MORNING

Raining today here after 2 days of glorious sunshine. I’ve booked last minute tickets to see Belinda Carlisle tonight at her Rubaway Horses anniversary tour. Quite looking forward to it.
 
Aye, woken up by the rain absolutely thumping down.

I've just inadvertently listened to 4 minutes of The Archers. Who listens to this on purpose? So DULL.

Well if anything TOO interesting happened, half the radio 4 audience would be wiped out.
 
Nasty weather here too but been out and about before it settled in.

Now procrastinating rather than doing interview prep and packing for my holiday. MUST DO SOME WORK!

Who still takes package holidays anyway?

You would be surprised. If you want a typical beach holiday, it’s often cheaper to do it all as a package as booking things individually and a lot of people like the easiness of it all being done for them. Also, ATOL protects you if a company goes bust and covers flights, accommodation etc whereas this is not the case if you book each part separately.

People are no longer going into the high street travel agents to book them anymore, but doing it on the company’s website instead.

If Thomas Cook does go bust then it’s pretty much going to leave one tour operator holding a monopoly in the UK in the form of TUI.

Thanks for that, JUDITH CHALMERS
 
@octophone Any progress on a Moopy event?

I'm about a WEEK AWAY from all my free time evaporating so if anyone wants an emergency post boosting Moopy Mafia, just give me a prod.

Oh the WORD GAME, that could be fun in an utterly mental way. Mind you they're both mental. Will see what Octy has in store.

Go nuts. I'm a week away from having any free time and I've been busy and ill.
 
BTW - I was trying to formulate either "Moopy Blockbuster" or "Moopy Taskmaster" but my brain hasn't been behaving well enough for me to do so. I've been rather asbefluiebgla lately and need my time-off work.

That DOES sound like fun. :disco:
 
Taskmaster? Its show on Dave where comedians have to do outlandish stuff at the behest of the taskmaster. E.g. eat the most melon in a minute or build the best snowman (without snow being present)

Guess it would work like a treasure hunt but not necessarily with treasure.
