    What is Oban? Sounds like a town in the middle east. If so keep your head down, literally.

    Interesting, and I'd never heard of it.


    And I'm quite relieved it's a genuine thing, was worried you had stuttery fingers. <laugh>

    Naturally it was me back to Oban.
    5 hrs plus to come back (dodged rush hour), on twisty single carriageway roads and through glasgow, and the only hold up, was the A1, just past the metro centre. Ar##wipes!!!

    Nathan. Have you got a favourite lady shaped life sized cushion. With all the correct holes?

    Do you smother it in whipped cream and nutella chocolate and sit and watch the twilight movies together. And whisper sweet nothings into her foam filled ears?
