    Indeed Ham. You are quite correct. The floor does remain in need of a bit of attention. I am sure it can wait for you to do it next year.
    For those who are interested. Here are a few pics of Hams visit to the festival two years ago.
    Firsty, if you dont know already, he arrived on his own privately owned bus which he calls 'Travel Smarter'.


    He certainly works hard mind




    The problems lie after the festival. When he spots something he likes, Ham does not know when to stop and can get a little unruly




    He likes Wales so much he decided on a whim to buy a pub up in the mountains, which he seems proud to own.




    He allowed some riff raff in the day her purchased it, but said from here on in it would be prior arrangment. Doh, wats he like eh!


    I have a funny feeling he will phone me later to tell me that we are banned from the pub now after these relavations lol

    Derek, you'll not catch me wasting my hard earned (and fast dwindling) pension on telephone calls when this forum passes on messages free of charge!

    True, I did think of banning you from my wee pub "in the mountains" but as rumour has it that you are a really big spender in The Red Cow Inn (also assorted branches of Wetherspoons, The Tredegar Arms, etc., etc) I realise that you are contributing in no small measure to my income through your consumption of ale. No ban therefore exists - but you'd best watch your step as I could change my mind!

    Take care,
    Ham.

    I'm a nerd.
    Man, I was thinking the same exact thing! "Hey! She's famous!"

    Always, -Steve

    Edit: I'd also add that I want to hang out with Hamish someday, but I think maybe my laugh muscles would end up hurting for a few day afterward.
