    Fingers crossed for the young lady; she will love it.

    How old is she? My sixteen year old should be able to do this one, too.

    Well both your payments have been received Gary, so I'm looking forward to meeting you and Emma.

    If Emma can't get time off work I'll refund her payment back to you.


    Payment also received from Flyingfish and GrandadG, so looking forward to seeing you both again, Pete and Graham.




    All the best Mick

    Thanks for your kind offer Mick.

    Emma will not be given a decision on having the time off until the week before so I will not be able to give you any more notice than that.

    We both wrongly presumed that getting the time off in September wouldn't be an issue.

    Our Mick is a star, Gary.

    Feel for you and Emma. I also work in retail and work every Saturday and alternate Sundays. The September Bash falls on a weekend "on" for me, so the holiday request for two days' hols went in a week or so ago. I WILL be there; just nice once you finally get the holiday officially authorised.

    And at least it doesn't clash with Silverstone MotoGP this year - that's the weekend before.


    Fingers crossed that all goes well for you.

    Thanks for your kind offer Mick but Emma decided to change her job (only partly due to not being allowed the time off) and told her new employer that she has commitments for the 2nd & 3rd of September and they have agreed to let her have the time off.
    So there will be at least 2 hillbillies from Rochdale coming

    Brilliant news, Gary; she'll love it.

    Hope the young lady is happier in her new job and I look forward to meeting you both.
