Just heard that there is a football tournament starting at the week-end (bet you didn,t know that). For the duration I am running two coaches to the O Hebrides, one for the girls and one for the boys. (sorry, different islands). Please put your name down if you are coming to this 'Outer Hebrides meet' Wonder which coach will fill up first. And before you ask no radios and the like - just sun; sea; and er er sand). Happy days

Sorry Harry, I would normally jump at the chance to be with you on a 'deserted' island but I'm off on my hols on Saturday. :-)))

The nearest I got to the Outer Hebrides was the Kyles of Lochalsh and Tinnabruach - I would love to make the trip over there. I've been to the other end - Isles of Scilly and Tresco - and I will go to the others when OH becomes a pensioner....

I was waiting until someone replied to you Harry about Hanky Panky, as no one has, I have looked it up and it says. Type of re-iteration used at fairgrounds, to do with conjouring tricks - the conjourer using a hanky......therefore hanky-panky - meaning something hidden or underhand.
