Guest guest Posted November 28, 1999 Report Share Posted November 28, 1999 Before Fred's character assassination of me is completed, may I set the record straight???????? Not that I'm saying Fred is a compulsive liar or anything ))) He just wouldn't know the truth if it hit him with a wet fish Ok, yes, it's true I visited Fred and Lin with my daughter. Yes it's true that KIRSTEN (my daughter) wanted to see the viking centre. What young Frederick seems to have forgotten is that in September, he e mailed me and said 'any chance we could get in cheaper if *you* told them Lin and I were disabled'. So I set up this wonderful system with Jorvik (the viking centre) whereby we could avoid the 2 hour queue ( and poor Fred avoids all that standing) but still pay full rate. Sounding a bit different yet, Fred??? ) On the day, my train ticket entitled us to half price entry to the centre as well. Instead of being the mean, hard hearted bully Frederick is trying to insist I am, I suggested to Lin and himself that we all go in a bit cheaper and split the costs. Wow, this sounds like a totally different day doesn't it!! So, as arranged, we indeed went to the front of the queue, where I explained to the woman on the cash desk that I had arranged for us to avoid the queue. This was fine, she said. I asked if we could still use the half price entry ticket. Fine she said. Anyway, she took one look at a certain person (no names, but it *wasn't* my daughter, myself or Lin), who was standing slavering and drooling and acting like Long Silver on speed and asked me if I would like to go in free as I was obviously having a difficult time looking after him!!!! And the other thing young frederick forgot to mention was that afterwards, when I performed my minderly duties with the coffee, we split the entire cost of entry between us (ie, they paid LESS than half price.) So instead of the day costing about $40, it cost $10, divided 4 ways. Like Jon says, fred you got off light. Unlike if I ever catch up with you again :-}~~~~~~~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, how women can twist the truth. I actually said " YOU could save YOURSELF some money " >So, as arranged, we indeed went to the front of the queue, where I explained >to the woman on the cash desk that I had arranged for us to avoid the queue. Actually folks, I got the idea from the Disney policy. If you are prepared to eat a bit of humble pie, then yes, this really is a way of avoiding a long painful stand in huge never moving queue's. Anyway, she took one look at a certain person (no >names, but it *wasn't* my daughter, myself or Lin), who was standing >slavering and drooling and acting like Long Silver on speed and asked >me if I would like to go in free as I was obviously having a difficult time >looking after him!!!! It is NOT true that I was pulling on Emma's skirt knagging her with " Mom! Mom! I wanna pee! " >And the other thing young frederick forgot to mention was that afterwards, >when I performed my minderly duties with the coffee, we split the entire >cost of entry between us (ie, they paid LESS than half price.) So instead >of the day costing about $40, it cost $10, divided 4 ways. Ha! She forgot something! SHE paid for the coffee!!!!!! And no, the following is NOT because of the threatening long phone call I received from her this morning, JUST to explain she was NOT talking to me anymore. But....... In all seriousness, Emma is a fantastic old woman who hides her degenerating brain very well. She has been the epitomy of parent-hood to both her daughters, and yes, particularly to my future wife - her two year old wonderful achon daughter called . If every LP kid has parents like has, then they are indeed extremely lucky kids. Imagine such a mum, with not just TWO kids, but FOUR of us, trying to walk through crowds. Talk about a mother hen with her brood. She is brilliant! There Emma, NOW will you take away the threat of a law suite? And yes, I promise to buy the coffee next time we meet - provided YOU go for it, and don't charge for your services again:-}~~~~~ Cheers Lucky Fred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let us tower above these renegade 'average' folk and LP deserters! Remember my experience! Next time an 'average' offers to 'accompany' you, ask how much it will cost:-) Fred, the poorer for the experience:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
