    I'm fine ta chick. I'm here from time to time...then a small minority drives me mad and I disappear for a few days and come back :rotfl:

    Was looking at the Manchester pics yesterday. Hard to believe it was well over a year ago.

    Is Auntie Smashed raving with you?

    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 :D) 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

    Oh no, don't tell me they all have wives and families - how disappointing:(. I was hoping you were planning a mini emergency so we could get them to do a bit of work prefereably sans shirts :D:D

    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:

    I'm driving down the day before Wol, had intended to eat at the hotel, didn't want to impose too early.:)

    Wol, you sound so much lighter, how lovely to hear that in your tone! I'm working in London the day before, so I won't be one of those joining you on the Friday, but I'll be grooving along. And I should have my new camera by then, so I'll be taking *lots* of piccies.

    Thank you.
    Thats right - real veggie (no fish!) but otherwise hopefully not too much trouble, eat pretty much everything else.
    If you need anything bringing down do say (aside from dandelions and alcohol!).

    There are lots of amazing people here, I'm not great at phoning people though. Facebook is my friend :p
