Yes Chris. Spot on and have already 'tweeted' them

Lets see if we can make it happen.

Sounds good Big Chief CLP - go for it . .

Sounding good today - hard to believe its just over a month since the radio world changed for ever - you're sounding as comfortable and relaxed as though you'd been there for ages and ages. (The contrast between sensible Lynn and Jonny's "thoughts" may prove to be a USP of the Brekkie show!!).

Happy T'ursday e'vryone . . .

CLP,

I do believe it's worth saving, but my own opinion (other opinions are available), it shouldn't be turned into a hotel or a museum, it should remain a working studio to inspire the next generation of musicians. Abbey Road isn't just about the Beatles, it's about Radiohead, Oasis and the countless other bands who have recorded there and been inspired by who went before them. And the ones still to come.

Carl

You have my full support, for what it's worth.

Carl, I agree, if at all possible, it should remain at least in part, a working recording studio.

Hells

afternoon all,
yea Chris go go go forrit, just look both ways before you cross!

JR x

yes yes yes, I have allready done my comment. Well done Chris for starting this off.

I emailed the National Trust this morning. I think it's a brilliant idea to get them involved, not least for the boost that it will give them as an organisation. They tend to have a bit of a stuffy reputation (unfairly, I'm sure) but preserving Abbey Road Studios would make alot of people see how relevant and important the National Trust can be.

So there.

Barmy x

Chris,

Most definitely the Abbey Road Studio must be saved! And, yes, should continue as a recording studio, if at all possible.

I will email the National Trust today - power to the people and all that!

C xx

I've just emailed the NT in support of saving them as working studios.

Tortie

CLP - I'm right behind yu, have fb'd them to show my support

Chris

Will you open Friday's show with One Day Like This by Elbow?

Deevs

I'm with you Chris - will e-mail National Trust now x

ARF "all you need is love" from the Beatles or Bandaged, please

Morning fellow bloggers, happy Thursday to you all!

Have no opinion on the Abbey Road studio so won't join the debate and discussion that is going on!

Have got debt collector head on today - why won't customers pay their bills?! Humph!

I have my travel agent / organiser head on today - been booking hotels for stuff on the calendar over the coming months.

Next up (after a trip into town, or tomorrow) - the London Blog Meet stuff.

Love it!

Afternoon Chris, Afternoon All,

Just enjoying catching up on the Breakfast Show on the iplayer. Good thing about that is that you can fast forward the tracks that you don't like or have heard too much! Not that you do that often, Chris!
Agree with you about Abbey Road. Although not sure Roman A.. (Rich Russian guy) is the right buyer. Maybe the public could buy shares?

Had a lovely day in London yesterday, daughter loved the University, so, hopefully, if she gets the grades,that's where she'll be going.

Really missing you on Drivetime, Chris. I'm persevering with Simon, but it is not the same.

Mcw x

Afternoon all

I have tweeted NT my support for Abbey Road, but to keep it as a working studio.

MCW, True drivetime is not the same, just as Chris at Breakfast isn't same as Sir Tel. I wan't a Mayo fan when he stood in on drive time before but I'm coming round now.

A

Afternoon everybody

Great idea to get the NT involved in the preservation of Abbey Road as a studio full of history (and historical moments still to come!). Fingers crossed things can get sorted.

Having a Friday feeling today as have got tomorrow off work (not that it'll be a quiet one as have so much to do) but will still be waking up with CLP at 7 to kick start the day. I feel I might need more energy when I'm not in the office than when I am!!

Have great weekends all! Rx

@Terry_wogan is now following you on twitter Chris and has retweeted.
It would be fantastic if the whole of radio 2 got behind this.

Hells x

FB message sent for Abbey Road. I might tweet and email too just because I can.

Morning!

Will email the NT now - such a fabulous idea. I agree about keeping it as a working studio. I mentioned yesterday about my visit to Sun Studios in Memphis - that is still working, albeit night times only so that the day time tourists can soak up atmosphere but so that current bands can use the historic facilities and continue to make good music there. I am sure the same could be achieved at Abbey Road.

Hope you are all having a good day!

Miss P

PS - Deevs, London Blog meet - I can't do the 27th as am already busy but if you are meeting up on the Friday, I am around. let me know via face cloth.

Maplins Cribbs causeway it is then.

Thanks for tips.

Hating the snow.

MTF ( well that is what everyone is calling me) xxx.

Will get onto NT votage too.

