and Corrie girl :D

Which reminds me. If anyone is not keen on dogs and would rather Corrie girl didn't stay in the bunkhouse, please let me know and I'll sort something out, even if it means we have to sleep in the malt lounge :( :wink:

I've a dog allergy but will be fine as long as I can sleep in a different room. Does the bunkhouse have more than 1 room? If not no problem as I can sleep in the van (which has a bed - so no hardship). :thumbup:

Hey Paul, no need. I've just managed to find a dog friendly B&B so the bunkhouse will be dog free :D
Corrie's such a big, hairy thing she was bound to get in the way anyway :lol:

Dougie - if anyone has not yet paid for the bunkhouse and you won't be out of pocket, would you mind if they paid me back? No worries if not :D
