    Welcome home Mike!

    Well we were waiting for something deep and meaningful and you have just supplied it in buckets loads :T:T:T What a fandabidozee post :D I really am surprised that you can remember so much of Friday, it seemed to go by in a whirl for me.

    Miggy, I would love a bit of cake and will supply the bubbly to go with it :D

    Hi Mike, Welcome back and what a wonderful tale you tell. At least you weren't too dazed to take it in, that would have been such a shame. I enjoyed our few days immensley (sp) (getting late). We are all agreed that your face and those of Jack and Sam and the look of sheer joy will never be forgotten. It couldn't have happened to 3 nicer lads.
    All you have to do now is buy an ashtray and wipe your feet when you come in. Better still, take your shoes off. Oh and buy a bottle opener. Wouldn't have missed it for the world.

    Found a bottle opener and loads of new kitchen stuff I bought in 2008 and put in boxes.

    I have glass dishes! And spatulas! And round metal things with handles*... no idea what it's all for.




    * Pans, apparently....

    Aaah Mike, what a beautiful summary of your experience, got me choked up a couple of times and made me feel like I was back there again.

    Still grinning from ear to ear and so proud that this has happened to you.

    What else still amazes me is how lovely the tv people were. They would thank you for doing something for them and I was like "why are you thanking me? I am so grateful that you are doing this for Mike, I should be thanking you!"

    It was such a wonderful experience Mike and without you it would never have happened. Believe me, you thoroughly deserve it!

    All the best and lots of love,

    Poo

    Lets get this party started! I have my coffee, just need a small piece of cake and I'll be happy. I'm not very high maintenance! lol

    You're Poooo! I seen you on that wotsit - that telly thing! Without me it wouldn't have been necessary. I had a very close shave there and I'm sooooooooo grateful I was saved at the last moment!

    Peanut?

    And then I fell in love with my funny little house all over again.

    It's not a funny little house, IT IS A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE HOUSE :rotfl: And now it has the chance to be a proper happy home for you and the boys.

    It all looked so wonderful until the removals people brought my rubbish back. Gonna take weeks to find the floor again.

    Got the epicentre of my business empire wired up this afternoon and am now able to speak telephonically again.

    Also got my stereo up and running. Got me choons on nice and loud. Feeling ready to partay!

    Oooh, vol-au-vents! Don't mind if I do...

    The website seems to be about a week behind the paper version. Have a look next Thursday.

    Even Killerwatt was quoted!

    Mike, the pictures appeared today, but can't find any editorial. Can you scan the editorial and post it on the thread? Pretty please. I left an email on the Gazette site requesting a copy but no reply.

    Just a thought
