Re: The KIWI BAR
My parents are in St.Helens, Lancs so that's our base. We are bored senseless! Though in it's wisdom, the council has erected a "beach" in Church Square. A 20ft sq sand-pit, 3 donkeys & a couple of small fairground rides!!! Now what's the word I'm looking for, hmmm...... oh yes, TACKY 
We shall be heading down to Staffs & Derbys next week to stay with friends & catchup with ex-work colleagues in Derby & Burton
Then we are going to Sherwood Centerparcs for our last full week, so we should have a 'holiday' then. I can't wait to get back home 
. I don't feel the need to come back here for at least another 5yrs at least!

Re: The KIWI BAR
True, but there were road works. Also , one beer is measly by anyone's standards.

Re: The KIWI BAR
Well done on your nomination Dewb09. You can have the rest of my bottle - feeling a bit rough after last night. Goooooooo All Blacks etc.
May never drink again ....
Has Irish_Eyes been in yet? The Frog and the Cow are still battling it out with their handbags so I've stuck their Bolly back in the chiller.
