Why don't we have one of those complexes with cabins and a main building somewhere on an island? I like islands. Don't start without me. I'm off to the LDS this morning followed by some serious shoe shopping. Then I have youth theatre. I'll be around late this afternoon and then this evening after 8, though. Gwynne

Good Afternoon Admiral, My vote goes to a casino/health/hotel resort on a tropical island where we have blue skies and golden sands lushes fresh fruit, rock sauna's, natural spring water, a crystal clear lagoon with a waterfall, exotic flowers, gigantic green ferns, grumbling volcano that never erupts. Sundown over the ocean and the biggest full moon you ever did see, reflecting from the rock pool at night. Paradise..sign...... How about Emerald Island.? For a laugh we could throw in a couple of 'little green men' and a few carnivores. The first order of the day would be to FEED security DAVE to the CARNIVORES and sell SASSY to the two GREEN'S, after all they must be desperate for a cook... roflmao... The admiral is of course aware of the fact that Boris has to come with us as I cannot leave him alone in the Algarve, there is already a shortage of dogs and the cats and rabbits in the area have all disappeared. I would hate to think what would happen when their are no more dogs around. As you know he is not partial to human flesh but one never knows what hunger would do to a croc...or a human for that matter. FAT LADY COOK

Hi everybody I have to agree I too had in mind a sort of Faulty Towers Complex - a bit like Sandals - perhaps we could call it something like that - but have to watch ourselves - don't we - how about Espadrillos - as we want it to be somewhere warm and luscious where great footwear is not essential - I personally like Gwynne's idea of an island too. Of course Boris can come - my little Boris Jnr I think would be quite safe left here as he's young yet - Any more ideas?

Margaret Report 22 Feb 2005 15:54

Love Lindy's idea, and of course Boris has to be there, the little love. But what can I do, you wont need a head gardner if there is all this stuff growing ready for plucking. Getting worried, Maggie

Margaret - I'm sure we would - we wouldn't want it just growing willy-nilly and wild would we - have to have some husbandry to keep it in order ..... otherwise these cooks will just pick whatever and then before long we'd run out of food!!

Guinevere Report 22 Feb 2005 16:00

Margaret, The hotel would have extensive grounds where all the cabins are so we will certainly need a gardener. You could look after the golf course as well. The staff could be based in the main building which could have all the facilities that Lindy suggests plus designer shops, hair and beauty salon, 5 star restaurant, various bars and a small theatre where I can organise some cabaret. And there could be a gym for those that want it and a spa........ Gwynne

HUGE GRIN. Packing gardening gloves, magic potion (for the large growing of), and other various odds and sods that no self respecting gardener can do without. Feeling much happier, Maggie

Hey you Fat Lady Cook If i'm goner be head of security there aint going to be any carnivors feeding off me and certianly no little green men, i'll toe end them off the end of the pier, thats if weve got one, if not off the highest cliff, think i will be cracking the whip to start with, to of course establish my authority, and i'll need transport to drive around this complex, it sounds huge. If that waste of space croc comes just keep it out of my way, or i'll kick it up the garden path. Dorothy 'Espadrillos' my false teeth keep falling out trying to say it, let alone spell it, just imagine those sluuty women trying to pronouce that after a few vodka's. Anyway i'll just get packed and await the order to go, need to tone up my well honed bronzed muscular body in readyness. David Head Of security

Gwynne - why does it have to be ME that tells him how to behave? He's a big chap, so I suppose he just assumes he's boss - we'll soon put him right won't we? CB - A Frainch maid huh? Do you speak Franglais? It will be essential I think - we will have people from everywhere on our Complex so you will need to be understood. .......
