    No Bob, it stopped ages ago but obviously deeply ingrained in my mind! I take it you remember Bob the gamekeeper too then?:D

    If that was the evil Irish chap then yep:D i just googled it and they stopped in 2003. I loved that woman Mrs Mac? With the hats and her sister who was the nice one but the same actress:rotfl: Priceless.

    Me too, I've just been given a chocolate bar which I enjoyed immensely. I wish I could go and see my mum for a bit, but it's not practical at the moment. Will ring her tomorrow and see if she is still planning on coming to see me.
