I'm coming 26th - 30th June :) I hope it'll be nice weather then. I went the same time last year for my birthday and it was roasting. Went up on the Bournemouth eye and afterwards we were sat watching Wimbledon on the big screen in the garden/park and the sun caught me - went home a bit lobsterfied. I'd move to Bournemouth if I could afford to.

Remember this? Remember it well? It was only last week...

Paypal in an email wrote:We've concluded our investigation into the transaction detailed below.

We've processed the payment, and the funds are now in your PayPal account.

We appreciate your cooperation.

I believe the appropriate phrase would be GET THE * IN! I'm actually really astonished. Amazed even. But I've transferred the money to my bank account and it should be available in a couple of days.

Yay Topher! I met JLC today and he gave me a hug!

EDIT:

When me and Mrs Duck got together we heard about JLCs amazing hugs on the Chris Moyles Show. We made a pact to get a JLC hug.....and today that dream came true.

I explained the story to him and before I had finished he said "come here big fella" and with that I got the best man hug ever(he grabbed my bum.....so I grabbed his)!

Its also Mrs Ducks birthday so he gave her a hug and a birthday kiss

This man really is a LEGEND!

and he liked my Tshirt

I quite fancy the seafood one - although the Californian looks good too. I don't like the look of the bases though, too thick. Not that they ever look the same as the pictures when they actually arrive....

In the end it was a fight to the finish between the Meatball Feast and the Alligator; the Meaty One being edged out earlier on. But it's the Meatball Feast that wins my vote.
