Me turnips have bolted.....
On my way home from the 'Fax tonight, was surprised to see a mass of cars parked by Widdop. Seeing a few lanky, skimpily dressed men explained it all: Widdop race.
Got out at the Travellers Rest, and had a mosey about to see if I could pick out any familiar faces. Bumped into the Pudgemeister General!
Cracking evening for it: clear skies, gentle breeze. Hope everyone enjoyed it. Let us know how you got on Pudge. Never know, this time next year, I might be up for joining you!;)
I saw the PG tonight, but missed you mate;)Quote:

I like the idea of wine flu :)
Or do I? :confused:
Maybe wine flu is what you suffer from AFTER a night on the wine :rolleyes:
Anyone got swine flu or know anyone who has it
? :eek:
I know lots of people who "might" have it and are off work for 7 days just in case :rolleyes:
NHS Direct "Have you sneezed more than once in the last 24 hours?"
Ill person "yes"
NHS Direct "the you probably have swine flu - stay at home til you are fully recovered and get a well friend to come and fetch you swine flu tablets!" :eek:
Two department bosses at my sainsburys have it.Quote:
