around 5/6 years ago?

I had great fun around 5 years ago. Desert Island and SS Utopia, was a scream, plus many others.

Great fun and young Daniel, I was always enticing him with my hotpot and my blonde g.dau about the same age as him!

Oh Chris! I forgot about young Daniel. I have some great photos of us and Jilly and oh goodness I have forgot her name, (Stiletto's come to mind) on the beach here in Tynemouth. It was a 'spur of the moment' thing after they had come back from the south I think. I hastily made a picnic for them and we ate it on the beach it was so cold and windy.

I also miss Andy from Ooopp North, what a lovely lad and so funny.

Yes I know who you mean, she had a fairly unusual name. Probably a lot in common with young Daniel. The name will come eventually I'm sure. Lol

Yes there was a lot of laughter each night on thread and I looked forward to it. No nastiness that I can recall.

Well back then it has to be Lemon and Daniel.....they used to make me laugh so much. There were excursions into Scotland, mounties at the borders, kidnapping in the garage? lots of pips flying everywhere, the wrath of Mafia Babs and a good old fashioned French guillotine with lots of old women and knitting. And who could forget the taxidermy and the murder mysteries.....lol

Yes, it was Lucia, she was lovely too.There were lots of lovely people around. Chris, I think you were one of many who used to use their grandaughters to entice young Daniel lol
