Hi people

Did a 5oth party last night in a pub function room
The room was was quite small and there was meant to be only 40 - 50 people coming, but in the end there was about 100 people, and there was not very much room to dance, i thought oh this is going to be interesting.
But it turned out to be a great night, got asked for 5 cards from guests, and one from the land lady.
Anyway, one of the women there kept asking for requests, about 15 - 20 of them.
Near the end of the night she said " WILL YOU STILL BE GOING IN 4 YEARS TIME", and i said " what, alive you mean":eek:
She wanted me to do her 40th in 4 years time.:eek:

You should have said yes & taken a deposit!

I guess some people have no idea when they'll pack up, but I could have answered their question with a yes, as I plan to retire when I'm 50, which is 5 years away. If anything, it might be a bit later than that, but certainly not any earlier...short of any unforseen diasters, of course.

Hi Rob
The thing is, the rates would have changed a bit by then.

in 4 years time there will be no money in this country the financal melt down would mean that NONE of us have a future living in this country every one would have moved out and the lights turned off.

but on the ofchance that that does not happen then i guess ill still be here in 4 years

Not really as it is a quote by Lady Caroline Lamb describing Lord George Gordon Byron & as such is not directed at anyone

A great lyricist, but definitely he won't be around in 4 years time

Back on Topic ?? ;)

I'll still be going in 4 years time. By that time everyone in my area will have realised that they won't be able to provide the quality that I have been giving and want to work for me.

That's the plan anyway, whether it works or not is another thing but it's good to have goals isn't it!

Can I do the whipping??

Sorry.

Will I be still going in 4 years' time?
I don't know - I may not even be alive in that time. Nothing is that certain in this world. Whether or not I'll still be in the disco business is also an uncertainty, although I'd like to think I will be, but who knows what will change to affect the profitability of the business? I can't see the expenses reducing.

Honestly dont know but if someone wanted to book me then the answer would be yes. I have always said that I am surprised to still be as busy as I am and that one day the business will give me up.

Am about to bid on ebay for your caravan that's a bargain for the complete thing :D


buzz from your disco? Told you to sort your pat checks out :p :D


Anyway back on topic:D

Yes, i'll still be going in 4 years. My plan is to stop at 55 when my pension gets a nice big boost.

Or with a bit of luck before that if things go really well.

I would like to think that I'd still be going in 4 years time. But to be honest, I couldn't guarantee that I would be. I mean, I have several roads to cross each day. You just never know if you'll see that big truck coming at ya!

Exactly my cunning plan also, my friend. :D Since I've just spent a sum of money that may take twenty years to recoup, my retirement no longer looks imminent. ;) :D :D

Maybe I'll find myself in the same boat in 5 years!

The only disaster I can see Rob is your typing.

Take those Boxing Gloves off;)

Im retiring when I can no longer carry a Peavey tear drop speaker--and chuck it onto a speaker stand---I guess your past that already ;)

Sorry to go back off topic again but strictly speaking the use of Cornish in your signature breaches Rule 23 (http://www.mobilediscodirectory.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=5580):sj:

Something you should really have thought about it before questioning my signature. :sj:http://planetsmilies.net/vicious-smiley-1763.gif (http://planetsmilies.net)

OK Steve :sorry:

It's now bilingual..... hope that is an acceptable compromise ;)

Back on topic !!

Cornwall predates Albion (the former Wessex, now known as 'England') by around 1000 years,http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornwall
Athough it has one of the lowest population densities (373 per square mile) and is among the poorest counties of the UK (62% of national average wage),It's people know how to have a good time (and pay the going rate !) :)

So both it and I will almost certainly still be around in 4 years time :D

If MY typing is a disaster, the rest of the forum may as well give up NOW!
