Chateau Gizzy - The Commune finally opens at the University of Milton North

[DumSpiroSpero]

Well, it's about time.

Now all we need are furnishings and decorations...

from me - sorry! Reading is closer but I fear for my car's safety.

Leave the Aston at home and come in the fiat then!!

Nah seriously Lakeside is fab - just wish it was closer!

Like I'd have a Fiat!

Nothing wrong with a fiat I'm sure?!

Vampgirl's school is not striking next week - well at least her class isn't! After all that! Typical huh!

No, not unless you have an Aston Martin or two in the garage.

For anyone who's Christmas shopping, I just mention that The Book People have the BBC audio book of the Hobbit at a knock-down price.

Small - Are you really fearful for your car in Reading? In Reading?

::By Small's standards I must live in Tripoli emoticon::

I must emphasise that not-so-elderly Antipodeans do not, ahem, bake my cake but he is probably my favourite to win because he seems so sweet and determined.

::::

Says it's out of stock til after Christmas Maud!! Have to wait til RA records the hobbit! He will won't he?! If we ask him nicely?

Small I saw your . Thought long and hard about which car would least likely go with an Aston and unlikely to be in your garage as well!!

Jase does seem keen to win - but I prefer Harry's sweetness and tendency to forget to do up his shirt buttons

Reading is 2 hours 10 from me, apparently. Lakeside has big cinemas but it's not very easy to find your way around... it's only about an hour from me though so I could easily do that. Harlow/Bishops Stortford looks halfway between us... though I've never been round there any have no idea what it's like.

Guildford's nice!

Ooh, loverly, Maud thanks. But oh, the poor lamb.

Why the wink? What am I missing about Guildford?! DrT was born there...

Aww, TwigBoy has his first ever playdate and he is so excited. A little boy came over to play after school and TwigBoy asked this boy "would you like a tour of the house?" :o

Is Twig Towers really that grand, then, Twigs?

Arf at "would you like a tour of the house?" Did he include both wings and the servants' quarters?

Oui, Guildford est très bijou.

Twigs - I simply meant perhaps you could meet in Guildford as that is closer to me than Lakeside since Smallio won't park her Aston Martin in Reading!!

I love it round there. My mum went to school in Guildford and the colonel went to university there!

I can't see poor Gizzy!! I think I should
Complain to the apple/device makers that their phones and HD YouTube doesn't work!

!

::blubs::

Right, Vampy, that's me decided not to bother with an i-Phone.

Oh Maud, that's remnded me of my schooldays, and what fun it was to be in the choir despite my crow's voice

I loved being in the choir, too. I think I mentioned a few weeks back that I was very tempted to join our local pop choir, having seen them .

I was joking about Reading, Guildford is worse than Lakeside distance wise!

The Christmas pressie I was planning to get SB Minor is out of stock everywhere except Amazon where it is twice the price of every other retailer. Bugger!

That's a pain Small. Amazon are usually so good about price.

I guess that's why they haven't sold out.

Is it his main pressie on the list you sent? If so I'd hoped that you'd already got it as they were out of stock ages ago! Have you tried debenhams? I had luck with an octopod when they were out of stock everywhere! According to my map thingy it's only an hour from you to Guildford - but as far for twigs as it is for me to get to lakeside! Ah well - enjoy ladies!!
