Wol's Riverbank tales: Part 3 Restoration
Comments

Hurray for getting the right screw ( so important ) & your home back.
Echo what others have said about wanting to see you rather than homestyle perfection & are there any pitches left for my little tent in case I lose a fight with a large Gordon ? I think I have secured overnight sitter for DD so it could be a tad too tempting ...0 -
Thanks for the tip Numpty and the reminder to book my tickets. I get cheap coach tickets because I claim the disabled rate:rotfl: I am thinking of coming down on the 29th July and coming back on 2nd of August.
I tend to go into The Travellers Rest for a Baileys Latte, I try not to wander too much.
Those dates are fine Horace - you can have front bedroom for the duration. (Although Lula might need to pitch her tent in there on saturday night :eek::rotfl:) You'll be sharing the bathroom with Taxi and her daughter (Numpty has been volunteered to use the stream :whistle:) But be advised - no touring will be possible until after The Rave as I might be a tad busy.
Please let me know your dietary requirements so I can make sure I [STRIKE]don;t inadvertantly put you in hospital [/STRIKE] have the right food in
Hmmm - Looks like there could be a mini-Rave the day before The Rave (provided of course everybody - girls AND boys..all 6 of them :eek:.. have done their quota of chopping/mixing/cooking/furniture moving/building BBQ's etc .before we eat..;):rotfl:)
So - for anyone who is around the day earlier - - Dinner on the friday night will be at 8.30pm and your presence will be very welcome . Please let me know so I can make sure we do enough Yorkshire puddings...and find you a few tasks to do in advance :rotfl:
Oh I DO hope the weather is good (as I haven;t a clue how we will manage if it is raining although there is always Piggie Palace) and I am SO now looking forward to it :j:j:j:j- At least 12 DFW's will be here and approx 25 top totty builders with their families plus a few of my other friends/ neighbours
It's going to be a great day and I have already worked out that everyone coming has at least one thing in common with someone else ...(and that's besides being DFW/MSE :T)....oooh apart from my Bank Manager (I'lll just keep him on the vino and he will be fine :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:)
P.S. Booze arrived today courtesy of Topcashback and a Sainsburys 25% off...I insist i have to try all bottles beforehand to make sure it is up to scratch :rotfl::rotfl:
And don;t worry - I have an interesting list of ingredients for the "sans ethanol cocktail" brigade so they can experiment to their heart's content (which will be sourced as and when according to the next "special offer")...and YES - I Have parasols and a shaker :rotfl::rotfl:
