I'm just a nice person and the sooner everyone realises this, the easier life will become!

Seriously, you lot up North all seem to know each other and there's only Carla and me down South (although I'm a Lincolnian by birth) so I had to so something!

I just hope the cake survives - it was blazing hot in Winchester but the Wykeham Arms still had a blazing fire in the bar! Honestly, even for Brits who don't believe in good weather (even in the summer) this was taking things too far!!!

Susan, what a fantabulous idea! Thank you for thinking of it! If there's anything I can do over here for you, let me know! I'm sure Jon and Claire (especially Claire!) will be surprised.

Who cares - it was a great idea! Serious amount of respect!

Random acts of kindness really make me smile, no matter who or why...

I'm in the South, too... In fact my current lodgings are barely a couple of hundred yards north of the Channel.

Simon - another one south of Watford - hurrah! We'll have to set up our own enclave..................


Are we talking English, Bristol or Solent channel?

English Channel: I'm in Worthing, in West Sussex.

And then there are at least two in the Swindon area, as well, and I seem to recall Lycanthra Pod saying that she was somewhere over that way (Chippenham?) too: That brings us up to at least six southerners...

I'm near Petersfield in East Hants so we could have a publication party?

Sounds like it could be fun. I get to Petersfield by changing trains (from the Brighton-Portsmouth line) at Havant, don't I?

yes - very easy to do - let's see what's happening nearer the time - but something could well be in the offing - if any one else would like to be considered, let me know

I will probably be around the Cheltenham area on the 7th. If it's feasable to do it by car I'll have a few seats avaliable so if psd or anyone fancies a lift I don't mind doing that.
