Well unfortunately the Jones clan will not be at WIKKI this year due to the clutch deciding to give up the ghost on Kelly's car tonight....YES i know there is a couple of weeks to go BUT when it going to cost around £1500 in parts and labour then obviously due to the cost we can simply not afford to come down.

PHIL ring me ASAP please

have spoken to the dear boy, he was last trying to work out how to get 4 people, 120 boats and a caravan into a Nissan micra.........
As I am always helpful I suggested putting the children in the glove box

His last words must have been in Welsh

Ian, we all try to avoid Klunk but somehow it just can't be done, so sneak across the boarder and pretend never to have heard of mini cheddars

Almost a week to go, looking forward to it.

Indeed yes, the house is starting to look like a cross between a camping shop and a dockyard

Still hunting down all the missing bits, you know things like batteries, transmitters, blowlamp, and somewhere amongst all of this is Steamboat Apprentice, still I an sure I will find her before next Friday

davidsg1a · « **Reply #194 on:** May 18, 2018, 04:28:37 pm »

You do realise if you don’t find the apprentice you won’t have to eat greens at the bbq.
