    Annnd you just can't miss the curry evening:thumbsup:

    @Freddy , bet you're only considering going because I aren't:psnp:

    It's not fair:cry3:...

      Ah Lolimac, I can cheer you up cos I can't go either - quite a long overnighter from SW France. :mad:
      It sounds a wonderful event and I'm sad not to be able to meet everyone, not least mr and mrs shiney!
      Thanks very much for the invitation shiney. If by some freak I can arrange to be in the uk at the right moment, I shall certainly come along.
      Very good luck with it and may the sun shine on the shineys! :spinning:

          Well, if you stayed B&B overnight, Freddy, it would be easier. I have to do a round trip of 420 miles but I stay overnight at a lovely Farm just down the road from Shineyland.:coffee::snork:

            Assuming I can sort Phil out, (and I'm sure I will be able too) I would really love to come along, but I don't drive - are you near a train station please? If not, I will harness up Baldrick and he can pull me along on a skateboard - I'm dying to meet you folk, I really am x

              There is a Station within easy reach of Shiney's.............and all you have to do is phone and one of us will pick up you from the Station and take you back whenever you want.:coffee::snork:

Thank you x That would be really great, I'm sure I will be coming - I won't be able to stay for the evening due to needing to get back for Phil, but I'm just looking forward to saying hi to everybody and waffling on about plants etc :0) x big THANK YOU x

                    Brilliant! I'm already excited (I did warn you I need to get out a bit more!) It will be the Saturday - Sunday is Baldricks 5th birthday. (Again, I repeat, I need to get out a bit more!!) :hapfeet:
