Hi Mrs Dagboy

Our thanks also to you and everyone else who arranged the day out on Coochie. We all had a great time.

PC up & running again - found out it had put itself into 'sleep mode' after being without electricity for so long in the container - lazy bugger!

Anyway - look forward to the next meet but will make sure I keep out of photo when I'm stuffing my face on steak & salad!

J C Slaughter Falls would be a good spot - lots of room, veyr pleasant.

Dawn, don't forget the Girlie Night Out - looks like April 16th at present .....I'll try and find the thread to drag it to the top.

I wouldn't bother - I have met this councillor at a social function just before the recent elections. Very smarmy indeed - and once he realised we didn't have a vote he got that glazed over look.....

Anyway - it's not without reason that someone scrawled an expletive over his poster at vicky point shopping centre (and NO - it wasn't me!!!)
