    Skinty you make me sound mean...........the heating has been on for a whole hour today and its coming back on soon for another hour:D ...........she has a fur coat too.

    It sounds just like my system, an hour before we get up (need it for hot water) and an hour in the evening. anything else is luxury!

    DD, hope things are ok, maybe you need to rest and stop thinking for a bit...

    Hope all is well with Luc if she's lurking.

    Oh I never have mine on of a morning, in the depth of the winter the kids resort to bringing their clothes downstairs and getting dressed infront of the halogen heater:rotfl: :rotfl: No way am I heating the full house while we are out all day:D I have a good hot water storage tank which is well insulated so water stays hot from the night before.

    Sorry you are struggling at the moment DD:grouphug:
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    My OH does nights too Pepe - I usually get up at 7am to find him having a full 'dinner' before bed!

    DD - hugs for you - I know its hard being DFW but maybe you could do with a weekend away - lots of walks to blow the cobwebs away, change of scenery, time to think - that sort of thing. Hope you are ok

    Sorry to quote myself, but whats the point of this carp on TV. they pick 200 women of all shapes and sizes, make the point that you are still 'beautiful even if you are fat/thin/ginger/pierced etc' and when they narrow it down to the 'final 12' they are all what could be considered as 'standard type, reasonably attractive by european standards women under 30'?!?

    Or am I missing something, me being a man?

    I agree Pepe, and DS was watching it because Mylene is on it..he thought she might pose in a bikini..
    Gok has lost his way...still i bet every chap in Britain would like his job:rotfl:
