Only joking, not very fair on the the other guys, Bells, CP, HPM, Sas, JD, plus there are lots of other people that may want to join in
I am not sure we have direct flights from here, well only in the summer from Alderney!

Maybe later when a few more people are around we can throw it open for ideas?

Warm and sunny here. Just waiting for the grass to dry off a bit and will run the mower round it!!

Just a few other bits and bobs then down the beach this afternoon for a tea.

Iron my shirts ready for work tomorrow and try and remember to get up in the morning!!

Not far from there. Guernsey but Sark is a lot smaller no cars and a fondness for sheep

We often have the RN in our waters they come ashore for the duty free stuff for the ships stores. Places like Sark are good for a day trip when the sun is out and things are open.

He would have been able to have a drink with a meal only on a Sunday and not just on its own. It was like that here until recently, the Sunday trading has been relaxed as at one time you could not get petrol on a Sunday!!

Canada is a good idea but a bit far for a weekend so we would have to go for at least a month
