Good Day (28)

i have just come back from austria which is very nice -the place we stayed was a small village called  niederau very little there but fantastic scenery.

been four times  so ready for a change next year (abroad) we will be having some short breaks over here later on. yorkshire,devon,by coach.

Can't think of ferrets without thinking of Compo!

They eat tripe over here too, yuk!

James, ever think about a trip abroad to the USA?

many times ruth i would love it but i dont think i could handle the flight it would be too long --i can just handle 4 hours and thats too much.

i could never stand that programme.

we dont see a lot of tripe for the simple reason there are not too many butchers shops a sad state of affairs i will have to make a comeback.

They sell it in the Asian supermarket by my house.  Yes, the flights can be a bit grueling.  Phx direct to Heathrow on BA was 10 hours.  Last time we flew Delta through Atlanta, but it was still about 8 hours from Atlanta to Dublin.

I would love to see small neighborhood shops make a comeback.  They're virtually non-existent over here, unless they're in some upscale (AKA expensive) tourist area.

Little boy comes out of the bathroom and goes in to the kitchen where his mother is mixing a cake.

"Can I lick the bowl Mummy ?"

Mum replies "No, pull the chain like a normal child"
