    Would it be easier if I drew up a schedule to come and visit you all individually?

    TBH Happy I think we were trying to keep the details off here and on the poll. You should have a message with a link from Psycho to the poll where you can see the discussion.

    I shall PM you.

    I'm not bringing my partner Happy, but we don't go out in public together very often :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: There is a train station, can't remember how far it is from the house but one of us can pop up and get you anyway.

    Mike, you are welcome here anytime :D I'll even cook ;)

    Happy Birthday SB, I wondered what all the sunshine was in honour of. Hope you are able to enjoy it.

    Happy Birthday SB!! :T:T:beer: :bdaycake::T:T

    It's my SisIL's birthday today too...she is 60, and celebrating by taking part in an     seniors international hockey tournament in a couple of weeks time! :eek: We plan on watchng two of her matches, near Edinburgh, having planned our holiday around this and DS2's rugby commitments.

    It sounds like we are a sports-mad family...well, only some of us!!     :oSaying that, DS1 is off on a 25 mile cycle ride this morning ...puts me to shame...perhaps I should get my pedometer out and see how far I can toddle today..or perhaps not! :rotfl:

    Have a lovely day...looks like rain for the next couple of days though.

    Butti - I can happily bring mine, but it is quite old. Happy to help out with hand sewing and happy for anyone to use my machine, because I will probably sew all wobbly knowing that others will be looking at it. Billie xx
