The all new disastrous long weekend away for the Nicks thread

[Nick]

In certain parts of Wales the BBC signal disappears. People scamper from town to town with messages written on vellum 

[Snoopy]

I'll have the kids watch for beacons being lit on mountain tops across the country.

[Nick]

How would they know it wasn't just a normal hotel fire?

[Snoopy]

Red Sky at Night ~ Holiday Cottage is alight

Red Sky in the Morning ~ Bugger's still burning.


"Isn't it? Look you" ~ As they say in these parts.

[Nick]

That 12.30 departure time recedes. After some burbling about ironing Mrs Nick is now gardening 

She is also muttering about going swimming

[Miss Demeanour]

That should be a relief then...less time spent listening to musak and talking to weirdo's 

[Nick]

Nothing happening and it's 12.26

[Miss Demeanour]

Are you ready to go then ????

[Nick]

No point. I have to stick 3 or 4 t shirts and stuff in a bag along with a book and a toothbrush. Everything else I need is in my pockets.

Feel free to vote in the Prize Poll

[Barman]

I've voted! 

[Nick]

I had considered that option and it is not an option as the cancellation would cost us ?75

Don't cancel then - just go tomorrer... 

[Miss Demeanour]

I have faith in Mrs Nick ...it will be before the traffic gets too heavy. But whenever it will be Nick won't be ready 

[Nick]

Heavy traffic in Wales? Poor innocent child. It's the fooking tractors and sheep that are the problem

Of course the message must first be written in Welsh and only  then may it be written in English.
