How do you fancy a long weekend, at the beginning of April? I'm going
out to Ace's place, and my regular board buddy has dropped out. I'll
be taking it very easy, and haven't been for two years myself, so
you'd not have to worry about remembering how to ride.


Heh, love to.

Unfortunately this effin' credit crunch has ****ed my income stream up,
good and proper. Looks like I'll be looking for work of some sort or
another, to stop eating into my capital. Don't think a boarding trip
atm 'works' for me in that sense.


FFS. An Easyjet flight. A couple of days of lift tickets. Some beer
money.


Quite so. And if he's that hard up he can just do the cooking to avoid
eating out.

Whether we join him for dinner is another matter altogether.

Ho hum, mebbe next year.


You say that every year...


He needs a better excuse, for sure. A weekend's boarding for, what,
around 150 notes? Where's the problem?
