Hmm, poker. Not something I've played for years. I seem to remember trying to supplement m student grant that way in the 70's! ;-)

Morning all. Fresh orange juice and croissants on the bar. You will have to cook your own FEBs as I am off out.
Fundy, Is the Kadinsky the hotel that you can buy a room in to let out and you get so many days per year to use yourself? Was considering this as an alternative investment.
Have a good day everyone!

Can I hide in the cellar for a bit? My husband is outside laying a base for my greenhouse ...... he wants a hand.
I would offer but I've got my nails to think about.

Watched it Fundy. If Spurs hadn't been so careless in defence giving 3 unnecessary goals away, you'd have lost that one too.

HELLO!!!!
Oh hi Hils, can you take these handcuffs off, GD's had me here for 2 weeks, think thats ample! Now whats this about a greenhouse, doesnt sound like something you would partake in? now a hothouse or solarium more like it! And I hear you've been losing a few pounds whilst exercising, bloody well done! but you have slackened off and have now regained some, not so good! lol
Now Bun I was going to ask if i could join the ex's club but I guess I'd be slightly cheating at the moment. I'm having difficulty making mine an ex! so I guess i dont qualify. Mind you I dont have to worry with that divorce thingy as I never got married but its still so hard to leave, still have house together, etc(25 years...yikkkks).

I never thought Chelsea would win the Premiership, but no doubt Robben is giving them an edge. Two horse race and should go all the way to the wire.
Fundy, probably going to Cheltenham Thursday and Friday. Just e.mailed Kandinsky to see if they have any rooms.

Good afternoon all. Good to see Cheltenham attracting lots of attention. Hotels are a problem during the festivals. The best ones are booked up months in advance and they are not always the biggest. Hightone has used the Kandinsky so he can give a first hand opinion. The hardest problem is getting from the hotel to the racecourse, traffic can be horrendous.

Afternoon all. So nice to see you back amberjane :-) Bunny is the chief of the ex's club but we haven't had any candidates for interview yet!!
Fundy, I am probably wrong about the hotel! Ripped out the article from a Sunday paper and it will come back to the top of the pile one day! I was quite interested because you could have 30 odd days per year to use it yourself and that would have been handy.
Afternoon Hils, Jeffmack!

JJ..same here today as yesterday; been out for luch with a gang of eight of us to Backsburg Winery for a Lamb spit-roast where they also did roast pots to die for. Now I'm not a bad cook but I've never done roasties like these, soaked in sea salt and real yum-yum jobbies.
Watching the West Brom game now, after it will be a dip in the pool and a laze but no scones here, bugger!
No clammering here for those crackling fires, perfectly happy with what nature has blessed us with.
Re Gloucester, I played for them in late 60's early 70's; funny if you were at Kingsholm cursing me for not having a clue what I was doing directing the pack.
Days of Mickey Booth, Eric Stevens, John Fidler, Dick Jardine,Alan Watkin,
Mike Burton, Alan Brinn et al,we had a great team;
no Courage, Heinekin Cup then but played mostly against that lot over the border in the valleys, Still get Xmas cards from a few of the Welsh legends
but gradually the list diminishes.
Spent a bit of time at "the Fleece" and can't remember the name of the rub-a-dub-dub on the west side of Ciren out past the Ag College, it was in a tunnel!
Did you go to the Ragged Cot at Minch or The Bear?

Tea is made now - scones, cakes and pastries for anyone that wants one. The chocolate gateau is well worth the calories:-)
Afternoon opto. Yes and no! I did all the uninstalling and re-installing. Interestingly, the e-trade chap told me the java version I had (Sun Microsystems) was not the one I needed, that I should use the Microsoft version. Well, when you go to the Microsoft homepage, it tells you it has been superceded by the one I had! So to cut a long story short, I went to system restore, set it back a week, then to java. com and my computer has recovered but I have given up on the e-trade demo, as life is too short! Your suggestion to uninstall was the saving grace, thank you.
