Evening all, been a lovely day here.
LW also dislikes marmite but Mrs LW loves the stuff..
Socs re your post 5277 I thought you 'Flying types' didn't resort to using 'Andrew' language; what is happening in the world!

Morning all on this temporarily sunny Monday morning!!
Opto - the nearest the bunny got to the marathon was watching it
on TV whilst doing the mountainous pile of ironing in the warren
on Sunday...bit wet for them all though poor dears...
Marmite...interesting idea...do you eat it or bathe in it?
We learnt the hard way that the little critters like dark
colours and that was why all the locals wore these bright
yellow water-proof/shower jackets whilst we wore our dark
blue midge magnets......
Anyone who backed WHSmiths WELL DONE!!!! and I hope you have
bagged yourselves a tidy profit! Now I want the same thing to
happen for either M&S or Matalan (not fussy, either will do!)

Very dull here in Scotland - weather pretty dull too! No midges in sight although I think they would be preferable to the smell of marmite....yug!
Stockbunny, I am willing M & S on too as I didn't think it could go lower when I bought it but how wrong was I!? Something nice and hot to drink would be welcome.

HOOP JeffMack???
No seriously, hello you in deepest warmest Spain??
OH NO VASEY!!! I didn't think about the game to be honest, I
remembered some on the board jumping in when Smiths first dropped
and buying in, but oh ouch for you, thank goodness its not real.
JJ50 - OK we'll start a prayer circle for M&S then, all positive
energy focused towards a take-over!! I bought in (supposedly at
the low (?!) around 274p, hoping for 330p in 6 months....hmmm..
Quick wave to T-I-M!!!!!!

M&S is a basket case - overpriced clothes, food and everything else, including the share price; stonking long term short, if you are into shorting.

Ahhh no post holiday blues I hope....Did you get some decent R&R
JeffMack? Hope so.. so you are back to the salt mine, never mind we
have kept your place free for you and your pick is where you left it.
T-I-M You can't beat Marks and Sparks knickers or socks for you guys
or their tea-cakes for that matter. Seriously, over-priced they may be
but the queues for the tills in my local one are always stacked high
with 'grey voters' doing their bits of food shopping - much of which
seems to involve buying 'goodies'like cream cakes,desserts,puddings,sweets!
Which begs the question - when you get to retirement age, is there some
kind of sudden craving for all those 'naughty' foods from childhood??

Talking of "naughty" foods, just served some really good Kent strawberries on scones piled high with cream and I thoroughly recommend to you all. Well received by son and friends who were slipping in to declining spirits with back to school tomorrow! I, on the other hand, have big smile on my face with prospect of tomorrow. Kent must have been having a lot better weather than Scotland as a strawberry would have been blown away here.
Stockbunny, keep up the promotional scam for M & S - someone must want to buy it. I like their tea-cakes too and that millionaire's shortbread ....... well, better get back on the ball and check what is happening. Anything to avoid those capital gains tax pages on the tax form!

Actually I liked the Costa Brava much more than I thought I would. Weather was OK most days except Friday when it tipped it down all day. Saturday we were in Tossa De Mar and most of the car park had fallen into the river that flows into the sea. There were lots of rock slides.
Ryannair flights were on time and not too crowded, had a Merc 170 hire car for 60 for 6 days and hotel was truely wonderful.
Only drawback, work tomorrow.
