Good morning all,dashing away with the smoothing iron today then Heritage.I owe you an apology Heritage, when you first joined I assumed you were male, you must think me a right idiot talking about rugby to you.

Hi Beejay,sounds like you are in for a good old time,reliving those good old days. safe journey and enjoy your break.

Hello Dalerite. You were quite right about me 'dashing away with the smoothing iron'. There always appears to be a mound of ironing to do.

I smiled when you mistook me for a man and meant to put you right but it slipped my mind.

As for taking rugby, I know nothing. However, just to impress I logged into 'Sporting Life.Com. and here is my offering.

Former England captain Phil Vickery will retire from rugby today after conceding defeat in his battle against a neck injury.

He began his career in Bude. (I hope I got this right and it's not out of date).

A friend has just knocked the door and I have to cut this post short.  I'll finish it tonight Dalerite.

Good morning all, and to you, Heritage.

The Club I mentioned is run by a committee of residents from the local Community Centre. It was set up for the more elderly residents of the area, for its nearly all sheltered accommodation here.

Our Club organises coach outings, jumble sales, f?tes, race nights, bingo sessions and basically any ideas members can come up with. We also provide a shopping service to anyone who can?t get out, for one reason or another.

If you want to see us having a good time, google ?Avon Heath Caf? | Facebook? and click on photos. You will see us all having a jolly good roast diner as part of our trip to the New Forest.

We?ve personally had some lovely adventures in North Wales. We used to go a lot on ?9.50 ?Sun? holidays, first to Pwllheli, to the old Butlin?s site just after ?Haven? took it over.

We got tired of it there and started going to ?Greenacres? in Porthmadog. The sands are fabulous there and the people of Porthmadog are much friendlier than Pwllheli, probably due to the Butlins? blight.

We stayed a couple of times in Criccieth at the George IV Hotel for week-ends. One stay was the night that Princess Diana died. The shock of first knowing of it was in our hotel room.

We?ve been all round Anglesey, to Caernarfon, Harlech, Barmouth and Dolgellau. We love Beddgelert and Betws-y-Coed. But, now we live on the south coast we don?t get the chances to visit them anymore.

That's a smashing picture and I straight away turned it into an electronic jigsaw puzzle which I'm working on now.
