Think Pete had taken leave of his sences for a while before I met him and he frequented the Modern scene for a while I will txt Glynn and Lorraines number to Pete, so you can contact them Liz. Im surprised the staff at the hotel didnt catch on when they walked past reception in the morning with enough quilts, blankets and pillows to bed a coach party down for the night. Will see what we can do regarding the hot water bottle. No problems regarding the dance Liz, but this may be the 21st Century and womens equality and all that, but one of the last bastions of male awarness is that The man leads.
