    Rain dance, that's our secret weapon. Or the equivalent for snow. Snow Tai Chi maybe? Nothing so speedy and ungraceful as the tango or anything!

    Apparently I have 11 RiSi books arrive today! Gonna be like Christmas when I get home! Have decided to get over my fear of ju ju and order the books on making the wedding stationary from amazon when my Qype voucher comes through. My absolute dream is being able to work for myself from home so I can also take care of the house, and the kids when they come, and be more flexible in my working. But it would have to be something creative, not the job I do now just from home!

    He was meant to be wearing nothing but leg warmers? I was picturing him in a blue boiler suite tucked in to neon pink leg warmers! :o no wonder I thought people were over reacting :rotfl:

    Right so Sunday we need clear weather, and Monday we need it to be like a snowy hell. Best get on the better side of the weather man!

    Oh dear, did I just assume he was in the nud?! What does that say about me??!!

    Talking of your crafting from home Dinah, what is it that you want to do? Wedding Invitations and bits? I'd love to be able to sell my baking bits at village fairs and such! Don't think I'd have the guts incase someone got ill from my baking, my family are fairing well with it but they might have stomachs of steel or something.

    Yeah I originally wanted to do that but have to get all this health and safety certification for my kitchen and I wouldnt pass because the cat and rabbit have access.

    Yep looking at doing wedding invites, orders of service, maybe favours too, I need more information to decide!

  • Have any of you girls (boys?) ever had a discrepancy between your bank balance and your available funds that you can't explain? My available funds are about £1000 less than my balance (!) but when I went in and asked just now, the man said there are no pending payments and was I sure I had no direct debits due and hadn't written any cheques? Well, certainly not for that much! He's going to call me in the morning when 'we should know more' but I'm a bit worried!!
