Guest Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 OK - that's me done - after tomorrow's morning service we're off on our hols to Scotland (just a wee step over the border into Dumfries and Galloway) I hope you all have a great day at the Omlet get-together - it sounds like great fun - and (rest assured) I've fixed up some good weather for you all.. I have dropped Star and Mrs Miggins off at Mels Eglu Retreats.. http://egluretreats.blogspot.com/'>http://egluretreats.blogspot.com/ Great setup - lovely people - (including three wee small boys to collect the eggs and crawl into the eglu to fetch dropped clips) - and complete peace of mind that they are being well looked after while I spread my sporran in the heather..... (as it were...) Mrs Miggins said (quietly) - can we stay longer??? anyway - did I mention Mel's Eglu Retreats http://egluretreats.blogspot.com/ (you even get a free cup of coffee and a chocolate biscuit!) behave yourselves while I'm away!

Cate in NZ Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Have a great holiday Phil, and a great holiday with Mel for Mrs Miggins and Star- it sounds like Mel's got a good set-up there, anyone offering chocolate biscuits as an extra has to be providing a great service Scotland's beautiful at this time of year, I love it, but I hope you've packed lots of insect repellant- they've got some very persistant midges up there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
