ok, folks, put this one in your diary if you please!.
sunday.
july 13.. just like the shindig we held last year, this one will also be held in my back garden at our home in weston super mare, england.
Bumpety bump.
a friend texted this to me today.... a man took his wife to the doctor to be checked out as she was feeling unwell.
after examining her he took the husband to one side and sighed, ' i'm afraid it's very serious; your wife has either aids or alzheimers .. ' that's terrible ' exclaimed the man, 'but how will i know which one she's got?'.
' oh, that's easy enough sir, just put her on a bus and if she comes home, don't shag her'
.
Take care,
Rich.

Take care,
Rich.

london (reuters) - britain has lost its marbles for the second year running as a german team won the covetted title and silver trophy of the british and world marbles championship.
"we lost it big time," organiser julia mccarthy-fox told reuters from tinsley green, west sussex, adding that it was only the second time in the event`s 70-year history that a british team had not taken the title.
"we had better go out and practise.
LONDON (Reuters) - Britain has lost its marbles for the second year running as a German team won the covetted title and silver trophy of the British and World Marbles Championship.
"We lost it big time," organiser Julia McCarthy-Fox told Reuters from Tinsley Green, West Sussex, adding that it was only the second time in the event`s 70-year history that a British team had not taken the title.
"We had better go out and practise. After 68 years of straight victories we got complacent," she added.
To add insult to injury, not only was the final all-German, but the same team from near the city of Dresden in Eastern Germany that won in 2002 -- Queen Elizabeth`s Golden Jubilee year -- flicked their way to victory yet again.
"They are celebrating like mad. You would think they had won the Grand Prix," McCarthy-Fox said.
it happened all on the same day.. firstly, a fine bouncing first grandson!
his name is charlie hooper, and he arrived yesterday weighing in at 7 pounds 13 ounces.
he's pink and round and absolutely delightful.
Im sure the babys head will be wetted well,congratulations Mike and Chris.
See you round the pub,
Cheers,
Rich.
