Subject: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: jacqui.c Date: 26 Apr 04 - 04:44 AM Kendall here, I'm like a kid in a candy shop...so many things to do, so little time! So far, I have seen Hatfield House, Lincoln cathredral, Sherwood forest, a bit of London, Stonehenge, Glastonbury, Avebury, Camelot and Tintagle, thanks to my dear friends, Morticia and Jacqui C. I'm now in Hertford with Jacqui C. if anyone wants to contact me. I'll be at Hastings this weekend, and probably in London the following weekend. |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: Dave Bryant Date: 26 Apr 04 - 06:45 AM I'll have to start singing slightly different words to Sydney Carter's "Eros" song. First the Norman's conquered us, Now we've got the yanks sir, If you look like Kendall Morse, Then you know who to thank sir. Seriously, glad you're enjoying it Kendall, make sure you take it easy though. PS - Has Jacqui still got that silly smile on her face ? |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: Mrs.Duck Date: 26 Apr 04 - 12:55 PM Actually I passed a field with llamas in it on my way home from Barnsley this evening!! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: GUEST,harlowpoet Date: 26 Apr 04 - 01:21 PM There are Llamas in Harlow, in the town park at pets corner. Though if our council had its way it would have been built on by now. They're trying to build on every green space we have here Sorry for the thread creep Kendal, |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: karen k Date: 27 Apr 04 - 06:15 AM Kendall, You can't possibly be having as good of a time as I had. I've been home a little more than a week and my feet have yet to touch the ground. I'm so glad you are enjoying your visit. Can't wait to compare stories. You are coming to Old Songs, right? love ya, k |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: jacqui.c Date: 27 Apr 04 - 07:15 AM You bet I'm going to Old Songs |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: Dave Bryant Date: 27 Apr 04 - 11:57 AM It wouldn't be a bad idea if you logged in as yourself Kendall, instead of posting under Jacqui's cookie all the time. |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: Keith A of Hertford Date: 27 Apr 04 - 12:50 PM Kendall has now entertained the locals in 3 Hertford pubs, and one just outside in Benington. Perhaps he should log on as Kendall of Hertford? Keith |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: jacqui.c Date: 27 Apr 04 - 02:10 PM Kendall here - I dont' know how many Mudcatters live in this general area or what you have for spare time, but if you would like to get together for sightseeing or just hanging out and picking I'm here in Hertford at Jacqui's and available on weekdays during the day. If you have any suggestions you can pm Jacqui and I'll come back to you. |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: SINSULL Date: 27 Apr 04 - 10:14 PM Hey Kendall, your puppy misses you. A van pulled up today as I walked him and a man who looked a little like you stepped out. Seamus nearly pulled me off my feet getting to him then looked at me disappointed. He needs some rough play and a catfree house. Although he and Fred play together. Fun to watch. Mary |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: jacqui.c Date: 28 Apr 04 - 03:06 AM I dreamed about him last night. Give him a hug for me. How about you take something of mine, an old shirt or whatever, and leave it on his bed? I've decided to not stay the full time, but don't know yet just when I'll be home. 6 weekes is too long,I have so much to do on the boat, and I miss home. |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: jacqui.c Date: 28 Apr 04 - 03:11 PM Went to London by train today with Jacqui. Met Ellenpoly who guided me around the city. We went to the British museum where I saw some of the things I've always wanted to see. The Rosetta stone and the parts of the Parthenon which were borrowed by Lord Elgin. Spent quite a bit of time riding the double deck buses, which was a treat in itself. They put those things through spaces I wouldn't try a mini. Westminster cathedral, the big wheel and the Horse guards. If they needed guarding, why were they out on the street? On to Trafalgar Square, and to Downing street, but Tony wasn't around to let us in. |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: Keith A of Hertford Date: 28 Apr 04 - 03:19 PM A sailor like yourself would enjoy Greenwich, and of course the Tower nearby. I PMd some more local sites you could get to by bus. Keith. |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: Amos Date: 28 Apr 04 - 03:34 PM Kendall, I am so jealous I can't speak. You are a rat for having so much fun and me here working my butt off!! :>) But keep on enjoying it, Skipper. We miss yuh! A |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: