Harrie, you're going to visit Chicken-town! Good on ya. :D Have a great time. Btw, take some good BBQ recipes, just in case a certain someone should get out of hand.
Ummm, btw, they don't chill the beer there. You might stick to white wine. It's very popular with the ladies of Coronation Street. ;) :D

The ladies of Coronation Street! **runs off to fire up Google!**
Yep, TT, it's so exciting, I'm dying! It's been planned for a long, long time, and now the time is almost here! I'm spending two days in London with my hubby first; then we're off to Loughborough, and Dave and his missus are going to show us chicken-town and lots of places around there! I will bring some BBQ recipes, but I'll have to hold out to the end.......see, I'll need the chicken to help me with what to do and not to do, like which way to look before I cross the street, LOL! Another friend of ours is coming too, she can help me make him real tender and flavorful, spice him up but good! Oh, and I'm going to see the Royal Ballet at the Royal Opera House, a dream come true for me! After a good dose of the UK, hubby and I are going to Munich and Rothenburg, Germany! I just know I'll never want to come home.......OMG! :D :D Cheerio!

Hmmmmmm, the UK will never be the same again, once the Biscuit Queen has been there!!! ;)
I'm really looking forward to this holiday, Harrie is such great fun to be with, even if just a tad nutty, nothing like moi!! :)
We plan amongst other things, to go to York for a day, have a day in the Cotswolds, and visit Bradgate Park.
Of course, Pubs will be on the agenda too!! ;)

LOL, ya'll are completely nutty! I ain't really gonna come home with any BBQ chicken you know, he's just too sweet, actually! (OMG, a traitor to the cause!) How can you roast someone who doesn't even know where "bumps" belong?! :D
These last few days are hard, I'm ready to go! I can't wait to meet that Degsy chap, and boy, I'm really looking forward to York...and The Shambles! And meeting Dave's mum and relatives........and the chocolate over there........and watching everyone drive on the wrong side of the road, hahaha!! If I get up enough courage, maybe I'll even try it! And the countryside, and London.......dang, I'm definitely ready! Tram, you KNOW I will, thanks! I guess my next post will be piccies! Wow...........

Thank you, Peachy, I appreciate that! I would have welcomed you here before too, only I usually just check two certain forums, LOL! I already know I love UK folks and I'm sure I'll be crazy about the country, I just know it! I'm having a heart attack over it all......got a book with everything I can think of written in it and raring to go! Thanks!
PS: Love your user name! :D

Well Peachy, for me, after living there all my life, then moving to the US just over ten years ago, I have to say there's a lot of things I miss over there, apart from my family. So the excitement is still there for me, just like any time I go back "home"!! :)
Having Harrie going there to, just puts the icing on the cake, we met once before last year at Niagara Falls, had an absolute blast together, she's a real fun gal, and i can't wait to meet her again!! ;)
