Looks nice, Bri. Reading the description I'd be wary of taking up any offers of Scicilian hospitality if its any of these 'Wise guys'

After this years washout holiday and killing Bambi's mum or dad at 183mph, we could do with another holiday this year too

don't expect too much Alex. My mortgage was paid years ago and I am still skint.


Oh yes now paying for wife, children and grandchildren. Time to close the wallet.

Wish I could afford a holiday. I have to rely on the wife taking me with her.

I am under no illusion that I will have money when my mortgage is paid off, there is always something to take it!

Its irrelevant for the next 30 odd years anyway

Eurostar train just outside of Lille in France as we were coming back from Euro Disney. I was going to call it Bambi killer

I was listening to my Mp3 player when there was a clattering of stones and stuff on the outside. Train came to a halt and then the conductor announced after sometime that vthe train was so badly damaged we'd have to return to Lille to get on a replacement train.

Got off at Lille and when the train we were on was taken away, the whole of the lower spoiler had been wiped out. Plus one of the outside windows of the train had been shattered by the stones flung up.

No one was hurt, and the only bad thing was instead of arriving a Ebbsfleet at 21:30, we finally got in at 01:30

Free kitkats & water from Eurostar, and in fairness it wasn't their fault. Other passengers who'd missed their connections got a free taxi ride.

Sorry for the derail Bri

You were the prime suspect at the time, although ruled out quickly as you can't drive a train
