slough? poor you

I have phoned for a takeaway to be delivered when staying in a hotel. It was a travel lodge type place though and there was no access to food.

Hey YG - not in Slough, but can send you a virtual bottle of shiraz and a nice steak and chips from SW London.
Hope you and the girls are having a lovely time.
How are you doing?

oh order the room service woman

take it out of the child benefit

take it out of mine if it comes to that; I can't watch a woman starve

I second cappucino - order something from room service, and have a nice glass of wine to go with it....it's your holiday too.
Chin chin!

we went to legoland last week; it was fab and staying in a hotel was ok except when DS2 kept asking for breakfast at 6:10 am when the restaurant opened at 8 am!

Wish I had seen this earlier . I live near the airport . I could have dropped you something over . There was once a poem I dont know the name of it but one of the lines was
Come all ye bombs and fall on Slough .
Never a truer word said . LOL

Yes it's bloody awful YG, but some 'nice' places not too far away (although I found Berkshire up-yer-arse snobby and pretentious on the whole, Windsor, Eton etc)

Hope you have a fab day tomorrow Yorkie - Legoland is brill.

I lived in High Wycombe for 6 months about 15 years ago. 6 months was enough
