Ok, I've got to tell cos i'm bustin' a gut here.

Big Andrew has just won a fab prize. A weekend break for 2 in Barcelona, all expenses paid. We are staying at Gran Hotel La Florida and will be eating at the worlds best restaurant of El Bulli. We will be taken to the restaurant and returned to the hotel by chauffer driven limousine. Afterwards, me and Big Andrew will go and get some proper food :twisted:

I suppose it means that I'll have to buy a posh frock. I haven't worn a frock for over 10 years.......Have to be on best manners to. No more flicking peas or belching loudly :twisted:

We're going next June as it's close to both of our big birthdays
Lots of love

We tried to get a table at El Bulli a couple of years ago and couldn't hack the waiting list. What a lovely prize. Detailed account is required!!!!

Envy. :evil: :twisted: :evil: :twisted: :evil:

How lovely! Though I think you should still flick peas and belch (and possibly even a tiny fart and pretend it was the waiter?) :twisted:

Big Andrew is taking me if he knows what's good for him :shock:

He's said it could even be like a honeymoon. Can't see how cos we'd have to marry first, and after 16 years I don't think I could be bothered........

I will give a full and detailed account when we return. Also decided to g o back to Dublin for my birthday next year cos it's a biggie...got no intention of staying here.

All it needs is for the best band in the world to play a gig and i'll be one very happy bunny.

Do you think it would be ok to moon out of the limo window? :twisted:
Lots of love

Dear Lizzie, on the more serious side i am generally really pleased for you both, and i can't think of anyone on the forum that more deserves it.

On the less serious side, it should be fine to moon out of the Limo window, as they have very large windows to accommodate the said item. :shock: :twisted: :lol: :wink:
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

Ooooh Herby you cheeky bu**er :twisted:

Should be fun though. I feel that sometimes, in life, the time comes to do something totally futile and stupid. My advice to anyone is, if it feels right, go for it.

Just remember to check with a lawyer first :twisted:
Lots of love

Dear Lizzie, i find that statement very debatable, but i do feel quite honoured to be thought of in the same class as Grock. :) :wink:
