Tec - I'm not obsessed with cleaning, and would have been happy if I had been out and came home to be told what had happened.
However, I was sitting at the computer and could see into the bathroom and I saw what was flowing all over the floor; out into the hallway and I later found what had spurted up the floor-waste and the plug-hole in the laundry! Even though the plumbers cleaned it all up very efficiently, I still have that memory of what I saw, so when I smell anything - it all comes back to me!
Then, YES, I become obsessed with cleaning when I think of that!

Oh sorry Allan, I forgot that you were an Aussie now, so to you Blackpool will a suave sophisticated place!!!!

Thinks, thank goodness he is thousands of miles away

So.......That's what happened to Allans hair............
he let it down in Blackpool,
it fell around his legs obviously..........sorry Allan, wicked I know!

Tec

Barbra,

I was 17/18, went for a few beers (before breath testing!) and then to the dance hoping to make the closer acquaintanceship of some of the girls there....same result, too much beer and they didn't want to know us!!

Allan

I don't blame you Berona, I would be disinfecting everything in sight as well, but I know what you mean about the smell of industrial disinfectants

These days, the girls hunt in packs, it has an awful reputation for hen parties

Oooh Linda, just wait till Sue gets back.!

It's fine for you living in God's second best county, but us Lancastrians know how to have a good time. :0))

Allan

Thes days Linda I'm not up to the chase in whichever direction!

Allan

I may live in Yorkshire, but I am actually a Geordie born and bred, so Lancastrians are just southerners as far as I am concerned.

Oh dear,I had forgotten about Sue, perhaps she will be out so long with her mother, that she won't read this far back

Just reminded me........

Is the white rose York or Lancaster?

I've forgotten, and was discussing this with OH today, we had differing opinions

Tec

Barbra, as a child I loved seeing the Illuminations and often wondered how they got the lights onto the trams

I suppose for most people in Lancashire Blackpool was the destination during Wakes Week

Aah Nostalgia ain't what it used to be!

Allan

Tec, White for the Yorkists and Red for the Lancastrians

I haven't named the counties as such as some weird things happened during the wars of the Roses, for example the City of York was allied to the Lancastrians

Allan

Barbra, you must have a good memory.....or a very vivid imagination :0))

Allan

I think that I had better go to bed before I get myself into any more trouble, so goodnight everyone

Good night Linda

And I must also go, things to do, people to see, Sunday paper to read

Good night Barbra and Tec

Regards

Allan

Goodnight Linda,Sleep well - keep warm,

Allan, Thanks for reminding me, did The War of The Roses in school, but it was a hundred years ago, my education I mean, not The War of The Roses,

Tec

Bye Allan, Enjoy Sunday, don't believe everything in them papers.
Bye Berona, Enjoy your company,

I'm off to bed now, sorry to desert you Barbra, but must go,

Goodnight everyone

Tec

I must go too. I have lost count of the loads of washing I have done since Friday. I seem to want to wash everything in sight, even though I know it wasn't involved in the disaster. I'm only thankful that I have carpet only in the bedrooms, and they were too far away to be affected.

Have a nice day those of you who are on my side of the equator. To those on the other side - pleasant dreams - talk to you later.

Walks on - nobody here they've all gone to bed yesterday according to the boards and for me the night is young.

I remember a TV series about "Blackpool"with David Morrisey, Sarah Parish, David Tennant (think he did Dr Who and Cassanova) and the actress that played Toyah in Coro - Georgia Taylor.

Had a nice lunch - there was eleven of us, but my friend did enought for about 30 or more people so whe will be having plenty of leftovers.

Sorry Barbra did not fare at all in NZ Lotto... sighs and wanders off.

Perse

Hi Folks,
Just to say that I'm having problems getting on-line - takes ages - so should I disappear, this is the reason.

Talk to you later (hopefully)

Regards
Tec
