Betris. I find your comments rude and uncalled for. You are showing yourself in your true colours.

betris

We have posted that or similar no end of times between us in this thread and its predecessors m8. It might sink in one day.

Probably calling the guy a 'wimp'. He's trying to start and run a local business and to be held up at gunpoint is a VERY frightening thing. They took money and his ipod etc.... with a gun in hand.

My friend was held up, not with a gun but still with a lethal weapon and they threatened to use it to kill him. He was terrified. He had every right to be.

I dont think his plan to close a bit early makes him a wimp - I actually salute him for not closing down the shop, many would. Surely you dont mean it Betris?

I have had more guns pulled on me than john wayn.dont forget I was a usher in the kids grotto in iverpool

marisol

i don't know the meaning of that.

betris

a grotto is where the children (kids)of about 5 years old go and sit on father chrismas,s knee and tell father christmas what they want for christmas.usualy in the big stores before christmas they open a grotto and there are thousands of children (kids) lined up a taking turns to sit on his knee one at a time.the usher guides the que and organises the children in and out.

Just a quickie....some good BMI flights out, I have booked for 08/09/09 for a week.. £124 for two of us. East Mids to Faro. There are cheaper ones too but the days didn't suit us. £6.04 out and the same price return then plus the taxes and charges. No cases included

In the Express today there was a feature on a small Hotel at Estoi in Portugal. It looks very specilal from the article and its web page. www.montedocasal.pt The cuisine is gourmet, as are the prices. Nice to know of these places for 'special occasions' They serve dinner and lunch to non residents.
