    Welcome back all of you pleased to hear that you have had a wonderful time and have done a stirling job. Hope to hear from Mike soon. I am sure you are all exhausted and that we were thought of now and again, just feels odd with all the "inuendoes" of the last few days, cos they mean very little to us. Yes I am feeling very envious and a little left out, but nothing could be done about it so I will have to grow up and live with it. Poo you have made me laugh because at first when you were talking about "Satan" I thought you were referring to OH and of course it was you trusted vehicle. With the first thought in my heard I was convinced a divorce was on the cards. Anyway off to do the ironing so will catch up later. Sorry if I have been like a spoilt chid, but so wanted to be there as in from the beginning. Loves you all. Billie xx

    Thanks Billie - Don't feel left out, we never stopped thinking of you and wishing everyone was there with us. SB was determined to remember everyone who could not be there and I have a lovely photo of SB bending over a crew truck whilst three of us signed her T Shirt with the name of everyone we could think of on the thread. So you were there in spirit as SB went about her jobs.When I find out how to put photos on the thread I will post a copy.

    Yes we are tired. Most days it was 8 or 9 0'clock at night before we knocked off and headed for the pub!! Friday it was a 8am start and 10.30pm before we made it home from Mike's. Tired but happy and wouldn't have missed it for the world.

    You are certainly not behaving like a spoilt child. I feel very lucky to have been able to go and know how disappointed and left out I would have felt if I had been stuck at home. Although I have to say you were all hysterical at keeping the thread going and seemed to have had a fine time of it :D

    We chatted about all of you all of the time (and SB could even tell you what post number she was referring to as she said it :D - That really is dedication for you). We wanted you all to be a part of it and you really were.

    A return to Littlehampton is called for in the future - wonder if we could do it for the screening????? - and everyone is welcome to come. We can share rooms, share cars, reduce costs by getting people part way to a car with available space - whatever it takes. With enough time to plan it can be done.

    I thought it was a dog, and it was a bit off saying another one was being looked for while poor Satan was still breathing his last :rotfl:

    :hello:

    Lots to catch up on, not sure where to start! :o

    :grouphug:Poo, Niccatw, Psycho, Maty, MW...thanks for texts, glad everyone is home safely, miss you all already! (I DID try to text back :o, I'll learn!)

    BILLIE, MIGGY & HAPPY.....:A You're all wonderful but totally bonkers! :rotfl:

    No-one was left behind, I take you with me where ever I go! :o

    Romance was most definately in the air in Littlehampton and a reliable informant (Nick Knowles!) had made mention of a certain DIY SOS member ( namely Julian!) :p losing his heart to one of our mse'ers (namely ?:p) but after meeting her, I can understand how easily she can win your heart! :D

    Niccatw's post about missing componants was all of you that were unable to attend, it was the ONLY sad thing about the last few days! You were NEVER forgotton! :A;)

    june.elizabeth...I hope the sun shone brightly on your DD's wedding, I wish you'd post everyday just so I could read your signature! :)

    Butti, Sorry I missed you honey but well done on taking part in Race for Life. YOU HAVE MORE FRIENDS THAN YOU KNOW! ;)

    Killer watt & nice builder man PAUL, sorry I never got the chance to buy you a pint but glad I had the chance to shake your hand, I think you're smashing! Ditto to QUIET SPARK, didn't get the chance to shake your hand but would have if I'd known! ;)

    RAS.. Glad you reposted a quote from Mike from the beginning of this thread, who'd have thunk it! :A

    more to read & catch up with, back in a bit! :)

    Hi SB, I don't think I can add much more to this, you've summed it up beautifully!

    PB, I think we should name SB's mobile Satan because it kept showing the message had been saved rather than sent, that's why you got it so many times! That phone has deffinitely got the devil in it! Or maybe we should call it Beelzebub or Lucifer just to save confusion!

    Happy, Miggy, Billie and I think pretty much everyone else, you were all mentioned many times throughout the days, none of us forgot you and we were all extremely grateful for your patrols and keeping the thread tidy! You were all missed but not forgotten.

    MW, thanks for the call, battery died on my mobile when I called you first time! Doh! Glad you got home safe and well.

    Will post again when I've read some more so I don't miss anyone.

    Poo

    They said it was for tears, but I reckon it more like the fear of following through after all that windy-pops.

    Yes that wind blowing in from the sea does tend to make your eyes water.

    Forgot to mention that when we landed in the Pub at night, Niccatw used her BlackBerry to call up the thread and she read everyone's posts. That reminds me, Niccatw where are you? are you still at that health spar, sipping Pimms and being pampered? Enjoy, after all that driving you deserve it.

    :rotfl:Oh dear you are not back on that subject are you...girls please, it was bad enough last night!

    Maty, you would not want to share a room with the three I had dinner with last night!!!! Wind did figure in the conversation, but it sure weren't blowing in from the sea kind of wind. :rotfl:
