CLOSED - THANKS to all customers for the last few years

Black coffee please :O(

socs, however that doesnt always work, for spaceman the day after sunday does mean work, however the one a week later will ;-(

Keaydian, help yourself, I also recommend a wrm danish, on cold winter days like this they warm you up nicely.

Morning from NY, bright and sunny here we are overlooking the East Siver from our 31st floor hotel room. Looks like today will include a visit to the Museum of Modern Art and possibly a trip to Harlem, its funny how much of a barrier to the rest of Manhatan central Park is, in the 25 years since I first visited NY I have only been past the park once.

I hope you are putting in a nice amount of early Xmas shopping whilst you're there...speaking of which, my list will follow shortly.........
;>)

Bunny, hand luggage only, just got space for a couple of CDs ;-)

Do you know Central Park was copied from the first municipal park in the world
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birkenhead_Park

xamaxfranco, I didnt know that but the picture of the boathouse is certainly very similar to some of the building on central park. I love central Park in the winter especially on Sundays.

Rats! ...........(thinking)


..........................





OK got it!
I'll mail you a suitcase - ahhh problem solved! ;>)

I'm here, did you miss me?

'xamaxfranco' Hello and welcome, if you are to visit here regularly can we shorten your name? I can't get my typing fingers to sort those letters out :-)
Hello Socco, have you been away.

I've been at work Opto, just for a couple more months and then retirement beckons.

Socco, you don't know how much you will enjoy your retirment and how busy you will be until ( everyone seems to think you have nothing to do) you have retired.

Morning tea and toast please with side pot of jam.

Oh dear 2 hours late, but toast and jam with tea for you :>)
Sorry, too busy clearing out the trifle drawer in the fridge ;>)

Ant tea and toast left for me please?

Another bright and sunny day in NY, I am at a hotel at 3rd and 45th on the 31st floor and just watched the sun rise over the East River, very nice.

Bunny, virtual shopping is fine, let me have your list.

Have to ask the ants if they will share any with you but otherwise we've got ordinary stuff you can have Spacie ;>)

Bulgari BLU please, perfume of course not EDC etc.
As many pairs of good jeans as you can lay your hands on, high waisted skinny fit size 2, reg length should be OK
10,000 marlboro lights - don't want to be greedy on that one....
OK now the other stuff.....

1/2 a ton of onion & seed bagels - bought from a deli of course, non of this supermarket crap.
4 litres of Clam Chowder please, the real fresh made stuff.
Of yes, rye bread (same specification as the bagels of course, no mass produced rubbish!) as many loaves as you can get.
As much as you can get of californian Cab Sauv
better get the chaps some Budweiser

Could you get those food/drink items on the last day Spacie please, about 1 hour before check in, so they arrive still fresh here?
;>)
