Holiday Countdown.
« on: September 29, 2008, 08:24:06 PM »
Well, my work is nearly done and I'm getting ready to shoot off to Portugal on Thursday. Wednesday night will be packing night, which is always fun. It takes me 20 minutes and my wife 7 hours. At roughly 11 p.m., I will hear the words "Do you have any room in your case? I can't seem to fit the kitchen sink in mine". Bless her. On Thursday morning, I will be asked to check the tickets, passports, reservations and timetables 28 times. Bless her. The party consists of me, my wife, my sister (Diamond Lil), my daughter and her boyfriend. I have decided to spend the entire holiday asking the boyfriend about his intentions regarding my daughter. I will also ensure that there is no physical contact between them for all seven days. Harsh but fair.
Anyway, I can almost taste the cold beer and chorizo and, what's more, I won't write a single cartoon.

That sounds like a fun holiday - how nice that your sister and your daughter still like you enough that you want to go on holiday with you.

Tell your wife to leave most of her clothes at home and have fun on holidays shopping for flowery fun holiday clothes!

Enjoy your beer and leave that poor lad alone.

Thanks, Diane. As a family, for some reason, we tend to get on quite well. This will be tested by my wife's insistence that we visit Cliff Richard's nearby winery. As I know that The Peepmaster is about to hit us with some puns, I'll start off with "I'll be a Beaujolais boy until my dying day"....

Beaujolais Nouveau! Isn't that one of The Young Ones? Anyway, you're all going on a Summer Holiday. Congratulations! Enjoy a beer too, - a Traveling Light Ale might be appropriate. Throw Down a Line or two if you find an internet caf?. We'll Miss You, 'Night...!

Have a lovely holiday, Roger, and as Diane says, leave the poor boy alone!

Don't listen to them, Roger. As the father of four daughters, and a former "poor lad/boy" myself, like you, I know exactly what his intentions are. Stick to your game plan, and make the Spanish Inquisition proud.
