    its number five!

    sad but true, it features so rarely in my life I don't even think about it much any more!

    It's number 8 on mine!! It's been over 3 years now :eek:

    Don't know if I can still remember how to fake it :rotfl:

    Same here:rolleyes: However, am hoping that by the end of 2009 things might be different, so I put it on just in case.;)

    Hellooooo, I made it back! Got back to Falmouth just after 8pm friday, was in the pub by 9.30 getting sozzled :D

    Went to a gig last night with a lovely girl who's a fresher at my uni, we got on really well so when she comes back after xmas will see her again and see what happens.

    Spent all day in bed recovering from the clubbing after the gig (without the girl :( ) and looking forward to going home tomorrow.

    Sarah: well done on the clearout, be strong and don't buy any clothes or makeup for at least 12 months!

    Everyone else: The 100 things list is a really good one, we could start another thread or just do it on here? Post up our lists and show what we've acheived over the year...

    I'm sorry for the demon I've become but you should be sorry for the angel you are not.

    Nevertheless she persisted.

  • Welcome back to blighty TDQO! :kisses3:

    Looks like you hit the ground running eh! Don't waste much time do you?!! :rotfl:Seriously, what a great return home! Must've made it almost worth the months of having just a bunch of miners for company!!

    I like the idea of posting our 100 things, although perhaps we could do it on a quarterly basis, you know, like a seasonal challenge of 25 things, keep it short & sweet???

    (this is just because I've only come up with 22 things and most of those are things I already do!)

    that is very sucky.

    hmmm. like Skinty said, why the dinner?
    Nevertheless she persisted.
  • Welcome back TDQO, good work on getting to the pub so quickly:D

    I think lists of 100 might be a bit unmanageable to post but maybe people can post back with the number on their list when they've done it.
