I am certainly up for it. One of the blessings of being retired is that it doesn't matter what day of the week it is. If any of you are ex services, I think the Navy Club (if it is still going) is just up the road from HMS. Vernon (Victorys home)
and if I remember correctly will let you have accommodation.If anyone living in Partsmouth area can verify this, that would be great.

That should be the maritime club, queenstreet, portsmouth. still going, checked on google. Only one problem, doesn't seem to be any single rooms now, d'bles or twin rooms.

"Hon they have a lawn mowing class, which apparently also doubles as an ironing class"?

Of course this ironing is working with scale iron .. but that's just a "small" detail"

I have to travel from Inverness so I have to go on 9 july as I'll be in Yeovil and the cost of coming down specially would have to be later in the year.