SINSULL Date: 28 Apr 04 - 05:36 PM Just delivered Seamus to your house to be tended by Rebecca. He had a long walk in the woods and a ride in the car. My house seems empty without a large ball of fur tripping me up. I will get him a shirt to snuggle. Meantime my brother and his wife are visiting with THEIR DOG! A yippy little terrier who is spoiled beyond belief. Remember Martha and her little runt who was bathed after every romp in the garden? My poor cats. Give me some notice if you are coming back earlier. I will have to move out the renters. SINS |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: Deckman Date: 28 Apr 04 - 05:42 PM Damnit Sins ... you promised we could all come over and party at Kendalls house while he was gone. I remember you said that we didn't need to worry about the furniture or the neighbors!!! (hee hee) Bob |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: Geoff the Duck Date: 28 Apr 04 - 07:08 PM Shame if you will be leaving before the Yorkshire Gathering. We were looking forward to meeting you. Quack! Geoff the Duck. |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: Allan C. Date: 28 Apr 04 - 07:48 PM Hie thee to a seaport, Kendall! Seems you've been stuck inland for the most part. Spend some time up at Whitby or some other lovely place where you can smell the salt air. You'll feel much more energized if you do, I'm sure. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: katlaughing Date: 29 Apr 04 - 02:05 AM Good to hear of your travels, Kendall and of the longing pupy, Sins!:-) I look forward to the pix and whatever else you have the time and inclination to post. How're the *birds?* Any tallish ones with pink hair?**bg** kat |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: jacqui.c Date: 29 Apr 04 - 07:20 AM I wont be able to post pix until I get home, dont have the disc or the cord to upload them here. |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: Peg Date: 29 Apr 04 - 06:39 PM If you go to the Rollrights (near Banbury, Oxfordshire), they've apparently been splashed with bright yellow paint. Still a nice spot though.... enjoy! I am jealous and wish I could be at Hastings...next year! peg |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: jacqui.c Date: 30 Apr 04 - 11:04 AM Kendall here. Peg, did you get your ticket to Old Songs yet? |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: jacqui c Date: 01 May 04 - 05:12 AM Kendall here, we are off to Hastings today for the Jack in the Green festival, and a roaring good time at the Stag pub. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: jacqui.c Date: 01 May 04 - 05:45 AM Jacqui here Kendall's going back to the States on Wednesday. If we get back reasonably early from Hastings and aren't too tired we'll be heading for the Waltham Abbey singaround on Monday night - so anyone that wants to say hello and goodbye........ |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: Keith A of Hertford Date: 01 May 04 - 10:50 AM Kendal, in my PM , one of the places I suggested was St.Albans about 15 miles from Hertford. I hear that Mel Gibson's next film is to be about Boudicia, the warior queen who led a revolt against the Romans. She destroyed the town of Verulameum whose excavated streets can be walked in present day St.Albans. Keith. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: jacqui.c Date: 03 May 04 - 07:52 AM We did St. Albans last friday. It was cold and wet, but I'm glad I saw it. This weekend, we went to Hastings for the Jack in the green festival, with a stop in Battle. My ancestors landed there in 1066 with Wm. the Conqueror. Looking around the town of Hastings, I got to wondering why they landed in such a crowded place...all those cars and crazy bastards on the wrong side of the road just looking for someone to run over. And the parking fees! outrageous! No wonder they killed each other! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: Noreen Date: 03 May 04 - 02:53 PM Glad you got such a lot out of being shown the sights, Kendall! |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: open mike Date: 03 May 04 - 03:26 PM so they let you in even though you play a banjo? how do you know they will let you back out?! |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: SINSULL Date: 08 May 04 - 11:56 AM Oh no! I thought the emu had kept her mouth shut! Now we will have to deal with a sulking llama. |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: Herga Kitty Date: 08 May 04 - 02:52 PM I'm glad to hear that Kendall has arrived home safely. And also that I got to hear you play banjo and to say hello! Kitty |

Subject: RE: BS: Kendall's great adventure From: kendall Date: 08 May 04 - 05:33 PM I'm still coming down off the high that you all created while I was in England, and I can't tell you how much I appreciate all your hospitality |
