              Has he turned up yet?
              For those of a superstitious nature, I feel I should point out that Jack is retiring on Friday the 13th and he did post this on here a few months ago:

              :hate-shocked:

              Only kidding!
              Going out tonight, so I'm going to miss out on the virtual party. :doh:
              Jack, I hope you you have a great time and a very long and fulfilling retirement. Do all the things you always wanted to do (within reason) and remember the old saying which was popular back in the sixties; Smile, today is the first day of the rest of your life.
              Have a good 'un mate. :thumbsup:

                      He's stood us up, hasn't he? Probably at one of those 'surprise' bashes where people jump out of cupboards brandishing party poppers. Ah well, I'll just have to eat all this cake myself.

                            I was saving some of my 2007 Rhubarb Wine, but it's all gone now.
