The fortnight thing confused them straight away. I was ushered from house to house and ended up feeling like the family pet although I suppose I was the guest of honour.

For some reason it was vitally important to each family that I used their jacuzzi or swimming pool.kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13358545109794655543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13219187.post-1123415240900400192005-08-07T12:47:00.000+01:002005-08-07T12:47:00.000+01:00btw...lol squidbtw...lol squidScaryCherihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07617909678624222457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13219187.post-1123415131934739412005-08-07T12:45:00.000+01:002005-08-07T12:45:00.000+01:00you're baiting me....you're deliberatly baiting me...you're baiting me....you're deliberatly baiting me!
