Hi bunny. A hot chocolate please. Couldn't agree more about the cost of return to school - although you were probably spared the new kilt!!!!!
DD, wait till they are 17, it is not tears of sadness when they head out the door to school!! Time does fly though so savour it.

Ah here's one you will appreciate JJ I know...
Number two son due to leave this morning at 10.30 for an 11am start...
It is 10.20 when he says Mum can you sew this up? and presents me with
a beautiful rip, all frayed the lot, in the sleeve of his blazer...
How long has that been there? Says I grabbing the sewing box.
Can't remember when I did it...err...before the holiday..
Priceless.....But we still love 'em - mad isn't it LOL

Sounds familiar bunny.....:-) Did "critical surgery" on blazer pocket myself at end of last term! Nice to be needed...?
Going to grab something to eat then switch on Working Lunch. It is reporting from the now famous (but not yet famous enough) Manston airport, so all PTG followers listen out.
Bunny, thanks for asking, it was a good break (too windy for the midges) but won't be racing back!!! Taking daughter's boyfriend along might have been a trifle ambitious!

jj,you can take them off are hands if you wish,they fight like a couple of boxers.
in 1 corner you have ballet dancer,with a 15 month advantage
and in the other corner you have the rugby playing brute.there only 6 and 5 years of age.

DD, they sound so cute and the right way round - older daughter definitely the way to go! I still have knee problems from being available for rugby tackle practice so be warned!

LOL Dave - ah you have a long way to go refereeing yet! Enjoy it cos
in no time it will be nothing but hormones, more expense and worrying
about their latest boyfriend or girlfriend ;>)
But in the meantime my money is on the ballet dancer, no matter how big
the boys are, the girls always manage to hit them below the belt!

the thing is this dancer dont fight just screem, we have to hold the rugby player back while she gets her hit in. but he`s lost without her. h is a real tomboy at times,she is happy ,,rock climbing fishing,football,and larking about in her wetsuit ,where as mr e is not to keen in the water,or climbing,but likes the rest.kids,,,,,,,,,dont you just love um,,,,,,,,,,i can`t eat a whole one all the same.

Yup, daughter will will on size basis till 15, then brain power thereafter!!!!
Manston airport didn't appear to have any travellers only staff which was a bit concerning - apparently it had been busy yesterday? Looked very swish though.

Saw the report on working lunch also JJ - although I don't hold any shares
but I know there's been a lively thread on here about planestation. Still
being one who - on the rare occasion I manage to go anywhere may I add!
goes from LHR - I can say I'm impressed, it looked clean for a start and
lacking the usual over-crowded chaos!

Quick cup of tea I think as am still trying to catch up.
What did you think of Working Lunch's report on MTN bunny? I agree Manston the place to fly from as a passenger, but as a shareholder ........ a bit more activity would please. LHR tends to be my airport too as EDI long haul limited or for the organised who plan well in advance!
Market still good - contemplating the crystal ball right now for likely movement next week for team choice :-)

Well as i said to Dave on the MTN thread, it wont do it any favours,
and the media can reach a whole load of small investors faster then
anything else can! I'm looking for a few more pence and I'm out, wasn't
in for the long term anyway, just trying to pick up a speculative profit
(it worked with MTN last year very well on basis of take-over rumours
etc) but this time once I'm out I'm staying out LOL
Let me know if you get any luck with the crystal ball..and if you do
leave it behind the bar it could be useful ;>)

Closing up now - not even a sign of Socs this evening, mind you it
is a lovely evening, too nice for sitting inside.
OK the glasses are washed, the hoovering is done and the bins are emptied.
Whoever's in next you'll find the keys under the second gnome to the right
by the front porch - must have a word with JeffMack when he returns...
I mean the chimney pots were one thing, but these gnomes really are a step
too far!
Over and out from the bunny..........;>)

My idea of a sugar-blast is a bucket of sherry trifle.
