    Just realised I am out for supper on the 24th :( So am going to have to leave the champers on ice so you can help yourselves. Just had another thought - when they do these re-runs, don't they knock on the door just to see if it is how they left it! Do you think that is why you received a call Mike? Billie xx

    Mike, is there space behind that chandelier for a wee one?

    Billie, how many times have you seen it? I've seen it three and a bit times... and when I say "seen", that's a bit grand! It's been on and I have been hiding or getting bombarded with questions I sometimes have to make up answers to!

    Mike, people at my work do often ask after you!
