    I probably won't be able to go :( My weekends off are all full except where I have just Saturday or just Sunday off!

    ETA: Yes Maty, hope you have enjoyed all your travels?! Was just thinking yesterday you have been quiet but remembered you were off on a jolly x

    Off course Miggy. However, sandwiches must be cut in the following way:

    I've been discussing my pension scheme with my financial expert (the bloke in the papershop) and this is a way of increasing, by up to 12 times, the chances of a scratchcard win.

    US of A was restful. We were lady's that lunched or at home drinking tea, gossiping or watching DVD's. A small amount of sightseeing and shopping. To be fair our activities were curtailed a little because my pal had recently had an operation on her ankle and couldn't walk too far. Who cares, it was a break and helped to keep it a bit more MSE.

    Miggy, you are very welcome to join us.

    Pyscho, Great minds re Nicca! We could do it as a day trip - early start, late finish? Nicca can have a bed at mine for a night or too and I can practice my veggie cookery on her :D

    Oh no, nothing like that. We will need a designated driver.
