    Back home I put our Marks haul on the carpet to take photos and then went to get the iPad, came back to find Ronnie, our very large elderly tom cat sprawled on top :rotfl:
    So I had to evict him before doing the photos :D

    Started sending messages and photos to eldest child but my messanger has the vexing and beyond annoying habit of reverting back to the last person I messaged.
    So eldest son now knows how much his sisters new underwear cost and has photos :eek: :rotfl: - fortunately not modelled

    Very very embarrassing but I think they are used to having a weird mother now :D


    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: This really made me laugh, I can just imagine - something I would normally do :rotfl:

    What did you win?
    it was a while back (1999) but won 10k worth of holidays which were tailor made for me - I went to Singapore and stayed in the Oriental, went from there on the Eastern and Oriental express-through Malaysia stopping in Penang and Bridge over river Quai. Then through to Bankok and stayed in the Shangri-La and then on to Phuket and stayed Dusit laguna.
    There was spending money and enough holiday over to take six of us to Tenerife all inclusive too XXX
    Did you know Thomas Cook have a whole department that only book holidays for competition winners (well they did then) ;)

    I was very lucky to be upgraded to a suite on the Eastern and Oriental- probably as I was in my new linen suit (English and their holiday clothes) and the germans were practically in their lederhosen lol x

    Wow underperky, you have done some traveling, I admire that a lot :)

    Always been a passion of mine Canada Nova Scotia and Niagara Boston Gibralta all the Spanish islands and various mainland spain Tenerife Lanzarote Portugal Turkey Lisbon Austraila 4 places New Zealand 4 places Vietnam Hawaii Phoenix Arizona Germany France Holland Greece and islands Miami all the Keys Suez canal Egyot Jordan Philippines Dubai Sudan Italy Panama canal Soshua India Have had helicopter rides over Grand canyon Hollywood Niagara falls Somai ...and they are all I can remember but am sure there is more ..
    I loved it when our local airport would do CHEAP last minute deals ...I went to America after any weather disaster cheap as chips ...to los angeles after the killing of a black American dirt cheap and went to Boston on a really cheap deal only when got there did I realise that was where the trial of the cop who killed the black American was being held .....I went to America a few times and arrived back into here on the morning of the 24 th December call in M&S on way home from airport buy xmas dinner done and dusted by boxing day These flights were £29 return ...for some reason folks don't want to go away 2 weeks before xmas ..... I do
    I did a world cruise on my own in 2013 ...before I got too old to do it alone and would love to do another one ...who knows I might meet a rich man who wants to sweep me off my feet around the world
    That has certainly given my brain a good workout thinking of all those places
    So many memories

    What is this weird game we are playing with the very long list?
