    This summer I FINALLY got round to hanging an advertising poster I have had since 1982!...

    if have written cards brag about it ceaselessly because it will annoy people :rotfl:

    Mmm, I have things like that, maybe not quite so old :p

    ...and don't disappear in your own smug cloud with the cards, we would have to send in a search party :D. Gift shop owner looked upset the other day when a friend and I mentioned the C word and said she refused to think about it until after bonfire night, was wondering about sending piggers in to put her straight.

    Have utilised child labour to tidy LR and am off to make tea, laters. x
