Mo
I know they hang onto all the sides and top of the buses. My Fathers brother was a regular soldier and was posted out on the Kiba Pass after the war he stayed out there for a year before coming home when he was demobed
He use to tell us how the trains where that full with people hanging on all side and standing inside the carriages packed out.

Steve didnt tell us he had a limo at the other end I thought we had to bus it.

Rita, have you seen the state of the buses in Dehli. You certainly don't want to travel on one. Thats if you could get a seat on one, with all the people and goods that they carry.LOL
Besides Stephen has arranged limo's for us at the other end.

You must be joking Shelly and I will whizz past you. Liz has been on the the other threads.I have been readng them.

Linda had her thoughts for the day but not over the last few days.

Jean we will be on Television all next week so you can watch us make fools of ourselves.

I found my passport it was in the drawer it runs out in 2012 funny as my bus pass runs out the same time June 2012. I wonder if I can use my Bus pass in Dehli? Lol

Well one can dream.......as I always do, its Pete's family that had posh descents , his grandparents had servants & Jeeves the chauffeur , and I can remember him. and the servant carving the Sunday roast at his grandparents house in Dorset.
Oh I loved it...........still wanting to be really posh ..LOL

Marilyn, I'm not surprised you heard Shelly in St Ives - I heard her up here. Nice to have you back, your poshness adds a bit of class to the thread.

Yvonne, of course we'll be able to get your horse in the jet, she can stand at the back away from all the noise.

Rita, I've got some stick-on nails that I bought the kids for Halloween. You can have them if you want, I can easily get some more in the pound shop. You can choose between red or purple............they've got eyelashes to match.

Marilyn, I got some of those raspberry bushes a few years ago, we get loads of fruit off them and they spread.

Shelly will you lend me some of your medals please? Don't want to be the only one getting off the jet without medals pinned to me chest. I don't even have a blood donor one, I tried to give blood but they wouldn't have it.

Anyway I wouldn't waste doing them for the Olympics you will rip them to threads.

I have just bought 2 raspberry bushes in the pound shop .! do you think they will grow ? LOL
Got them soaking in a bucket of water.......then gonna get Pete to plant them in the field ....farmer wont mind me pinching a bit of his field.

Edit...
Rita are those medals pretty ???? if not I'll get some pretty ribbon and take the old tatty ones off ...LOL
