I am planning the video transmission already. Diagonal fade in, sweep up and out - all in harmony with the dancing steps and waving. Why don't folk clubs sell ice creams? I am looking forward to Harvey on Sunday. Can I film and eat ice creams? see you Cathy, Coach Karaoke Queen. |

I did offer to swap so she could be with her pupils but she politely declined my offer.

10 Jul 06 - 04:23 PM (#1780547) Subject: RE: Bull, Barton, Beds - July06 things From: Cathie Hi John Always an eye for a profit! I will investigate the no-crunch-while-people-are-singing-variety. As for the coach - 2 pairs of sterilised gloves down - does that answer your question? It's amazing how quickly we can be sitting dozing one minute, then at that magic call, be halfway down the coach, gloved, bag and wet wipes at the ready within seconds. A smiling, reassuring, nurturing expression on the face and a 'You won't want any more of those sweets will you?' on the lips. swipe! Did you provide any in-flight entertainment? (Somebody's going to write that will make them throw up - but not me) see you Cathy |
