Hi Gerry,
What I meant to say was that the catalogue you quoted was within 2 seeds of mine. You get 2 more than me!

Oi you lot................i'll slap your legs for you all
Me, Grockie and Elaine hire ourselves out as a threesome. All we require is 20 cigs each, plenty of tea, cake and bikkes and comfy chairs to sit on. Then we are quite happy to sit and kill any bugs.
We are open to other offers of payment in kind but it's at the discretion of the three of us
Geoff........hope you don't mind but I sent a link to this thread to a very good friend of mine. She works for RBS in Edinburgh and i'm sure she'll appreciate your "guy"

Well get them to sign up and keep us informed of your goings on - never been convinced of Old Codger's neutrality.

Now there's a thought Geoff, i know she's a member of Hugh F's website.
I have already had a bit of a joke with them, since i've been handling them getting an allotment, i waited right to the last moment and then told them that the bloke had changed his mind about giving it up, i was only joking of course.

Their poor faces, but i can see retribution coming my way.
