What a lovely day out LWD and me had Sunday, went on a grave yard hunting trip to Rutland, started the day at the village of Lyndon, its so beautiful and quite, lovely old church, found 3 grave stone of LWDs relies which pleased her very much, as I said we need to get a life, spending our Sundays trekking round grave yards. moved on to Manton village, again it’s a picture post card village, then up to Rutland waters, anyone that lives in this area I envy you, onto Oakham, well must have the best PC in the country, LWD said they should put a visitors book in them so you can sign to say you’ve been, the onto Whissendine my family home, one of my brick wall is here, again a beautiful village, large church, and family grave stones still eligible, plus in 1982 they did a survey of the grave stone and made a index which was left out for all to read, so on so on

*tuts* can't trust you to do anything right ..... Mivvy's are good but soleros are the m'coy ...
*note to Amanda* I had forgotten about Mivvys do they still do them ?

Anyway Monty I am disappointed in you Lidle's sarnies *huffs* on a day out ..mind I guess it's better than making LWD make her own .......


....what a charmer !! should have done subs or M&S .. (that's M and S not the other way round)

Still it must be good to have a OH trawl the graveyards with I'm afraid mine would stick me on a bus with a map ! (or in my case a plane with a map lol)

To be honest Uzzi I haven't seen a Mivvy in years : ( I have to make do with the inferiour strawberry split instead .

Amanda go for the Soleros..Solaros (that long since I've had one) they are soooo much more classy than a split bit like a mivvy really but had better flavours.... well they are a mivvy but grown up into flavours. (peach and pineapple etc)