Nearest store about 70 miles away, thems the prices you pay for living in sticksville!

MTF.xx

Miss P - me and beesmum and a couple of others are meeting Friday, what would be apres work drinks for you and me - looking forward to seeing you then

MissP

Nic and I won't be in London 'til the Saturday so I'll leave you in the very capable hands of Ms Baggy!

Hi Blogettes

I have already emailed the National Trust in support of Abbey Road. I'm already a member and know they are trying to ditch their stuffy image. Was going to leave over the hunting debate but decided to stay after their purchase first of Macca's home and now Mendips.

Note to Nic

I was not being funny yesterday over spelling of your name - trained typist - though don't tell anyone - thanks Stafford College - auto pilot spelling of Nick (sorry Nic). Just thought it was funny that you had called me by the name I wanted to be but couldn't as had already been snaffled.

Regards PJ

Baggy - look forward to it!

Have emailed the NT and also emailed just about everyone in my address book to pass on the word. Wow - I feel that I am doing good!

Miss P

Chris has just posted this on twitter -

Tomorrow on Breakfast Radio 2, 88-91 FM - all records lead to Abbey Road. The history and mystery of its magic.

What a fabulous show tomorrow is going to be!!
I will even set the alarm for 7am for this.

Hells x

Deevs, would rather have your head on!

AS

Afternoon each

I am not a huge music person (in fact i think i`m the only one on here who likes that Fireflies song which says something about good my taste is!) but i feel Abbey Road is integral to British music history so should be saved..to that end ive mailed etc NT and my friends (all 3 of them!) and weve done our bit!

Chrissie..nice to `see` you but sorry the shoulder not better still... take it easy..x

Ali.. glad the `appendix` was not the appendix so to speak! Hope you get sorted. x

Hi to the newbies too..PlaneJanet and Hellava and anyone else new or returning!

Still havent had pancakes..going to rectify that tonight..

oh and harking back to kids tv as per the other day...cant beleive we forgot Shaun the Sheep..modern genius!

Offski..

mSc x

i before e, i before e.... i cud spel when i wuz at skool..

mSc x

Oh Chrissie - I meant to say that I sympathise with the frozen shoulder. I have one too - started last April and is, if anything, getting worse. Sleepless nights, trouble getting dressed and undressed and generally a pain in the a**e (if that was biologically possible!). At least I now know that I am not alone!!

It has had one benefit - taken my mind off the dodgy knee!

Miss P

Chrissie/Miss P - on the frozen shoulder, have you tried seeing a chiropractor? Mine freezes up two or three times a year (cue lurid speculation as to the cause - it's stress-related, honestly!) and a couple of sessions usually gets it going again.

Hi Chris,

Can you please support and promote the idea of keeping Abbey Road working? The business ISN'T failing, EMI just need some money. We ALL need Abbey Road NOT a museum.

Thanks,

John

Scoobs: sorry I missed you! And thanks for the sympathy! xx

MissP: Oh No, a frozen shoulder since last April? Aaaarrgh! You poor thing. Are you getting physio, or doing anything for it? Of course, I ignored mine for over two months, just hoping it would get better. I tried acupuncture (which works brilliantly for my back pain!) but it was awful, the shoulder is too badly damaged to be helped by it. I now attend physio which I think is helping, but what a long road back. If both of us manage to get to a Blog Meet together, we'll be the ones unable to pick up our drinks - I never thought I would live to see the day!

C xx

Carl: if there is one thing that terrifies me more than spiders, it is the thought of a chiropractor! Ooooh, doesn't it hurt? I mean, really REALLY hurt? Mind you, I am almost at the stage where I would try anything, but the thought of even worse pain does worry me ever so slightly!

C xx

Hi Chrissie.

It hurts. Oh God, it hurts....but no more than the shoulder does. If it's particularly bad, I just tell her and she eases off slightly, but it really does make a difference....definitely worth a try.

Sorry Chris but I'm not with you on this one at all. I am a member of NT and I feel the £10m-£30m being claimed as the value of the building would be better spent by NT in other areas. If you are going to have a campaign style day for it on your show tomorrow, I won't be listening.
I will be back on Monday, though, as I do love the show! :O)

Nic

P.S. This is just my opinion and I know I am in the minority but sometimes you have to do and say what you feel is right, however unpopular.

