10 yards? That doesn't allow enough time for your car to warm up. Or do
you take the bus?

There is one thing that does annoy me. Most, if not, all games that use
currency don't adhere to basic double entry book keeping principles.
Being reasonably tuned on to this, means that I can normally find ways
to cheat the system too easily.

Yes. To be fair on her, she does plenty of part time work to finance her
lifestyle. If you have bret brats, I can assure you that you worry about
them more and more as they grow older.

Ah. So the superiority of British public transportation is a myth after

Yes, a very Machiavellian tactic I've been on the wrong end of myself
on occasion, makes you wish you'd not held back in the first place.

I was in the Cotswolds recently and compared to Essex it's a drivers
paradise. Coupled with idyllic countryside and beautiful stone houses
I only wish my business would allow me to move there, I'd go tomorrow.
Alas, I need the filth of the East End to survive and I couldn't
handle the commute. On my next visit I will go down to Oxford for a
look, I always mean to but never seem to find the time.

I hope she wasn't reading over your shoulder when you wrote that, a

Nothing actually, it was a poor attempt at humour. If I do get up to
anything worthy of note I'll be sure to report it though, my
girlfriend never reads this stuff over my shoulder. She thinks the
fact that we've all been rehashing the same old stuff for the last
eight years is "The most boring thing she can think of", which at
least moves my sexual prowess up a place.

I'll look this up. I've been awfully remiss in my planning of late, I
should have got down to see the Lemster one weekend by now but work,
flu and other stuff keeps interfering (I suspect this is why he's not
speaking to me much, he carries a grudge something awful and does
Karate, I'm going to have to be at my most diplomatic). If I can I
would love to make the trip to the A36 though at some stage.
IOW eh? Never been, but they tell me it's surrounded by sea, how
strange.

The Viking is more than welcome to come as well if he's reading this. I
expect that he's close to the end of one of those contract thingys.

No, that's not it. I don't speak to you because you are a cockney

The A66 will serve you better - trust me on this. And far from being
surrounded by sea, it has the sea at one end, and mountains on the
other. Wish I knew how they did it for the money.

I'm just pleased that the mericans are teaching those evil terrorists sexual
deviance so that they can be a more modern country.
