    is that why your FB status has gone from 'single' to 'it's complicated' ;) :rotfl:
    Hahahaha....er.....no! :p

    But I like your thinking... :rotfl:

    Thanks to everyone who has posted messages about my ECG today - I was really very scared, but I'm so relieved it was all okay. I thought it would just be stress, but my Gran had heart problems, my Dad has high blood pressure etc, so I was a bit worried.

    Can't wait to go running again now! :j


    Sorry you're stressed out Gemmzie. :grouphug:

    it's bizarrely quiet this year so far for bonfire night. Maybe more will get going after 7 or so. It's been quiet for the last week or so - only one 'set' last night which is unusual these days.
    :D"Stay Wonky":D

    Oh well, that idea lasted all of 2 hours:rotfl:

    Good...because I was going to give you the Stiff Talking To (tm) ;)

    Last person I did that for ended up *not* buying a house in Spain. I bet they're glad now...

    At least someone listened about NOT buying in Spain Z! One of my work colleagues bought last year and now theyare offering a BOGOF on the same properties.
    Serves him right for being so full of himself and refusing pref rates for his freinds to rent...what goes around bites you in the *rse

    It was the XOH's sister and brother in law. They had a financial advisor, who had been giving pretty poor advice, but was also a "friend" so they felt they couldn't tell him to go forth and multiply.

    I did a real hatchet job on it. Spreadsheets, comparison properties, cash-flow projections...
