Are you still there, and if so, did the Xmas break go well for you? Or did you fly back to the UK for the celebrations? Juss wanna kno... (Cooped up in sarf east London).

There is always the fear that asset-stripping would follow, poor investment policies instituted, eventually resulting in the land being sold off for other more profitable enterprises. I am not too pessimistic he...

I hope they succeed. That was a good review which should help them. Once you get to know the typical portions an eaterie supplies, you can trim your order accordingly.

You could get that one into Suzie's joke of the day!

Sorry to hear about your friends. I am still trying to get to Menorca to retire there, and I have one 15-year-old daughter and a 12-year-old son. My daughter may no longer be required to attend school by the time I settle in. My son is not keen on going, but that's mainly because he is glued to a co...
