I'm off on holiday, back to my usual place at this time of year,
Coral Bay in Cyprus.
Leave home at about 2am to drive to Brum airport.
Catch you all in a couple of weeks.
Keep strong Sam, if you can get to the bar there's a bottle of JD with your name it, enjoy!

Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Just cant understand why you dont want to stay in Blighty and enjoy one entire months worth of rain in the next few days ?
So what if the temp may drop to plus 1 in May ?

I've heard about drowning in a butt of Malmsey but boating in Burgundy is taking it a bit far.........
