It's on an island, but a little bigger than Singapore...and not that far away.

A little place originally meant as a pad for Prince Jefri but he embarrassed the family just a bit so it’s a hotel. Afternoon tea is a favourite with the ladies - rather than poodle faking I went for a swim. All yours om15.

Tolouse, just guessing given your background. Had to pick a new aircraft up from there with the chief pilot once. I had about five minutes in the sim and had no idea what I was doing.

I've not been to Toulouse but I'm told it's less unpleasant than many other places in Frogland. I have an invitation to visit from an ex-colleague but am rather put off by the fact that they eat a lot of cirrhotic goose livers.

Not Toulouse, although to travel there I used to fly in an orange aeroplane from Bristol to Toulouse, then hire a car and drive through beautiful scenery to my destination. The town has a French Foreign Legion barracks, I was never tempted to join them.

Artnoon all.
The Place de Verdun, Tarbes, Hautes-Pyrénées, France seems to fit the bill.
I am off babysitting the grandaughter this afternoon, so OH if confirmed.
