Not heard from him for a couple of days...................

Gone to ground like a Fox on the run!

I'll bet that he is "playing possum" and just waiting for us to notice his absence. Quiet isn't it???

Too quiet

Pato fumado.... smoked duck.... I'm just about to take a batch off the smoker now!!!!

Canada, I thought of posting the exact same question this morning but for the same reason you mention I didn't.

bruce, schoolgirl error, you fell into his trap

Stevie-C I dont mind falling into Pato's trap as long as he is ok.

Mr MacDonald - nice to see you are still around - just finished off a bit of your smoked cheese from Glenuig - delicious!

And I've just had one of your chicken mcflurries.

I guess Pato could be doing a bit of 'ducking' and diving.

Or gone to see his "quack"

Perhaps he has finally managed to record Countdown - probably watching watching Rachel 24/7.

Thankyou Hampshire Rich, Just puting another batch of Lochaber Smoked Cheese on to smoke right now, Been really busy with it this year and not spent as much time in Cvo as I would like.

Perhaps we should all get together to organise a "duck hunt". There seems an awful amount of fuss searching for the now elusive Mr Pato who it seems has the ability to drive us all quackers!!!

Thanks for the concern or whatever. Well I've been to Sheffield to see my granddaughter graduate, she and I have a very special relationship and have had since she was born and I treasure that, her name is Sara and according to her I'm her "buddy", I like Sheffield a lot so, that combined with my feelings for her, I didn't need a great deal of convincing that I should be there for her big day, it's a very interesting place and has a nice student feel to it, for the experience and for a change I travelled by train from Liverpool Lime St, at the exhorbitant cost of £28 return by the way. The journey took an hour and a half, very civilised to say the least.
I stayed at The Fullwood Inn for two nights, it's a Marsdens Pub and was adequate accommodation, better value than my last visit when I stayed at the disappointing Hilton which cost an arm and a leg.
Back home in Thingwall now and the bowls team are delighted that I'm ready for selection again, as, strange as it my seem, is the Judy.

What a proud moment that must have been for you Pato!
Good luck with the bowls.
