I have hours and hours and days and days worth of calls to any UK number for just a few euro

And I'm sure you're an easy guest. You'd have to be to get along in this house anyway as we certainly do not stand or ceremony or dress for dinner or retire to the drawing room for sherry. You'll be lucky some mornings if you're first in the bathroom. It sounds to me like you're ready to muck in and that's the kind of person we like. Of course - if the OH is at home then he can muck in and you and me girl can party

Otherwise I have to try and do Nottingham from Bristol

I'm used to a chaotic kid-based routine at my sisters, so I reckon we'll be fine

Saying that - depending on what dates you're here - you might have to tag along to one of little Alex's matches and cheer his team on. I know sweet FA about footie so you might be able to give me a few pointers. Just a few mind......... I have no intention of becoming an All Americam Soccer Mom.

Then after the match we can call pizza boy to deliver pizzas at home and do away with the siver and porcelaine and Waterford crystal.

Do I get the pizza boy as well or is he extra?!!

Hmmm might have to check the make of moped first, if its a Vespa or Lambretta, no way!!! I have a few standards left
