Morning all it's bitter here this morning.

John did say that he had got some work on, it's why he had to cancel his plans for a trip to Birmingham. Now I'm not sure if he said it was for a London Firm or that he had got to go to London.

Hello Lyn, and thanks, beautiful sunny warm day here at the moment, just had a bottle of whiskey given to me by the newsagent.
How are you doing and what are you doing today.

John

Do you know I still have bottles left that were given to me as Christmas gifts by different outfits who worked for us or that we used. Dave and myself used to get so many that I had to give some away or else they just mounted up from year to year.

I do like the german market Lyn, watch the prices though.
The sweets last year were a good buy, very unusual flavours never seen before and quite cheap at £2.50 a bag.
Will have a couple of tots tonight watching Gill.

John

Where is that, it looks like Jiggins Lane?

Lyn

Sorry it has been five going on six since I retired and even though I'm not supposed to touch it, its amazing how many colds I get in a year. Plus the many visitors we have often like a dram so I'm afraid my stock has dwindled.