Dear "Ask Carl",

Another question, if I may. Is this the sort of thing I would discuss with the physiotherapist? You know how certain sectors of the medical profession think THEY are right, and would not advise you to try something else. I am seeing the physio tomorrow (he's gorgeous and about 25, and feels nothing but pity for me and my limp left arm!) and I wonder if I should say something to him about a chiropractor?

Chrissie ... who asks a lot of questions! x

Yeah but no but . . think of the revenue for the NT Nic. If they go along with what Miss P said happens at Sun Studios (tourists by day, recording artists by night) they'd be quids in, hence more money for more preserving of beautiful and important things. It's got to be a win/win, hasn't it?

Or am I just being

Barmy xx

Nic - it's a fair point, and I think it's one that NT themselves are considering. You should still listen tomorrow though, firstly because it's a campaign to save Abbey Road, not for the NT to buy it and secondly because I suspect the music might be quite good :-)

BTW - just got offered tickets to Vernon Kay's new ITV show. Wonder if there's a text competition....

Hi Chrissie,

Good question. I know what you mean, I've had the same thing myself, but I think it's down to personal opinion really. Before I saw the chiro, I'd seen a couple of doctors, who prescribed painkillers and antiinflammatories, but they never really worked for me. I also have friends who've been to the same chiro as I have who believe that it's not helped them.

There's never any harm in asking - either the physio or a chiro. You can then go down the route that you feel most comfortable with, sometimes it's a process of elimination where you try various things until you find the one that's right for you.

Will do Christoph. As others have more for tourists and recording still to be carried on - not to be turned in to a hotel or the like!

Ipod update - the store did phone me back - person who deals on holiday !!! Got to phone tomorrow. Oh Joy.

For all north of me - the rain we have had all morning has now turned to thick blobby chucking it down snow. Again oh joy !

Beez xx

Thanks Carl - I know, it's probably a process of elimination! I'll mention it tomorrow, and then see what happens.

And, love the joke about Vernon (what an eejit) Kay!

C xx

NP Chrissie - good luck :-)

Good afternoon Blogettes

In defence of the National Trust in cases where a large sum of money is required to purchase a property - they usually have an appeal to their members (plus others) to raise the funds. The most recent one I can think of was Tyntesfield (sp?) in the South West. That required a similar amount to that being mentioned for Abbey Road - if I remember correctly and largely came from donations.

Don't miss the show tomorrow Nic - just because you don't agree with the sentiment - life's too short!!

Regards PJ

I hope that the Candyman was recorded there!

I'd be lost without my dose of sing-a-long a Sammy Davis Jnr!

xx

Hi Chrissie and Uncle Carl

I have had 2 steroid shots, am on waiting list for physio and have an rheumatology (sp) consultation at end March. I think I may have to go down the chiropractor route, even if it does sound like a type of dinosaur? What's the difference btw a chiropractor and an osteopath, by the way? Genuine question, not a joke!!!

Nic - please don't turn off the radio tomorrow! Fully understand your views and if we all thought the same, life would be dull, but you will be missing out on 2.5 hours of excellent music if Chris is focussing on material that has come out of Abbey Road. At the end of the day, it is the musicians that make the music - the studio facilitates it.

Miss P

Chrissie

I have had what was diagnosed by Doc as a frozen shoulder, went to chiropractor, who cured it ,as it was really a problem at the base of the neck.

In my experience physio's don't like Chiropractors as they think they deal with symptoms rather than causes!

A good chiropractor should look at the whole of your back and neck not just look at the shoulder as they should be ensuring it doesn't recur.

Hope you feel better soon

A

Hi MissP

Osteopathy is an approach to healthcare that emphasizes the role of the musculoskeletal system in health and disease.

Chiropractic is a health care discipline and profession that emphasizes diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, especially the spine, under the hypothesis that these disorders affect general health via the nervous system.

I think that explains everything :-)

LOL Hell fire Carl - she only asked !!!!

Creaky old lot aren't we?

Beez xx

Sorry Beez - I just nicked that off Wikipedia :-)

UC - thank you! I will send to my translation service and get back to you........

I'll be the one limping in on Friday 26th and asking for a straw so I don't have to lift a glass. I will also have St Johns Ambulance on standby just in case any of us creak overly much!!

Miss P
x

Nooooooo there was me thinking it was straight from your knowledge. :)
You got the snow yet Carl? Batting it down here - didn't think it would stick because of the rain this morning but it's near enough half an inch thick already.

