End of Haying, off to Ireland soon!

Haying for this season is finished! 9,360 bales all told, all in and stacked as of last Saturday...

I also went to retrieve the car and caravan from Maldon for the circus, and ended-up getting duped into pull-down. Anyway, I'm looking forward to going to see Gilad in Ireland in a couple of days time with Sica n Frederick.

George's 20th in the caravan in West Wittering was also fun last week, featuring toasts and speaches from Marv, myself and, of course, the man-of-the-moment, George. We played some games, watched some TV and ate a f*ckload, thanks to Marv's somewhat over-zealous culinary exploits...

Marv's 21st was also a laugh, although all the pubs in Billy were shut due to some Gypsy funeral, and the place being somewhat inundated with them, the police told everywhere to close for the night... (although there was a quite appealling theory that they were actually closed because they knew it was Marv's birthday, following the exploits of his 18th in the Bells!) We ended up going to Bar Vin in Horsham, wherein liquer was quaffed and quizzes were lost! :D

Bombay Saphirre is awful, by the way.
