Aye, probably. I have to admit I'm a bit of a speeder at times, mainly on quiet country roads (not that that's an excuse) I'm better than I used to be though.



Been doing it for ages, written a really dull report (made most of it up, hope no one checks) thought I deserved a little diversion and no one was about.

Mods can read our pm's?!

Only the ones that you send us.

You read one GML sent to me, and another mod, can't remember who said they could read them. I'm not saying it's necessarily a bad thing, say, for example if people are sharing illegal streams that the site could get sued for.

I can't - unless it was a multiple recipient one?



Just in case - I can see things written on HullKRfans, where I post occasionally as well. That is where I found out about you almost winning the sponsor thing.

Admin might be able to if there is a report of abuse, I'm not sure - they won't be routinely screening them.

Ah, okay. I shall put my indignation away and offer my apologies for jumping to conclusions and besmirching you noble reputation in public.

Too much?

About right.



Holiday update...

Strasbourg and Reims in September.

I wanted to do Reims-Troyes-Dijon, but Mild Rovette 'improved' on my idea. At least it was my idea, and one original element remains!

Any prizes for most entertaining and diverting thread and poster? 'Cos this is one winning hands down.

Good job I'm a boffin.

Nice, went to The Ardennes a couple of years ago with Ms. Terrorists work, stayed at a little Michelin starred farmhouse and visited Épernay and Reims.

I'd recommend Pommery in Reims, very traditional House with beautiful friezes carved into the chalk.

I probably preferred Épernay, but I can't remember why, I'd had a lot of Champagne.

If you get the chance, it's worth checking out some of the smaller Houses, very good vintage Champagne to be had at rock bottom prices.

We're off to Dubrovnik in September.

Who Obergruppenführer Mild Rover?

I know, and he tells me off every day for it, even when I'm being good!

Sat here and the window cleaner is on his ladder across the road... men often expose their butts but come one I can see the dimples and he is a big lad!! way too much on display is that

Get your phone out and post a picture than.

Gingerspice will love it.

Is there anywhere in this lovely country where a young couple can take a baby for a short break without having to remortgage the house first? I begrudge paying for a 3 day trip in the UK when it costs the same as a fortnight in Turkey.

Someone on here must have been somewhere nice recently and been pleasantly suprised by the prices? I wont hold my breath.


Enjoyed reading your posts Sandra - felt out of my depth to join in, though.

No I bloody won't yuk

I doubt it, they're mainly rubbish.

Went to a nice little two bedroom cottage in Ambleside earlier in the year which wasn't eye wateringly expensive. Obviously you'll need to steer clear of the school holidays. The opportunistic price hike would really annoy me if I had kids.

How is little eve doing is she sleeping well hope ur all getting plenty of rest, lovely ur first little holiday all together

Might just go on the ferries, Belgium has some lovely places to unwind. I remember Blankenberg as a child, would love to see it from an adults perspective and see how different it looks. For some reason I remember giant sand castles.

My only problem with this is it being a bit far away if we encounter any problems, foreign hospitals and costs... You may have noticed I dislike spending money unneccesarily.

She's being really good actually, We're quite lucky. Sleeps most of the day and has a feed at around 3.30am but goes straight back to sleep after it, mum-mum expresses some milk durin the day so that I can do a night feed to give her a rest, She can polish off a 150ml bottle in about 2 minutes.

Friends of ours went here earlier on this year, think they said it was £100 a night, they loved it. www.lundholmefarm.co.uk/ We went to Cyprus early May this year, it feels so long ago now. We usually book a cottage in the Lake District or Whitby in Sept, but we have a few things going on this year so we can't fit it in, so nothing planned until Easter next year.
