I love my uncle Ernie!

ETA - explanation for the Americans:
Do I pay off chunk of holiday credit cards or opt for shiny palm + supermarket trolley dash round Amazon....

(grin) It's not that big or I'd be telling people to pack a bag and meet me at the airport! It would buy a big shiny and a lot of Amazon, but not so much of the holiday credit cards... :( You can seen I've been under the influence of M recently! My family are mentioning new and improved Christmas presents too...

Ok, so it's everyone's uncle Ernie, not my actual great uncle Ernest :)

Credit will be forever. Spending and shopping is for right now!

Thanks for the books! They came today. All ready for me to talk the talk. Looking forward to bangers and mash and getting all duded up for the stalls at the show. heh.

You saw there and half day and day trips to Stonehenge plus other places right? Might be worth emailing nearer the time, am not sure how often they'd run in March - what the demand would be. Blenheim Palace is quite close on that trip and is an impressive stately home, Bath is interesting with the Roman baths, abbey, shops and architecture. Don't bother with the cream tea type stuff, can do that anywhere even mine courtesy of the supermarket! Windsor is interesting for the castle and ye olde English shops, same with Winchester and Salisbury which both have lovely cathedrals. I think those are the main options to do with Stonehenge.

Oh, my head is swimming with all these choices. Yes, would love to do that area around Stone Henge. I'll be booking my flight next week (thank you bonus check!) and will be working off paying for the hotel. The rest of the money is MINE to spend. Whee!
