You get the plane tickets, I'll buy the cones when we get there

You'll have to make your own way to Heathrow!

If it's a wet ride to work in the morning, I know who I'm blaming.

I may come down to Oxford next year for a few days break, we liked it there when we used to go South instead of North

Just back (homeward journey was far less complicated), and the good news is Dad is moving around really quite well and is being discharged tomorrow!

I also used the Oxford Hire bikes!! Well they are heavy.... But I enjoyed it instead of the bus, and on the way back I managed a 7th place trophy (downhill of course), on a quiet route I presume!

But I have enjoyed the little bits of the city I've visited!

Ah, in that case it was the day my daughter got married. There was cake there too but I brought it home and now I can't find it. I have a horrible feeling it's still in the pocket of the hired suit I returned last week.

Ten days after my birthday. I didn't have cake, I had a whole steamed Sea Bream instead.

I hear he went to Dodgy Dealers in Didsbury but when he got there the forecourt was empty and the office boarded up. That's the last he will see of his 200 quid.

And I'll tell you true, after talking with those that were involved in this debacle, (plenty still alive in my childhood) Tucker Company was shadier than an old oak tree to do business with. Anybody who had the nice sales flyer and leaflet and promotional materials got them because they put $200.00 down on the car, I'm told. Many bought accessories before the cars even were produced. When they were produced, the first cars went to veterans, as was the arrangement with most auto dealers, so the folks who had put money down for cars and accessories were at the base of an endlessly growing waiting list. Among other things. I talked to some eyewitnesses to the Tucker show in Peoria that said the car could not reverse, although that is claimed to be an untruth. My father was so unimpressed he went right out and bought a used Packard.
