I will be visiting in the UK from Aug. 21st through Sept 7th. I will be at both Whitby and Towersey and will be loosely based in London after that with time negotiable. Anyone who wants to get together or has suggestions of activities while I'm there will be welcomed to be heard from.

Thanks!

I'll see you at Towersey and if you need a bed in London, you're welcome here at Chez Draper.

I think I missed you last time?

I'll have a couple of days free after Towersey if you want to wander around London with Limpit and I, or maybe a car trip out to some of the more pleasant green bits.

Pop into the Endeavour for Jim Mageean and Graham Knight's shanty sessions (every pm). There's always a few catter's in therel. Look out for a little bald fellow with a lissome blonde playing spoons with a Welsh accent. That'll be me and herself.

Hey, Sev - you may want to think about changing your name for the duration... the Severn is not the country's most popular river this summer!!

How about calling yourself Sahara for a while?

I try not to be a sponge, even in my most self-absorbed moments, out on the porifera of things.

Last year I was accused of bringing rain to England, I'll see What I can get accused of this time over. And if any of the people I might stay with or meet up with have anything they actually want me to bring over from the US, let me know in advance.

Sev, me darlin', you should come to Wareham.....you would like it, and I and others ( Pixie, Phot, Herga Kitty, Cats and a cast of many) would be there. This should make you want to come along.

PM me if you want to chance it, it's in Dorset, 31st to 2nd and there is a thread. It is here:

I'm considering going to Wareham myself... actually managed to get leave and payday comes between Towersey and Wareham!

Sev - fruit flavoured Lifesavers please!! And some salt water taffy if you can.... Love those Lifesavers. No need to bother with ribbon candy, I still have a load left from Christmas. Not even I can eat that much sugar!

Sev, I am GREEN with envy. Now, buddy, what you need is a couple dogs to mind, (and NO, Miss Molly isn't enough) a couple kids to move back home to support, and a wife who SHOPS.

Then you wouldn't have to spend all this money gallivanting about.

Sorcha,

Been there, done all of that, and the lawyer got the T-shirt. I seem to remember seeing pictures of a fairly legendary UK trip you made a few years ago, and I remember having envied that!

Who's to say I won't meet that beautiful shopaholic with the childern and dogs over there?

Never mind me old wordsmith, I'm sure that your visit to Whitby et all will calm you down, if not restore your banks, but you will have a levée.
