  • Is that a freudian slip? Or is that when you say one thing and you mean your mother? ;)

    I'm doing ok though. Quite tired from late-ish nights at the bar, but I'm enjoying it; really looking forward to paying off some extra debt with the funds. Just about to go and do a couple of hours - been asked as someone has called in sick.
    :p I'm the only gay in this forum :p

    either that or I just can't type...

    I liked working in a bar - it was a laugh and it was finished when you left for the night (no worrying about things hours later). Hated cleaning ashtrays but at least you don't have that joy these days.

    Well aims for august are....

    Lose 10 lbs and make £50 extra from somewhere. I think if I make an extra £50 a month I can move my DFW back a month so it's worth a try...

    Day 1 at the gym today - quite enjoyed it and there was a fair bit of eye candy too! and the sun's shining here so all good.

    Skinty,
    I'd like to get into the comping thing-where do you do most of yours from?

    Dare I venture to the comping forum???

    I'm just heading over there now Bunny - will do at least ten before I go make us some food. That's where I get all the comps from and I've won quite a few things. There's a comps ending thread which should get you started, you might win next years holiday...
