Griff - Signed up following various attempts to educate me, although I acheived some success with English Lang & Lit, Zoology and others - it was decided by the family that the Army was the best destination for me. Partly because I was in truth better at drinking, fighting, playing rugby and womanising than I could ever have been in the cloistered realms of Academia. Hence a damn good haircut and then the Service of Her Majesty. June - will pay especial attention to avoiding holes, nets etc. The Mem would doubtless refuse to pay the ransom and I'd be left swinging!

Top mum I may be GRIFF but Top Dad got the short straw,he took the lad home.... Said it was too wild outside for me to be driving I didn't argue

Feel like barfing at the thought of an Ulster Fry Yuck

But Eileen that's what I'll be expecting when I come to stay next summer. Don't worry though I won't expect you to watch me eating it.

We'll go out for breakfast,how's that? Fry smell lingers in the house,its disgusting

How kind is your OH - volunteering for the onerous duty of chauffeur. Mind you it does give him 10 miles worth of snarling at the young feller, by way of a "behave yourself" welcome.

Leah went too,so no lecture Real sore point with Hubby,first time a boyfriend appears on the scene.He'll get used to it
Think I might be on the sofa tonight,poor wee Lacey isn't enjoying this storm Would take her up with us but afraid she might get flattened or deafened with the snoring

Don't worry - it's not a one way thing. You could come over and stay with us in the Autumn. Put you in the East Wing with the Ghost! Feel sure you'd enjoy that!

Oh please tell me you have a ghost?
I really think we should arrange a Dogsey Weekend somewhere and all meet up.Definately a few on here I'd really like to see

My poor wee knuckles think I might use the proper tile tool next time
