Hi Weenie, The trip was beautiful Weenie, every Bay is beautiful. The driver was an excellent guide. He took us past Alan Wickers grave and also the grave of Billy Butlins, Billy's grave stone was enormous and shaped like a poster bed all in black marble. Seemingly him and his wife done an awful lot for the Island as did Alan Wicker, there houses were worth millions, The houses in millionaires row are out of this world, The flower arrangements all over the Island are so beautiful, each Bay we came across was outstanding, The weather yesterday and today is really hot too, We managed to find some country music in a hotel last night and we are going to another hotel tonight for more country music. So that is what makes our holiday too. Forgot to say Kenneth More lived here too if you remember him, Nash ;)

I posted this on Facebook yesterday

Fifty years ago today England beat Mexico 2-0 at Wembley, in their 2nd group stage match on route to winning the World cup.


OH yeah and my Mum & Dad got married, and went to Guernsey for their honeymoon.


In the years that followed myself and my sister were born


So last night we all went to with my sisters family to our local Beefeater and had a big meal.

Trust you nash to find somewhere with country music, I'm glad that you enjoyed your break just what the doctor ordered as they say :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

So true Weenie. If there was no country music to be found, I would not be back to any place twice,

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

LOL I believe you nash, you really do love your Country Music. I was so pleased that you enjoyed your break as at the start I was worried you were not enjoying it.

Osem Jnr successfully completed his 'Pass Plus' driving course. Hopefully he'll get a reduction in his car insurance.

After a trip to hospital in a nice ambulance and a couple of hours in A&E this morning, Osem Jnr #2 has recovered from a rather nasty looking allergic reaction. Happily he's now back to his usual inscrutable, moody, self and having some lunch... :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Well done to Osem Jnr & sending a big hug to Osem Jnr #2

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Just a quick tip on the insurance Osem, adding you as a named driver to his policy will get a discount ( provided you have been a good boy of course ;) )

I got my son's insurance down below £500 by adding me and his mum to the policy. He is 17 1/2. :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

@ Weenie - thanks! :tu:

@ Julian - I am already a named driver on his policy and have been a very good boy over the years. ;) Good tip for anyone else with a young driver in the family though. :tu:

Saved hubby a couple of hundred pounds :) he will be pleased last week I phoned Vauxhall and they said I was looking at anything between £350.00 - £425.00 to replace the full front driver side door window mechanism. Today I bought a second hand one from ebay for best offer of £25.00 instead of the asking price of £29.95. I think one deserves a bottle of Prosecco and some nice flowers for that saving. The price included free P&P http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1418364956...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT I never thought that they would accept my offer tbh
