No Alex but now I know why a lobster turns red!!!

Alex D, Donald et al. When in Derry the only place to stay is the Acorn B&B which averages aroud 20-25 quid for a night and is great. This includes a breakfast.

Alex, as promised, you can stay in my humble office/ house building. It has a sofa bed on the ground floor and a single bed at the top. It's right in the City Centre and staggering distance home!! Donald and yourself are more than welcome to stay there as long as you bring the milk!!

It's called the Old Dear Hunter! boom boom, Is the milk for Donald?, Vinny a sofa bed and single bed at the top,that must be a lot of stairs!! What do you get up to at 'work' Vinny? Lobsters turn red when you pull their trunks down in the swimming, everyone knows that Jackie!

Very good Alex! Accommodation available from the Saturday night(17th) only as my Brother will be staying there the night before. We are having a session for me Mum and Dad's 40th Wedding Anniversary.

sounds good Vinny. wilke's also offered but as he's only returning from holiday the day before his lovely wife might not appreciate it. I would only be coming across for the Saturday anyway. Scuse my ignorance but how far is it from Belfast to derry?-pane train or automobile?Are you up for it alex? You dont have to drink milk but it might be a good idea cos I've heard you drank the last bar dry of Vodka last week- is this true?

Vinny I thought you were 45 how come its only your parents 40th :)

Donald, I'm 50 actually and I was adopted from a colony of early Undertones fans who were living off the west coast of Ireland in a shoebox!! Belfast to Derry is 72 miles but the airport is a wee bit closer, about 65. This is irrelevant as you'll probably get a bus into Belfast and then the Belfast to Derry FLYER(takes about an hour and a half). ULSTERBUS/ TRANSLINK are on 02871 262261 or check their website which is probably www.translink.co.uk

Found an internet cafe in Perranporth of all places. How are you guys? Having a miserable time - everyone's been sick and the sun has only appeared on about 3 of the days we've managed to get out. Oh well. Hope Lindsay's having a beter time. Look forward to catching up next week.

unfortunately Jackie,I just don't get the time I had a year ago.I will say how chuffed I was that (a)the new songs just sound so classy, really really good they are.My favourite was 'oh Please'(written by MB apparently), but now the others have caught up with it.great tunes, great feel and tempo to them, I cant wait to have them on CD.(should be availavble on the net so I heard)The only one I'm not that keen on is 'Shutdown'.and (b).....'Bittersweet' is back!! i'm so chuffed the band have put it on the list and I wonder if it will be a part of the new CD as it wasn't released previously.'Bittersweet' is such a lovely song, and Paul really appeared to have to concentrate hard to get the emotion of it across.BTW Pauls radio show 'today FM' is on the net also and runs from 7-10am, I've heard its funny and entertaining.

just found out a former friend from the early 80's is/was the singer in a band called the curve. I knew she had done solo stuff, some of which I bought. Anyone know anything the band Curve. The singer is Toni Halliday. Anyone watch the programme about Bananarama the other night. Karen Woodward is even better looking now than she was in the early 80's.

will know by thursday if i will be at the gig lord i hope so .vinny sent you an e mail tonight let me know if you got it thanks .talk soon see ya

Donald, my email is highlighted here
