Bob is still about, but my laptop has died now after he used it. Why is that everything smells of burning after Bob has used it.

Sue and I have moved into Paddy's crate for safety as Bob has borrowed a JCB (large digger). We are not sure what he doing, hopefully digging the pond we talked about yesterday. He is driving it from the passenger seat with sticks to operate the pedals. Should I tell him it is right hand drive?

Pictures later in the week after I reload my laptop.

The dogs have taken to Bob and roll wherever he has touched, we have bathed them 6 times each today already even though we both have colds, the smell maybe not too bad and this is just a precaution.

OK, I'll try again. The other website was...er...not family friendly!

Looks like Jack Nicholson has got something for Bob too!

I love The Bobs.

Tho my favorite Bobs Tune is Pounded on A Rock, expecially the verse

"Pounded - pounded on a rock

Oh, yeah, I love my woman
With her arms of thunder and steel
But when she wraps those arms around me
It's mixed emotions that I feel
When she comes home at night
I feel joy, and I feel fright
I know she means to please me
But Lord, the way she squeeze me

Feels like I'm pounded - pounded on a rock"

Then again when I need to relive a time gone by this song rocks: http://youtube.com/watch?v=H-OeQpLf_rQ

Dang, the wind just became pretty.

Oh, Tom....I should have known we both love The Bobs! LOL. Joe and I used to pop in their CD's while sipping on white zinfandel all the time a few years back...time to dig out their CD's and give them a spin again! LOL. Carole

Bob is being great - so far he is project managing the re-styling of our garden and overseeing the digging out of the new pond.

At Bob's insistence we have not been home for several nights although we have being plying Bob with several pints of various alcoholic drinks each night in the bar at our hotel so we can (sort of) keep up to speed with his 'progress'.

We are excited at the prospect of seeing the finished project this weekend before Bob flies home with British Airways early next week (first class of course as he is returning one of Naomi Campbell's 'missing' cases). BTW - does anybody have any idea how Bob knows Naomi - perhaps a chance meeting at an anger management seminar or maybe sharing community service duties?

Anyway, Bob has obviously recruited and deployed a large team on this project as the daily order is for sixty pints of Speckled Hen beer, ten litres of single malt whiskey, ten large platters of baked potatoes (finished off with cream cheese and strawberries), one kilo of extra hot red chillies, twenty pounds of red kidney beans and ten cloves of (raw) garlic. An interesting combination I'm sure you'll agree. Strangely there have been no requests for any gardening implements or tools whatsoever - but I'm sure Bob is in control and probably utilising an eco-friendly 'feng shui' type methodology on our project.

He has also given our dogs really soft sheepskin beds although they are a bit damp and smelly and 10 each seems a bit excessive.

Will have to go now - Bob has just arrived at the hotel and is loudly demanding a pint of vodka with a quadruple chaser of 200% proof tequila with three limes and a kilo of fresh Bonaire salt.

We will try to report back later on tonight, but looking at Bob (and it's only nine o'clock in the evening here) quite honestly this looks rather unlikely.
