Who wants to have tea with the Queen when you can go to the Gnome Reserve?

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIlpa931Z44"]YouTube - Gnome reserve[/ame]

I haven't told Merman this is where he's driving me. He'll think turning 50 has unhinged me. :rolling:

Maybe if I promise to buy him a beer here

he'll be agreeable.

Harriet! You're supposed to be thinking of that adorable little Travelocity gnome with the funny accent who's always getting into scrapes.

Or better yet, think of the scene with the gnome in the movie The Fully Monty. That one never fails to crack me up.

Better now? Sleep well and don't be creeped out by the little cuties. :lol:

I should go to the store and buy some more. Thanks for the new agenda for tomorrow. shopping, shopping, there is no stopping----me. HaHa.

"There's no place like Gnome" :lol:

Have a Devon creme on me. BTW, I have a wonderful recipe for it if you have a few hours when you get back.

Hope you get to make it to Bath. :wave:

Hey, Mermy! Hope you're not going there for the food. It sucks, especially the meat which always has a strange taste. Big D was offered the positon of global president of his Fortune 500 company, but it meant that we'd have to move to London. I just couldn't deal with living there (the food, the gloomy weather, having my pets quarantined for 6 months, being away from my family, and not being able to watch Gator football and basketball on TV). I'd rather live in the South, be close to my family, not have to quarantine my pets, and be able to watch my beloved Gators on TV than have more money.

That's pretty much what Lexi (mr. dd's kid who just came home) says about London. She says she really missed sunshine and of course, Mexican food. But, I still wish I could have talked him into visiting while she was there. The opportunity may never arise again. Oh wait, I would have had to fly there. :eek: Nevermind.

BR, BR, BR!! What am I going to do with you? Who goes to the UK for the food? We're going on a week-long pub crawl. Sort of like what we do in SoWal, only with cloudy skies. :lol: We're going to have a beer here, a beer there, a beer here...hoist a pint and think of the Mers! I know we'll be thinking of y'all when we're at the Cock and Camel. ;-)

"Find" a pub?? They're going to find us. :biggrin:

No Mexican, but what Mexican is to the US, Indian is to the UK. I'm going to come home smelling of curry. It's cheap, it's good, and it's everywhere. Hand me a sari, someone. ;-)

Besides the Indian food, you have pasties filled with every possible fruit, vegetable or meat, tea time with scones and clotted creme (my favorite time of day) and fish and chips. :drool:

Mermy, I do believe you are going to have a blast. But if you make MerMAN take you to the gnome reserve, he may have a good reason to think you have come unhinged. :lol: :wave:
