        My four year old nephew got loads of presents, including an alien with three eyes which light up in the dark and double his bodyweight in chocolate. This was despite him being told that Santa wasn't going to come at all after he disgraced himself at his nativity play, which was held in the local church. He ran around and around the place all night, played peek-a-boo from behind the altar and then, for an encore, dropped his trousers. He was one of the three wise men, by the way. :heehee:

          No. Although at times we have thought that Damien might have been a good choice. :heehee: I think the problem was that he didn't want to be a wise man. He was an innkeeper last year, and thoroughly enjoyed sending the Holy Family packing.

              As Anne is now a Lady, then presumably you are now M Lord

              So M Lord
              Have you had the allotment boundary fence moved yet and what was the outcome
              Pray tell us M Lord

                    Wow. Kaz. Turkey. How neat. What a nice surprise. Guess he gets no fringe benifits from that in Turkey.

                      See post 25 above

                      It's in the hands of the Parish council as I wrote in post 17 of the topic actuallly dealing with the subject, nothing has changed since then (helpful link - http://gardenerscorner.co.uk/forum/...46-urgent-legal-advice-needed.html#post491778 )...hence no update on the topic, or here at this point.

                      Now back to Xmas Pressies...I also got some gardening socks and a gardening mug!, and some cash that will be used to buy some FB&B for the Lotty.

                      Steve...:)
