Humph, Ive just seen it. One word - toffees arent suitable for ladies of my age! Now fudge ................. though even they stick to fillings dont they. I had a whole gold cap out on a rolo once. Never mind, just get back safe. I still have Glen now and then and who knows we may have decided on the new recruit by then. God bless, drive safely. Oh and if you go near Evercreech ......................

Ooooh, crikey......hope Heather doesn't see my secret communication with Glen about her, on page 1............. Merry

which villages are you actually visiting? maybe, just maybe I'll come & hunt you down - only take me about 45 mins!! Now, when you are washed out with this great british summer , would you care to come round for lunch & tumble dry everyone? You'd be very welcome Jess x

Have a lovely holiday Merry i think you deserve it along with some others on here that are always helping everyone out. Jen

Hmmmm Methinks that if anything occurs in the area,someone will try impersonating my dresscode and shift the blame. Note to self,*prove alibi by being present on the boards at all times............. Glen

Gonna miss you Merry, one or two nice resturants in Bicester as well as the village, have a good holiday. Rod

LOL Jess!! Didn't know you are now a sales-person for Clark's!! We are going to a place called Standlake (this is where I find I have booked a site in the US rather than UK, having done it online!) *hastily puts on false nose, attached to plastic specs and moustache, before anyone sees me* *packs tinsel G-string* Merry

Any field in particular merry , might just come and hunt you out...dont forget Bicester shopping village - good for school shoes for the kids - clarkes retail outlet jess

Lucky you Merry, I went on a coach trip to Moreton in Marsh about thirty miles from Oxford where my grandfather came from yesterday and met a very helpful librarian who found me all sorts of bits and pieces including records of the purchase of a cottage in 1741 by an ancestor and an account by a former pupil of one of my grandfather's sisters. . She was a tall quite large lady who always wore rather old-fashioned clothes, long sleeved silk or woollen dresses which had modesty vests and fairly long skirts and large lace up shoes. Her charlady used to hang up the most formidable combination knickers I have ever seen'. I remember my aunts as old ladies and can confirm the combination knickers as we used to have to go on shopping trips to Bath to buy such garments. I also found the site of my great grandfather's shop and was pleased to see the road is called Horne place. Anne

It's all to do with my Sadd / Fletcher / Dyball family, you see ..... :-) Wave as you go by Winton on your way. Oh no, you won't be going that way!

Thanks all! Jack.....our macs are packed :o(( .....thanks for the tip! *breathes sigh of relief there is now a tip on this thread* Luckily, Joy, I don't know where Brockley is! (only joking!) I promise to wave to all those places on everyones behalf! Merry

Sorry to say I'm only at Bodicote House tomorrow, or I could have said hello & taken your pic outside for you! The weather looks a bit dull at the moment......I might advise bringing a good mac with you. Jack

Merry, great idea (sends knowing wink in direction of Merry) Glen

Have a lovely time ... :-) Couldn't stop off at Brockley Cemetery, could you, and take a photograph of a tomb for me, please ? Joy
