Captain Trips

[quote user="Angel"]Captain is your name taken from The Greatful Dead?? and that is a cool song[/quote]   No, although I see why you could think that. Its my username on a football forum and i just kept it for here too.

Hi all, a different version of Ace Of Spades http://youtube.com/watch?v=cYJUywl7CFw

[quote user="TWINKLE"]Nice.  She's like Feist and Lilly Allen rolled into one. [/quote] Remember reading that the Kate Nash album was getting rave reviews over on the TF music thread a few weks back. I must go and listen to more of it.

In no particular order Have the courage to just pack up and move to France Win the lottery (don't we all) Be able to play a musical instrument Meet the girl of my dreams Hit a hole in one Be able to talk to my friends whenever I want Give up work (see my first point) just a few I have loads more

I notice on another thread that you have been discussing Katie Melua. Here's a song of hers I really like. The Closest Thing To Crazy   http://youtube.com/watch?v=5DCacIEbAlM

Some magic from Freddie Mercury and the boys, Fat Bottomed Girls http://youtube.com/watch?v=-D99n9f3vU4  

I'm listening to The Feeling and I Love It When You Call.

One of the best current songs, Kanye West and Jesus Walks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sjzhy4XK1e8

Hi NR, I know 32k sounds alot, but I don't want to be doing all my own DIY work as I get into my 60's. I want enough money to pay people to do stuff rather than me spend a lot of time on painting, decorating, etc.and for thast reason, the upkeep of two properties may eat into our pensions. We will probably see if it is possible to keep both, but if not we would sell the French home and live in the UK near our children and grandchildren. I will have worked for more than 40 years and want my retirement to be totally enjoyable and not have to worry about affording luxuries. You are obviously happy living a simple life in France, but everybody is different and that style of life is not for us. :-)

and following the romance we now have   http://youtube.com/watch?v=PETOwS5-EtA            

We will have a pension between us of about £32k (at present day levels and a few years off at the moment), but feel we may have to sell our holiday home, as the cost of keeping two homes going on that sum, may not be possible. We don't want to live in France full time, due to family reasons. I'm not looking forward to selling a house that we have put a lot of work into, but I'd rather have decent standard of living and one home than scrimp and save to keep both going. You never know, I might win the lottery. :-)

Thanks Pip24 for your comprehensive reply. It sounds easier just to stay with my existing insurer!!

I still have 4 vouchers to use from my 2006 Supervouchers and am glad that I have read this thread. I find their website substandard and at least now I know if I have to phone, I can get them to waive any charges.

Heres a band from the 60's, The Mama's and Papa's and Creque Alley http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nINgn6uPLM That Mama Cass was a very big girl wasn't she?
