He only rang me this evening to say that he folded it and put it in his back trouser pocket. This morning his wife washed the trousers without spotting the ticket, so all he has now are a few pieces of papier-mache! He said "what can I do"? I said well the story is so unbelievable that I'm sure they will let you in, if not, you'll have to stand in the road and wave. Watch this space.

Almost every time I log into MSN I have a message from some imaginary girl who wants to "hook up" with me and show me her "holiday photos".