Beez xx

my ten penth worth - when I had whiplash lsat year I had about 8-10 sessions of physio and this sorted it out pretty well, I aslo have excercises I should do always as apprently my hips are out of line - hey ho

I was lucky enough to get this under work medical plan so if you have that Miss P can I suggest you take that route?

Miss P - I tend to wake folk up when I stand up or sit down - my knees crack !! That should keep us awake on Friday.

Beez xx
still have a cricked neck !

LOL Beez - may have to put you in the percussion session for the Bloggers & Toggers band! Your music sheet will read:

Count to 4
Stand Up
Count to 6
Sit Down
Count 1
Stand
Count 1
Sit
etc etc

Will have large glass of something in case you get dizzy!

Miss P

Ello CLP & ALL,

Bingo Star ere....

CLP - I think it's a.... well not even a great idea ter save Abbey Road... it's a no brainer.... it's got ter be done!!!!!!!!
Like yer were saying the other day....
I can't understand why Paul McCartney doeswn't buy it... a mean it's one of the places that 'elped make 'im who 'e is today!!!!!
Suppose it's not that simple ter just buy it.... or maybe it is?????????
I'm up for joining in to save it!!!!!!!

Just wanter say ter all.... feeling up & down lately still.... my mind iz all over the place... I will put an apology on the blog Friday!!!!!!!

I notice a few celebs going through difficult times lately!!!!
A see Tiger Woods termozz iz going ter talk to the press about 'is marriage problems!!!!!!
I'll be very suprised if 'e doesn't work things out with 'is wife... az they are both capricorn - an excellent match astro wise!!!!!!!
Just it's sad Tiger 'as been jigging around behind 'is wife's back - not good!!!!!!!!
But az a think they are a really good match... she seems nice 'is wife... a think they will work it out & stay tergether!!!!!!!!

A also 'ear Cheryl Cole is still going through marriage problems!!!!!!
A feel for 'er as she's 'ad so many failed relationships... and being a cancerian she will be one of the nicest people but very easily 'urt/ sensitive!!!!!!!!
Ave written on the blog before that she & Ashley Cole are a bad match astro wise.... suppose she's been clinging onto something that's died!!!!!
Very easily done when your sensitive & been through a lot of failed relationships!!!!!!
I read she was very badly 'urt by a bloke when she was younger & that's why she turned ter music & auditioned for the X-Factor!!!!!!!!!!
Suppose even though 'er career 'as gone amazingly well... and she's wealthy... still doesn't make up for a broken 'eart!!!!!!
A always wondered what someone as nice as 'er was doing with someone like Ashley Cole... she could do/ deserves so much better!!!!!!!!

And finally Peter Andre & Katie Price.... 'earing about them in the news again terdee... a feel for Peter Andre... another person a think 'e is a very nice bloke who's been badly 'urt!!!!!
Again a bad match astro wise... Jordon being gemini... Peter Andre pisces!!!!!!!!!
Peter Andre similar ter Cheryl Cole... a think 'e could do alot better than Jordon!!!!!!!!
And being a pisces 'e will be a very sensitive/ kind bloke... must be 'ard for 'im what with things going wrong!!!!!
Az for Katie Price & Alex Reid...... The Reid a leo... so they are a good match.... don't think they will split up for this reason!!!!!
Mind Katie Price.... she seems abit all over the palce ter me!!!!!!

Oh well a find it interesting watching celebs & studying astrology... back termoz with me apology!!!!!!

Bye!

Miss P - got me dizzy just thinking about that !!
Large red wine please :)

Beez xx

Beez - it's on it's way now...br!

Miss P. We'll have to sing Sit Down by James, but change the words a little...

Oh sit down, oh, sit down,
sit down...eventually...
Sit down, down,down down dowwn
And rest your knee...

Flying in to just say..

Chiropractic.. recommend to everyone! Have had a `twisted pelvis` since birth and a nasty riding accident that burgered my back... had traction, osteopathy, physio, acupuncture ..the works. All beaten by chiropractic..keeps me going. even though it can hurt like h*ll when its done a bit of ice and right as rain..

i`m an advocate of it ..can you tell?!

And shame you not nearer Yorkshire Chrissie..my chiropractor is also yummy!

mSc x

Andy # 51: thanks for that. I did wonder if the problem is actually "somewhere else" but given that I slipped on a chip (not a chip belongining to me!) in the train station, and landed fair and square on my left shoulder, I'm pretty sure that's what caused it. I should have reported it of course, and could at least have claimed back the money for the acupunture. Hey Ho!

