The ultimate incentive to get debt free, can I do it by New Years?

Same here, OH used to have a 'thing' for Rachel Bilson. She doesn't look a thing like me! At least I tend to lean towards people who kind of look a bit like OH -Gary Barlow, the vicar from Hollyoaks who turned out to be gay and then got killed by a mad man, you know. Things along those lines!

Looks like you're off to see The Reader Dinah!

Your OH reminded me a bit of John Travolta in your flickr pics, although maybe that was because I had Pulp Fiction in my mind. The only celebrity OH looks like is Jennifer Aniston a bit around the jawline

And you're right, it IS just a train, I'll tell him that, thanks!

Oh no, to us it is but to men it's a train that goes really really really fast ''n stuff''

Denmark does look stunning, if I had a list it would be on it.

Your nieces and nephews have some lovely names too, nice to know people are still using proper names instead of Pineapple or something!

Hey Tete, they've just moved in January, but I am hoping to go over soon when I get all this Uni stuff sorted out.

They live in Copenhagen, towards the suburbs I think. So far they really like it, and it's a lot closer to home than their last place in New Jersey.

My nephew Daniel was really freaked out by people speaking Danish - he couldn't understand why he didn't know what the people were saying, LOL.

If you ever go, let me know Tete and I'll ask my sis for some recommendations x

haha, he'd love that! Thinking about it he does a bit actually, thankfully he doesn't have a chin dimple.

Your OH looks like Ms. Aniston?! I thought you meant you until I read it properly.

He might go and see it with you then! I don't mind OH fancying famous people, it just bothers me a bit that no-one he likes looks remotely like me, they're all really petite and tiny with either really dark hair or red hair, it's a bit disconcerting!

My OH is obsessed with Megan Fox and Jessica Alba- both skinny, tanned and big breasted, nothing like me! It doesn't really bother me, it'd bother me a lot more if he liked 'real' girls we know! Although last year when we went to the gym together there was a 15 year old on work experience there and OH fell in love with her; she was his ideal woman- petite, beautiful, really sporty (she was training to do the pentathalon), if she had been older I would have felt really threatened, but as it was I just found it really funny! She clearly just thought that he was 'old', think that was a bit of a blow to the ego! :rotfl:

I'm very intrigued by the museum of childhood! Hmmm, day out is being planned now! :T

Glad to hear about your nephew Lara! It does sound like a pain being so far away from everyone though, I'd hate to be far away from my family, especially when I have children. My parents moved away from their home towns before I was born so I never had a close family network around me and I missed out on close relationships with grandparents etc.

Good luck convincing OH to take the plane to Paris. Planes are more fun that trains anyway, and £70 is a lot of money, think of the lovely things you could do with that extra cash!

Haha, aww, poor thing! Serves him right though!

LOL! I can't decide if that's worse for her or him! :rotfl:

Hehe, I know! I keep reminding him about 'the time he fell in love with a girl 10 years younger than him!'. He just looks sad and wistful and asks why can't I do the pentathalon!

I do my own version of it- walking (to the shops), running (around the sales), weights (carrying shopping bags), gymnastics (well, it is difficult to get up off a chair in a coffee shop when you're laden down with bags and you're just eaten a muffin!) and yoga (well, isn't lying flat on your back a yoga move?) :rotfl:

At the museum of childhood they have a Victorian school room with a man all dressed up playing a mean teacher. Well they did about 8 years ago! Still it's really fun, looking at all the old toys. Sudbury Hall is really pretty too. Only an hour and a bit away from me so not too bad travel wise.

Bless your OH Birdie! :rotfl: Thankfully OH only has The OC girl he lusts after, where as I come out with a list of any man who's ever played a remotely romtantic person wearing a cravat! I don't think I'd fair too well if he started lusting after an actual person. :rolleyes:

I don't think men know the daily strains we put ourselves through!

Is yoga part of the pentathlon??!

I think OH having Jen's jawline isn't such a bad thing for him, she's got a manly jaw I think. And his is stubblier Ahhh, I get to see him tonight, can't wait, haven't seen him since Friday and that's the longest since about our second date I think! Can't wait to see his little Aniston face!
