Aye - great to meet you at last Derek. As I said elsewhere, it's not everyday we meet a real live spy. My round if I ever get to Singapore/Hong Kong/Wherever you are going to!

Have a safe trip back.

Good to meet you Derek - hope you're up this way again soon - with a better result next time. :-)

Since it was democratically decided that the loss was your fault for being here in the first place Derek, I'd take all these good wishes with a pinch of salt.

Mind, I'm sure there won't be too many objections if your next visit is some time after May 31st but before the August 1st. :-{E}

Have a safe trip home, great to have been able to put a face to another handle.

Yeah Good to meet you Derek!

One good thing to come out of the defeat, is that now I can start wearing my shirt again

Neebody's recovered yet Pilgrim - I can tell you The Strawberry was really rocking on Saturday night! Leave it off, I say.

Del Boy, I hope for your sake, you're not heading back this way, slander is one of my stronger fields, I wrote a thesis on it!

Hey Derek, I wish i'd have met you. You sound a right nice lad. But I'm banned from Strawberry from attempting to give the curtains a new lease of life. n'ee botha. !

Let's face it the world would be a helluva nicer place with more Dereks around..x

minds in the sewers the lot of you ;-) Eeeeh. I meaant wearing my Toon shirt again (rather than something else!) now our unbeaten spell is broken. Anyway I've got to start behaving myself now I've found out that Screacher knows my Dad :-)

I'll do you a deal Kats. No doubt your Dad knows my Ma (in the purest sense, I hasten to add). I won't tell ye Dad about your shirt-wearing habits (and clandestine drinking) if you don't let on to me Ma!