Thank you, and Carl for all your advice - this blog is just terrific for helping each other!

MissP: you really have my sympathy - I feel like a bit of a wimp, compared to what you are going through!

C xx

Scoobs: I've always fancied a trip to Yorkshire ....

xx

Chrissie..i cant offer a spare bed but do have a spare duvet that can be put on a hard floor to help with said shoulder...although you may have to share it with the cat...

mSc x

Chrissie

That sounds more like you could have a neuropraxis (sp)?, which is where the nerve has been compressed by the impact and will free up given physio. But could be a rotator cuff problem or CV joint. Shoulder are complicated joints.

(20+ years of rugby gives you far too much information on injuries!)

Still worth a chiropractor trip though I think

A

Andy - not good. My car failed it's MOT because of a CV joint :-)

Hurrah Chris yous have my support. Will Twit an' Facelift an' whatever other demonstration of my ineptitude shall be deemed necessary.

Fair point, Nic; of course I see what you mean about the prority given by the NT. But hey, we can protest about what isn't happening or we can get behind something that might; I'm behind this one as a nostalgic gesture and a Beatles girl, but you are perfectly entitled to abstain. As I would if we were discussing Wembley Stadium, probably.

Now then. Frozen shoulders. What a pain in the bum they are. I had one a couple years back; have no idea what triggered it but over the course of a couple days I couldn't lift me left arm, couldn't reach for me bag behind the car seat, couldn't fasten the aul Over-The-Shoulder-Boulder-Holder, couldn't dry me hair, looked like Phil flippin' Oakley, what a nause. Went for physio, no good; well, had a bit of a laff wit the physio chappie, like; but still nada. But it simply healed itself, took a good while but it did, and now am back to me normal cheerleadin', coo-eein' self.

An' yous should see me in me orange jacket wit me table-tennis bats on the runway at Liverpool Airport.

So chin (and arms) up, sweetheart.

Any road up. Hows about Come Together to kick off with tomorrow?

Just a thought...

Clodagh.xx

Just FYI - making myself listen to the ipod is having great rewards - making my way through the classical stuff at the moment, lots that I recognise when they start, mainly from fantasia I'll be honest, but still good. The current piece was in Babe the sheeppig if I'm not mistaken - very rousing!

Oakey. D'oh. Am turnin' into Renee.

xx

Clodagh, I cannot agree.

Since it was rebuilt, I have campaigned tirelessly to have Wembley Staduim recognised as a momument of great national stupidity. If and when the National Trust need to preserve it, I will be the first in the queue to stump up the £11.75 asking price.

Scoobs: keep that duvet, handy, please. Though the cat may find another place to lay its head, given that I snore like a bear in a cave (or so I am told!!)

Andy: I have written all of that info on a post-it. All the questions I have should ensure that my appointment with the lovely George over-runs!

Clodagh: as always, you give me hope!

C xx

UC - I quite like wembley stadium - when I pass it on the way home I know I'm half way there :-)

Carl. That's a fair point well made yous eejit.

I stand corrected. Wit me arm up.

Clodagh.xx

Baggy - the old Wembley was a fabulous place, steeped in history. The new ones an eyesore steeped in Windowlene.

Marvellous, Chrissie. Mind, I never went to a chiropractor.

'Avin' bin' told at an early stage by the hubby at the time, that I was losin' so much weight that if I'd a bin' a pigeon I'd 'ave 'ad me neck wrung, I was always a bit afraid of lettin' some chap get 'is 'ands round me clack an' pull.

There's only so much temptation a girl is wise to put in front of a chap.

Clodagh.xx

Clodagh - you have given me hope! Thank you.

Agree on the song choice - inspired!

Miss P

Me too agree song choice Clodagh - brilliant one.

We have a white out here - 2 ins of snow and still coming down. Don't know where it's heading but I wouldn't worry - most of it must have dropped here! I am so not going to take the post tonight !! Feet up - glass of vino - catch up on fb before cooking tea/dinner/supper.

Beez xx

Here comes the snow, dee dee doo doo....
Here comes the snow
And I say
It's all White...

Think I need a holiday...

Bring your skis Carl - more snow here than Vancouver.
Beez xx

Cheers Beez - LOL. Off to do battle with the elements.

Tonight it's Lithium and Hydrogen.

Little chemistry joke there....

