Perhaps as well as a collie we need a rotweiler or something

No problems - Jodie (my sister's border collie) is trained to seriously maim lowlife. She's a good stalker and can sniff out undesirables at 100 yards. I can see her know as Mr Mohan approaches - crouching down on all fours, edging forward. What's this - oh no! her bottom's in the air, it's wriggling from side to side and she's away - legging it down the street. Mr M is toast guys - she's got him in a Jodie death grip from which there is no escape. I'm training her to 'bite on sight'. She's shown a picture of Mr Mohan every day and is given a biscuit when she's ripped the paper to shreds!! She loves her new favourite game.

Anyway, to the transport arrangements. I can see things are well in hand and I think you're right - we'll need a coach. I think a 52 seater should do it - we need room for Chilled and ROB to have their wicked way with Mr C - perhaps we could hire the Pop Idol bus (it looks very comfy), suitably redecorated in muted, blend in with the scenery colours of course. Anyone got any connections with ITV?

PS - ladies, take it easy with PC - he's but a simple lad with a sweet nature and totally unused to the attention of rampant and lascivious females - NOT!!!!
