Avoiding the royal weddding like the plague. I don't know of any
street parties here, so that's a bonus. Hopefully not being smoked out
of our garden by next doors bonfire like last weekend.

Driving up to Nottingham for a weekend of relaxing, walking and imbibing
the odd pint or few.

Well, I don't begrudge a bit of a ceremonial knees up for those who like
that sort of thing - and the tourists who'll be coming to watch and spending
a few of their hard earned dollars here.

Good luck to 'em - hope she lasts longer than most of the others!

No TV, and I intend to stay well clear of the West End. Other than that
working. I thought two weeks of serial Bank Holidays would be a good
opportunity to catch up before I go away end May. But the past few days
were just too nice so I decided I was entitled to a least one bank holiday
this month. So the weather may win again

Well indeed. It's a free country and it allows people to do stupid things,
look how many people watch Eastenders for example.

I'll be in the pub after I have put the shed base down, unless it rains, and
then I will be in the pub all day.

I will be, nothing like a decent bit of pomp & circumcise. That's about all
we're good at.
If nowt else, picture quality should be good and the yanks will be lapping
it up.
You should all be ashamed, ashamed I say

Not the tidiest bit of photoshopping either, but you must admit the
frame is interesting....

They do have some function: the tags and the URL were silently deleted

Does that happen with all IMG links, or just tinypic, or what? Who does

Apparently, in Mike's case, Turnpike, as they've been showing in
Thunderbird 3.6.16 on news.individual.net all along.

Panic over, my mistake.

stuart noble prefixed the IMG tags with a "" so that it looked like he
was quoting Tim Watts. I looked at Tim Watts' posting, didn't see the
tags, and assumed they had been deleted, which was not out of the
question. A quick grapple with Google Groups (spit) shows me that they
were never there in the first place.

I have booked an aeroplane and intend to take my kids flying. Far more
enjoyable than watching the wedding, although I understand SWMBO plans to.

At least if you have a job you get holidays. Being retired you completely
miss-out.

No, you don't.

You just don't notice the difference, because you're on holiday _every_
day.
