That's pretty funny. But then I saw all the current delays :( . Glad there were none between Morecambe and Lancaster today!

If anyone can make me a model Ronald Macdonald, (I need the s, sd and ace files), I'll do the rest.

I'll use the Mideast UK route if that's OK.

One big mac as a reward for returning an inflatable Ronald? What a cheapskate company! ;)
