Hi,

[Tashi]

Just got home fron a two week residential course at a Cambridge Uni.
It was lovely driving along the Seafront, Sea like a millpond, blue skies, gorgeous.
Don't know what anyone else is doing but I am down the Local for an hour or so later on.

Any one got any good plans for tonight/ the weekend.

[ummmm]

Fraid not. I might go to the shop and buy some wine and ice cream.

Hi!

[dunnitall]

Like your plan ummmm..cud be me too xxx

[david small]

Hi Tashi I will wallow in the paddling pool, then sit in the shade for a while. Then find a cafe by the beach for tea and ice cream.

[NoMercy]

Apparently we're not having a drink tonight as we've too much to do tomorrow. We have 13 viewings of the house starting at 10:30am.

I might just run over to the shop whilst he's down the bottom of the garden and then mysteriously find a bottle of wine at the back of the fridge I must have forgotten was there...

[NoMercy]

We've just had a couple knock at the door, announcing they were our 6pm viewers. We explained that there must be a mistake as we're not doing viewings today. They went off in a huff and the chap said to the woman, "They don't sound like they want to sell that house."

I think I need a glass of wine after that ... ;)

[Tashi]

Like your plan DS, we are lucky, we live on the Sea Front, it is gorgeous.
Enjoy the wine ummmm.
Hi Sqad.
Sounds like a busy weekend Nomercy.

Since when has Cambridge been on the sea???

[237SJ]

I love it when the sea is like a millpond - that's when you see porpoises

[Tashi]

237, sadly not in Herne Bay so far :-(

[DTCwordfan]

not even Balders floundering around in the water with a fin strapped to his back??? Good viewing from the pub I bet.

[Tashi]

Had not thought of that DTC, it is a good view from the Local,
going to have to get Baldric measured up for a Fin.

Lovely up here too Tash. The sea is like blue glass, and it is so warm, and still, it is almost breathtaking. Big weekend locally with the Armed Forces Day tomorrow. HMS Somerset in Llandudno Bay and the Red Arrows at noon tomorrow. We may yet brave the restrictions and traffic and take a close look. I was at a funeral of a pal this morning who was a really amusing man and your mention of Cambridge made me smile anew at a story related by his butty during the service. I will give myself 5 and retell it.

[Tashi]

Never been to Cambridge before.
There were 18 of us on the course so we hopped a bus into the centre a couple of times, it was good.

The late Will "Fix It" was laid to rest today. His best mate, and he had a lot, told a tale of the time they drove from N.Wales, overnight to deliver quite a substantial heavy load to a property in Cambridge. The goods were safely dropped off and they were well paid and they made the return journey. It was obvious that they were tired and fed up because there was no chance of making it back in one fell swoop so they decided to top over in Birmingham for the night and take a chill. They fetched up in a bar in the Bull Ring and went into an empty place for a "pint". Pretty soon the place filled up with fairly young and well to do youngsters and obvious future achievers. Will being Will was soon getting on with them like a house on fire. They loved his voice and Welsh accent. He had a sort of serious Richard Burton timbre delivered with a permanent smile. Pretty soon two very young Spanish girls were eagerly chatting and making enquiries of him and where they were from etc. There was now quite a considerable audience listening and joining in when Will asked them what they were doing in UK. We are going down to Oxford to study they said. Very good said Will, we are just up from Cambridge. What were you reading? One of them asked. Well I was reading gas meters and he was reading pornography mostly said Will. Cue the place collapsing with hilarity. My mate Will.

Mightymouse, reread tho OP, you really are a Richard.
