    If The Asheron Period does happen, then I am off down to LIR's with a bag of Scotch and some sewing equipment...nearer than Hamish' place...I think I would have died of dehydration on the long walk up the M1.

    Might be an idea to wait until we have a working loo!
    After that, maybe one long party for the rest of life. I've been reading about houseowner ship for a few years here now and I know that our lives are about to change: we will be taller, slimmer, more popular, more successful and able to hang pictures wherever the hell we want without asking anyone first.

    Brilliant news lir, I'm really thrilled for you.

    Any chance we might find out who the secret MSEr who "looks like Bruce Willis" is before you complete?

    PS: if we find out it is Asheron I may eat my hat, or possibly one of fc's size 41s.

    Did they ever mention HPC or MSE? Maybe just a lone stranger who fancied a chat?

    I can't begin to tell you how disappointed I am. He was soo gorgeous in Moonlighting all those years ago. Still, at least my hat and fc's shoes are safe.
