    Sausage butty and hot coffee consumed. Ebay parcels wrapped and ready to go (items only sold on 13 so only a week or so late :o ), and Asda shop done (ooops...just remembered something else, good job I haven't imported it from Mysupermarket to Asda yet ;) ) so now its time to study. :wave:

    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Well I need food but I think I'm going to do a 15, maybe stretch to a 30 first!

    So if anyone fancies joining me I'm off....now!
