OK - who wants to bring what? Jenny's booked in for a quiche and a salad. Judging by last time's feast, there's no need for everyone to exercise their culinary skills if they don't want to.

WE'LL BRING......

Amaretti-Stuffed Peaches for Dessert with a liqueur-flavoured cream.
Cheap and chearful, and a little taste of summer, even if it 'persists down', which OF COURSE it's not going to. All I'll need, as I'm sure we all will, is a 'final numbers reckie' the night before to make sure there's enough for those going that want some.

Ooh, it's going to be SUCH fun !
We're really looking forward to it.

jenny i know a song about a spring chicken, would you like to hear it? 'i'm a spring chicken i'm yellow n small, my feathers are fluffy and they keep me warm, my legs are not long, so i'll never be tall, i'm a real spring chicken and i'm having a ball, i'm a chicken, i'm a chicken and i'm having a ball' there's a dance too :?
Are children allowed at the show? i could disgiuse her as a fruit/veg?
If OH goes i'd like to see him/her as well as the rest of you :wink:

Children, OH's, Peter, Piglet's, The Mentally unstable, all invited and welcome. Only dogs aren't allowed 'cos the RSPCA patrol the car parks and act upon anyone who has a mut in their car.

Will You & Co be there then?

Hey Piglet

I'd bring minders with you if I were you. I'm warning you all in advance

THE GROCK IS COMING, THE GROCK IS COMING, LOCK UP ALAN TITCHMARSH

She's looking forward to meeting you Piglet. Shall I bring my pain medication or do you think you'll be able to cope? :twisted:

Take no notice of the others Jopsy. There will be so much to eat that any pants attempt will not be needed. Just turn up with DH and Lily. We'll feed you all.

As for AT Grock - I think you might find he'll be gone by Sunday. Other committments. However, there's Piglet and his thighs and his calves and his..........wife.

I've got a feeling that Piglette will sit back and laugh at poor Piglet trying to wrestle himself out of the talonned grip of Grock

Yep, should be a laugh.

Do you think I should put the paramedics on standby Tigger?

Definitely.

Right.

What time are we all getting there? Plus, does anyone know of a B&B in the area for me and Grock?

We'll travel down on the Saturday and stop over. We did this last time and had a lovely time. Stayed in Hereford, went out for a curry, came back, had a cuppa and shower and were all ready for GW.

There are a few stories but i'll leave telling them till Malvern.

Could reply but as I'm really a county adrift I'll leave the first responses from JB., Allan and others. If nothing emerges, I'll jump in.
