    Economy might be knackered, but we're all here, helping each other through some of the toughest times many of us have encountered in our financial lives. That's what makes the bad times good :T

    Right, me off to bed too, goodnight all x
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Sarah - wishing you a wonderful birthday

    Valli - LAN stands for Local Area Network - and what that means for my computer game playing kids is that they have multiple friends around, all bringing their computers with them, and they stay up all night eating rubbish, drinking fizz and playing computer games! Finally got rid of them all at 10.30 this morning, and my two are tucked up in bed.

    Flower told me earlier...you have to right click the quote button open in a new tab then using the menu bar copy and paste 'em into your reply - it's right good, I'm like a kid with a new toy...

    Hmm - checking further down the post it seems I still haven't quite mastered it LOL

    I have to confess that my soft pegs are not all one colour but I always put them out in pairs of the same colour and I get upset if I run out of them and have to use ordinary ones too. My ordinary ones are all white but I really don't like using them anymore.

    What are soft pegs? Never heard of them!

    Morning ladies!morning.gif

    I am up early chatting to my friend in America so thought I would slide in here and post and then come back later with my days goals.

    Valli, tooti, Lily, denise, boddy, mudbath and doggie - thank you for all the hugs.xx

    I did manage to do 4 things on my extras list today (well yesterday now), and one of them was make the Hobnobs so that was fab. I added ginger and sultanas this time and made them bigger than normal. They were totally divine of course, that recipe never fails!

    And you cannot put new wooden pegs with old ones, because they are a different shade of 'wood'...*chuckles*

    Happy Birthday SarahShattered!!hbsong.gif

    bighug.gifHugs to all and will be back later.

    Morning all

    Meeting went on longer than expected and by the time I returned a phone call and eaten dinner it was 10pm! :eek: so I didn't have time to check up on you all. I've started to read yesterday's thread but have run out of time. Need to get in a bit earlier to work today to finish something off.

    Will catch you all later - have a good day.
