Hope they can fix him he's very smart, a nice red motarola. Talkin of Red, he excelled himself again last weekend, team 3rd and individual 2nd, and we've already qualified for the championships and its only June. He's a star. My trainer has forgiven me for beating her the week before, but there's going to be a return match on Thursday 21st. Very busy at work got another PA off sick with some trauma stress panic thingumy, so I'm doing extreme multi-tasking. No pub for me this week !!!! |

Dashed to the phone shop for emergency treatment, but they said it would have to go away, so took it home so that 16 year old son could save everything for me, and hey presto it started working. So............ if you have problems with your mobil: just ring Vodafone, have no luck with man on phone, dash through the traffic from work in the rush hour, find you have no money to park, run as fast as your high heels can manage from one end of the high street to the other reach shop 2 mins before closing have spotty faced youth twiddle with your phone, switch it off, take it home hand it to 16 year old genius and it will magically return to normal ! |

I quite agree with the man from the ministry if the buggers wont fall out of trees, give the little blighters a shove. Character building, dontchaknow. My Tim is doing Relegious Studies GCSE as we speek. Last Friday was German, it was multiple choice he answered C for everything. In his German oral the only words he could remember were vegetarian, cheese and interesting and managed to work the whole exam around these three words. That lad will go far !! |

Mussyden? I nodded at the time. Perhaps young Tim could provide me with the German words. Richard gave his exam 7/10. I was in touch with his feelings, even when he said that the text book didn't cover glaciation in great depth so he had to blague it. How deep is a glacier anyway? Quiz question. What is the name of the Polar bear on top of a Fox's Glacier Mint? |

13 Jun 07 - 03:16 AM (#2075487) Subject: RE: 23rd June Charity Day Bull Barton Beds From: The PA Good Morning All from Sunny Worcestershire Cathie, Only if those words are : vegetarian, cheese or interesting - Ross compose a verse please. Tim's exam was 'cool'. This morning we have double higher chemistry. He's decided he wants to follow his cousin into Forensic's. Personally I wouldn't follow Rachel (cousin) anywhere cos it usually ends up quite gruesome. 2 - 1/3rds as much as the bit stickin through the water. So measure the bit stickin through the water and add another couple of bits and there you have it, glacier depth. Simple. Foxie, Mintie, Snowie ??? Meeting this morning so off to scribble shorthand and draw cartoons through the boring bits. I also pass jokes to my boss in an effort to make him laugh usually works. |

No, but you can write really rude things about people without them knowing. Meeting suspended, boss off to Mexico - if I get him to the airport on time. M42 here we come! |

It's an open mic at the Bull tonight And things on at Bedford Folk Club, Daley's, Kempston & the Orange Tree Baldock And Pirton tonight as above Details of Scrump's funeral tomorrow - 14th from Alan/Sue Hewson: I can now confirm the arrangements for Paul's funeral. It will be at Stevenage Crematorium, at 1.15pm on Thursday 14th June. The address is Watton Road, Stevenage, SG2 8XT Directions: The Crematorium is situated on the Watton Road between Stevenage and Knebworth. The main access is via the Stevenage to Hertford road (A602), linking directly with the A1(M) at Junction 7, less than three miles away. After the service we will retire to The Orange Norton Rd, Baldock, SG7 5AW to celebrate Paul's memory in the way he loved best, with a pint or real beer or cider and a song. Frankie has asked for family flowers only. In lieu there are two options to donate to Paul's memory. Frankie is going to site a memorial seat in one of Paul's favourite places. Donations can be made via the funeral directors. Details will be in the order of service. Secondly, we are going to hold a music festival in him name in March 2008; an account will be set up to which donations can be made. In the interim, donations for the festival can be via Mad Nanny Music. In addition, a ceilidh on July 21st in Ickleford Village Hall (just 50 yards from Paul's home) will donate all profits to the fund. Please contact me re tickets/donations or both. Regards Alan & Sue Hewson |

Not bad considering just as we began our dressage test a ruddy ginger and white cat decided to chase moths around the arena. Poor old Red freeked and shot sideways across the arena, and my son burst our laughing very very loudly. Two fences down in the jumping, but not a bad night. Why didnt M.Meg warn me about the cat! Boss back like a whorle wind from Athens. Looks like you've got a fun weekend lined up, we have a charity ball, all suits, posh frocks, and dancing the nigh away to a really good 60's band, which we've seen before. Its to raise funds for research into Amyloidosis, which my friend died from last year. Work becons, have a great weekend and I hope you all raise loads of money (what's it for Ross). Bye for now. |

Well done Ross & all the Bartonites for a brilliant result for Charity! Ross - did you not explain to your raffle puntees that my CD is really 'non-commercial' as I only ever give it (the cd) away? So disappointed non-winners are welcome to PM me for a copy - if I run out I might just burn a 'hooky' one!! I was surprised to find that Trevor had decided to spend the weekend with me (at Forest Folk Song & Ale I hasten to add) and was delighted to hear him again. Barton's loss was North Boarhunt's gain and we raised a glass to Barton, well I raised several as you can imagine *grin* |
