As the title says i have been a little busy of late, but just to make all your day,s i have returned . we had a nice weekend away and i am now just about shaking off the ruddy bug, virus or whatever it was, not pleasant i can tell you. i had a shock this weekend as i said we were away and stayed in a hotel, a bl**dy expencive one at that. on going to the bar on saturday evening i ordered a scotch and a glass of wine and it cost just shy of a tenner . we got chatting to another couple and at the end of the evening i had spent £180.00 on drinks alone. {won,t be going there again}.

Gosh you as well Mike .. i might blame you for my bug instead of Andy! Very nasty. Glad you enjoyed your weekend away even with the bar bill.

Hi melanie, yes i just can,t put this virus,bug whatever it is down to one thing, i have had all sort,s of symptoms over the last week or so. it looks as if it,s going now thank god.

Mine started with a head cold but no runny nose or anything just a headache then the cough started and has continued ever since. Feel really tired and yuk all the time .. can't even be bothered with the computer either which means I must be ill !!

brian, your right there but for me the money does not come into play untill after the event so to speak. it was £5.00 for a single malt.
