I must be the odd one out here because I had tickets to see her in Liverpool on the 18th October. I suppose I will have to make do with a refund.....

Is it something that hartley might wear on his head?

Nowt like a good bit of banter. Its like being at work again. Never a dull moment. As they used to say... "I hope this isn't going to be a battle of wits. I hate fighting defenceless people!" I've just added hartley to my 'foes' list so I can't see his posts anymore..! It makes for a much...

The wind turbine..! It's been lying on its side for a few weeks now. (I only knew cos I drive past it most days......)

The trouble is that my head slowly makes a deeper cavity in the pillow and in the morning my hair is all over the place and standing on end! I have a picture in my mind of you looking like this when you wake up............! :grin: http://www.oneguyfrombarlick.co.uk/gallery/image.php?album_id=346&am...

Have you tried Carrs breadmakers flour - it makes a lovely tasting loaf and it's the one I keep going back to after trying most of the various brands.

Is it your Christmas underwear Stanley.....?

Thanks Marilyn - it's just a pity that even with walking 10 miles a day I resemble Hardy rather than Laurel........!
