Jem Beech - tell the wife not to be jealous - the three girls were actually bar staff - and a question for you - who went on that holiday and was not on the photo? Remember the cricket match in 95 degrees, Paddys Bar and a certain member of the party falling asleep naked on the main dining table early one morning and the waiters set breakfast out around him? Happy Days!!!!
