| "when will the pool be finished"It will be done before you arrive ... even if you are coming this afternoon!!"last time I was in the UK I got seriously ripped off"Did you stay with me then? "You said home... it is a house or ?"Yup, a house where we are making our home.I actually originally wrote "We took possession of our new house yesterday" and changed it because I thought folk might read that as a new-build. Instead you think we've got a Winnebago!"Where is it on the map?"We have a nice view of Coldham Hall - but you need high powered binoculars to see any detail Kristen |

| rockmoose...."the £ is very expensive though, last time I was in the UK I got seriously ripped off."....given the price of beer in Sweden...it'd be hard to get ripped off more anywhere else!...(not that we in Dublin can hold our hands up and say we're cheap!!!) |

| "given the price of beer in Sweden...it'd be hard to get ripped off more anywhere else!"Ouch, that hurt, it really did!When I go to posh places (my standard) I pay for a pint appx £3.00That would be a standard price for a pint at the pub But I think our currency is quickly approaching the status of a, as I like to call "peseta-money".Cents are hardly heard of, and the smallest coin is 50cent, why do we bother!!50cent = £0.0381krona = £0.075You may laugh if you want In norway, oh that's a ripoff - big time!, due to all the oil their prices are seriously inflated!They go to sweden, swedes go to poland.rockmoose |

Hang on Guys, Kristen is on the phone"What's that, you're going to pay for everyone (and partners) to come over for your housewarming?""And you're going to put them all up in a 5 star hotel""Very generous of you Kristen, See you there""You'll charge it to company expenses, OK"Right I'm back now. I think Kristen will be making an announcement about this soon, so I don't want to spoil the suprise, can you all pretend you don't know. steve-----------Don't worry head. The computer will do all the thinking from now on. |

| "I think Kristen will be making an announcement about this soon, so I don't want to spoil the suprise, can you all pretend you don't know"The bit about me saying my private jet would pick everyone up you mean? "Either you don't have much things to pack up or your wife is efficient"Sadly we have way too much stuff - 3 huge removals trucks and still plenty of junk left at the old place - including the whole of my offices ...Kristen |