Might pop in later, football permitting :-)

Cheers

Carl (already getting the Abbey Habit).

Beez: sorry to hear about the snow, I really do sympathise. I absolutely loathe the stuff now. Enjoy your glass of vino, you deserve it!

Thanks everyone for all the support and chat today!

Off home shortly, entertaining my lovely daughter's boyfriend this evening. Well, when I say that, I mean making a lot of noise when I go upstairs, before knocking on the door to say dinner's ready ....!

C xx

Evening all

So, another afternoon in yet another recruitment agency, filling in yet more paperwork with the exact same details as those listed on my rather splendiferous CV ...... was in there for about 90 minutes, forms, then a data entry test, then a copy typing test and eventually about 10 minutes with the "consultant". She made me laugh - apparently the average score on the data entry is 4000 and I got 8385 so was they were pleased with that, and my copy typing came in at 58 wpm - she said they lookj for 30 wpm so my skills are "above average" (her words). Good to know those 22 years sitting at a desk haven't gawn to waste ....!

Then went to a local GP surgery to see about registering.

It's been snowing here for a fair while. Just had a text from Nic - he's managed 1 mile in 53 minutes. Late tea tonight then!

Right, off to see what the Mayoettes have been up to.

Stay safe.

Chris, you would make a wonderful Trustee of Abbey Road - you're imaginative, creative and energetic - attributes which would be an asset.

Evening

Blimey - chucking it down out there and guess who went out to work without her brolly? That's right - now look like drowned rat and smell like wet dog. mmmmmmm

Uncle Carl - I have now inserted the babel fish and have translated the chiropractor / osteopath thingy. Thank you!

Catch you all tomorrow

Miss P

Well, we haven't got snow up here in Fife, for once. Just you lot keep it, ok?

Open morning at the Primary School today so I went along just to make sure those teachers realise what highly intelligent children they have (my 2 grandsons of course), then work till 6pm. Thankfully am doing nothing tomorrow but entertaining a friend for lunch and awaiting ELH wine delivery and Liz Earl gorgeous stuff. I'll give you lot a thought in passing.

Deevs: Recruitment Agencies - rubbish, aren't they? Don't you just want to say 'Gies a job'. xxxxxx

Annie - totally pants!

Nic still en route home: left work 2 hrs 20 mins ago. usually takes him an hour.

:-(

Evening All

Miss P you're right, it's horrible out there and I feel like I've been driving round in it all day!!

Never mind, home now, via the dentist for emergency treatment for boys - yes, both of them, and I'm not going out again until Monday!!!

Well, if it stops raining I might but no work til Monday so I might not be up for the start of Chris's show for the first time!

I have been over to the National Trust and voted for them to take over Abbey Road.

Nic, I see what you're saying about the NT concentrating on old properties but have 2 thoughts on that.

first, properties like Abbey Road are the heritage properties of the future and if we can "rescue" them now, then they can maybe be kept in good condition

second, if someone can buys Abbey Road, whether an individual or group who choose to donate, and gives it to them,I think the NT should be able to run Abbey Road at such a profit that it will make money to help support some of the more needy properties.

I'm happy for my membership fee to be used like that.

Had a real bad tea tonight, lemon chicken, rice and chips!! Well, the chinese chip shop is opposite the dentist - it would have been rude not too!!

Seza xxx

also, Bingo, really don't think you have any need to put any apology on here

I think many of us know what you have in your heart (if that's not too fanciful a term) and we see that you are a good person

Seza xx

Iagree that the NT should take over the Abbey Road Studios as it is an historical site for the future. Perhaps it could one day be used as a recording studio again.

The delectable Simon King is on ´óÏó´«Ã½2, on Shetland. Back later.

Just back from Maplins.

Yes it was painful, but not as painful as PC world or Currys.

Thanks Beez and Uncle Carl for advice.

Blooming long way to go though, luckily, I had to venture to Brizzle today, so petrol was not an issue.

Debs, literally breezed right past your front door, but, as it was coming down thick and fast, kept going.

Must eat, back in a mo.

Woo hoo - looks like we have a plugged in MTF !!! Yay.
Just need to know where my ipod touch is tomorrow and we are all up and running again- hopefully! Think I am going to insist on a replacement if I don't get satisfactory answer tomorrow.

Don't let Sylvester near Tweety Pie!!

Does that help uncle Carl?

How is everyone tonight?

Anyone been washed away today?
