MJC ASSOCIATES  two day event in the Channel Island of Jersey takes place at Savills office in St. Helier on the 12th and 13th May. More news on this innovative marketing in the next Newsletter. 

 

 

Obviously many of you readers will not be able to attend but I am hopeful that if the event is successful, we will be able to repeat it in other locations. My thanks go to the owners who are supporting us in this event.

Thankfully by the end of this week we will be spared more debates full of promises that probably won't be kept. One of my rather "left-of-centre" daughters suggests that if Mr Cameron is " looking for change" -  we should give him 30 p and tell him to take a walk! However, it is proving somewhat more interesting than previous elections. In fact not unlike the Grand National - several runners and plenty of fences at which to fall, as Gordon Brown has discovered.

 

Once again ABC Mallorca are sponsoring this excellent charity event - for various local charities all of which deserve your support.

 

 

 

When you're from the country ~ your perception is a little different...

A Missouri farmer in his pickup, drove to a neighbour's, and knocked at the door. A boy aged about 9 opened the door

"Is your Dad home?"
"No sir, he isn't; he went to town."
"Well, is your Mother here?"
"No sir, she went to town with Dad."
"How about your brother, Howard? Is he here?"
"No sir, He went with Mom and Dad."
The rancher stood there for a few minutes, shifting from one foot to the other, and mumbling to himself.

"Is there anything I can do for you? I know where all the tools are, if you want to borrow one, or I can give dad a message."

"Well," said the rancher uncomfortably, "I really wanted to talk to your Dad. It's about your brother Howard getting my daughter, Suzie, pregnant."'

The boy thought for a moment. "You would have to talk to Dad about that. I know he charges $500 for the bull and $50 for the hog, but I don't know how much he charges for Howard.".
