    Hi everyone,

    Ironing mountain demolished with no help from DH - he's not home yet, still on the train because he met a Japanese couple on the tube who were lost and in danger of missing their train so he took them to get on their Eurostar!!

    Discount Diva I'm from the home of the RSPB, where are you from?

    Martyn, sorry can't offer you a berth - DH might think it a bit odd.

    Ok Martyn I'm right near Blackpool, so you can come to se me just before MORWENNA;) ;) I have an aquaroll spare too:D :D

    Far be it from me to sound uncharitable (I had to have 4 goes at typing that word :o ) but I am a Motorcaravanner. I moved "up" from a trailer caravan years ago (wait for it...) and have got used to home comforts such as on-board fresh and waste water tanks. I'm not drinking water that's been through a piece of old rubber hose thank you.

    Aquaroll, how passe :D

    Redruby stamps foot and sticks lip out at being gazumped by Suesy Sue :wall: :think:

    For God's sake, is that it?? Am I not worth fighting for?? You can't give up so close to the final whistle. Check your 'fridge for a pot of dripping, (or carrot cake/vanilla slices/egg custards or anything like that :o ) that might be all it needs.
