  1. Sorry, I don't know anything about pigeons, other that the flying rats that bother you if you're eating in the park. And I didn't even know what a Whippet was until I saw Mick's attachment picture. Is pigeon racing done in Nottingham? How do pigeons race? I can't figure out how anyone could keep them from flying off. And what is it he would like to know about whippet breading? Well let's see...first you get a girl whippet and you dress her up in some heels and a short skirt... So he doesn't like our mindless chatter?
  2. Ask your Dad what exactly it is that he considers "decent stuff" and we'll do our best. Otherwise, he could start a new topic containing "decent stuff" and we'll all join in!
  3. Well you may plan on staying up, but I have to leave to go get my son. Hold that thought!!
  4. Oh dear, this could be a long night!!! (or day for me, it's still daytime here!)
  5. Yes, we've scared away all the others! Now... where were we?
  6. Oh BIP, we've lost our private moment... no1
  7. If I remember right, Googlebot isn't a Who, it's a What. Mick can explain best, he's our mighty leader that knows all!!!
  8. I do know EBAy!!!! We've bought loads of stuff on Ebay including a hot rod, curtains, dvd's, Dyson vacuum cleaner...
  9. I was going to respond to that, but I didn't want to sound stupid not knowing what the heck he was talking about! OK, I'll admit it, I'm a computer IDIOT. I'm lucky I can even figure out how to post anything!!
  10. So you pay attention to who's on too, huh? How come every time I direct a post at someone I see is on, they are gone by the time I finish posting?? I'm just a slow typist I guess
  11. I wouldn't worry to much about that, from what i can't see i can imagine.[/i][/b] !situp! I was referring to my WHOLE back side, not just my bum! I think backs are sexy.
  12. Oh to be 17 again!!! I did have such a nice back side, where the h#*l did it go!!! The only thing I don't like about that photo is my hair. That's what happens when I get out of a pool and let it dry on it's own. Part wavy, part straight, I'm much pickier about it now. I didn't care back then. My ex-husband actually had that photo copied onto a T-shirt and wore it around, a couple guys asked him where he bought it not knowing the picture was his wife!! That was flattering for me!
  13. Well, thanks to our Mighty Leader (Mick) my new photo is posted. And here's one for you, just look for someone wearing this outfit!!
  14. How will you recognize me? What about that picture you claim to have saved in a secret place on your hard drive? I tried posting a new one (Hey Mick, did you get my e-mail regarding resizing?) but it was too big. I am in fact wearing less clothing in that picture... don't get too excited, it's a sundress! And I must say I'm sporting a pretty good tan too!
  15. Now BIP, how would you know where to find the cheapest "Prosies"?!
  16. Mick suggested a place called Fellows, Morton & Clayton near the trip. Is this place you're talking about anywhere near there? It would be nice if we could stay somewhere walking distance from the castle so we have somewhere close by to let the kids get some energy out!! Maybe you can go along and push my husband off the castle wall so we can run away together!!!
  17. Sorry, don't know the area, is St. Anns a church? I saw a show on the Discovery Channel about drugs in England. They were interviewing a minister and following him with the camera, as he walked around the church he bent over and picked up a needle, and stated drug addicts frequently use the drugs right there on the church grounds.
  18. You know what cali that sounds a good idea, i'll kick the dog from his basket, he can sleep in the garage, did you say your fella was coming over too if not the dogs basket could sleep two little ones, it's big enough, the box room bed could be for your eldest and that just leaves my bed and you ? steady BiP you hardly know her.................... My goodness BIP! You don't know me at all, remember you didn't show up for the last meet up, as innocent as it was! I'm trying to get some input about having a daytime meeting (remember we'll have kids there) but only Mick has responded. If
  19. Hello Robin, enjoy the forums! (As much as I like his avatar, he might have a hard time finding a "nice" girl, but then again, good girls and nice girls are two different things!)
  20. You know BIP, I could cancel our reservations, and we could all sleep in your bed with you!!
  21. The search is over! I now have all of our accommodations worked out. I found a place in Wilmslow (10 minute drive to the airport) that has room for all of us, though it was a bit more expensive. Can't wait to get there!
  22. Thanks everyone for your suggestions. I've spent HOURS online on PicturesofEngland.com looking for accommodations(which didn't have many good pictures of Nottingham I might add , you can submit your own) and VisitBritain.com and the search is almost over! I found a place near Ashbourne called Cornpark Cottage £70 per night with room for all(I have to be near Derby cause that's where Grandpa is). We'll be staying there the first four nights, then we're off to Lincoln to a place called Tennyson Court (converted racehorse stable?) which was the same price with enough beds for 6 (anyone want t
  23. Thanks for the car info Mick, I checked the price for a midsize and it came out to $200 less than the Hertz website for the week! That's helpful!! I knew there was a reason I loved you guys!!!
  24. You DO remember me!!! Thanks for all of that guys (and gal!!) We bought our plane tickets, there's no turning back now!! We fly into Manchester arriving July 25 and we fly home Aug. 1. Don't know where we're staying yet, having a hard time finding room for 5 anywhere! We're trying to plan a few nights in the Matlock, Derby area for the first few nights and we can make day trips all around, then the next few nights in the Lincoln area doing the same, and our last night near Manchester. For those who love me and live in the Nottm. area (Mick, Crissie, BIP), I'm asking you to help me locate a
