    Fair enough. When the Zeebrugge went down, it more or less killed the booze cruises as they were back then.

    Yes I didnt know that was the reason.
    It was a he'll of a lot cheaper years ago.

    We where getting royally ripped off over here compared to Europe!!
    an EU ruling changed things in the 90s.
    I think it also basically ended price fixing in the uk

    To answer the original question.

    When I was away I had a great life. But the world economy ****ed all that up.

    So I came back with not a penny. Borrowed money for the flight.

    Now within in 18 months.

    I have a full time permanent job, with decent money for up here.

    I have my car, nowt flash but it's mine.

    Last week I've moved into a new flat and now trying to do it up.

    Its not all bad here, if you are prepared to work for it.

    It appears it was all a massive misunderstanding!

    You know what it's like when you send a text, one vowel or consonant out of place and the person you sent it to goes mad.

    It appears Duncs meant to say he would miss Pakastani Grapes, although personally i can't remember seeing them on sale in Waitrose, but maybe he shops in Sainsburys. As for squads he meant as in pickers, Pakastani Grape Pickers....

    See a few letters out of place and the whole world goes Pol Pot.
