Yeah, I'm all for throwing Janet up in the air - and we could guarantee a 'soft' landing by throwing her in the Loch...
In case you don't recognise me - I'm the little, bald, round fellow - this year sporting long sideburns...
I'll probably be wearing my black CVA polo shirt on the Saturday evening.
Julie W - we all tend to meet up in the Alexander Hotel on Saturday evening - looking forward to meeting you.
See you all very soon

Nick and Steve
Shame on you. Be afraid, be very afraid. Your untimely threats to throw Mrs Bishop in the air and into the loch will be thwarted. Perhaps you haven't realised that Janet has her own private army and protection force: Di Edwards, Bev Lain, Vera Bartholomew, Jan White, Philippa Tudor, Bernie Mewett, Ria Bakker and me, to name but a few. We are not the wives and daughters of Commandos for nothing and any attempt on Janet's precious person will be met with silent and deadly retribution and withdrawal of bacon sandwich privileges.
Don't turn your backs. See you soon.
Love from Jennie

Stone the corvids - all I was thinking about was a nice soft landing for Janet...
Honest! )
Pleased to see that you survived the riots Jenny and that you'll be up at The Gathering too.
See you all in a few days,
