Why is it that partners always ask questions that MUST be answered NOW 2 minutes before home time? Had to scurry for train so no chips:( AND going to be home an hour later than usual onfirst day of abandoning Casper :(

Sounds like summink going round. My DD is sat on the loo with really bad stomach cramps. Unlike Maz's Erin, she DOES make a fuss :rolleyes:

my dd had this gastric flu a couple of weeks ago, it was really nasty.
luckily she wasn't throwing up but she really suffered with the bum gravy, stomach cramps and fever, took over a week for her appetite to return too.

God, my hair is a mess. Sigh. Wonder if I can afford to get it cut before the meet. I haven't had it cut since the first week of June, it's a right old state.

These are 20 metre targets set up for me at the 10m length - the 10m target is half the size and a bit too small for me to hit at the moment!! :rotfl:

Well, that's a nice even spread, so you're not pulling to one side or anything...

apparently though I'm supposed to 'group' even if they are all in the wrong place to start with, at least the grouping can be moved nearer the centre. That's supposed to be better than all over the place.

I had a smaller card to start with and they were all grouped around 7 o clock, but all were in the 2s and 3s.

It's really hard - trying to hold the gun, line it up, aim, breathe, not let your hand start shaking and then squeeze the trigger - apparently I 'snatch' which makes the gun move.

Hmmm - just reading govt plans to help house market. Its all very well offering to assist first time buyers but where are the houses going to come from when people like me can't afford to move having had a >100% mortgage on first property and not enough equity to make deposit for move? :mad: :mad: :mad:

I'm not saying first time buyers don't merit some help but where is the chain of supply supposed to come from? More new builds on an already saturated market, particulary for 2 bed 'exec' flats? Doesn't that make things worse for the people caught in the middle (as is the case with so many of the govt measures to 'help'):mad: :mad: :mad:

Sorry - rant over:o . I just get so :mad: :mad: :mad: at the sticking plaster approach to governing the country

There's only one thing that will help the house market, and that's lower prices. That's the unfortunate fact of it. House prices don't always rise - Kirsty Allsop was talking out of her posterior.

The Government don't want to help the house market, they want to buy votes.

And bad news in a more cheerful way - I think I'll post this again for those that missed it the first time around.

Hey you lot!

Don't give it to me - I feel rough enough...
