    Nope, you weren't talking to yourself - the conversation was just delayed, thats all, I'd just finished work.

    Sorry to hear you can't get warm, that is *so* miserable. I never used to use throws, as Bob does, but I do now, makes the world of difference to my feet. And I have my lightweight Ikea armchair that I pull right up in front of the gas fire :rotfl: even when the fire's on low, its really warm.

    Hope you have a good day today - and stop gambling! :rotfl:

    Naughty Dr Dragon - he needs to have his pocket money docked!!!

    Whenever I lose money, it's never the fact that I've lost it that causes me so much pain - it's the fact that someone else finds it that really gets my goat!!!

    Strumpet Dr dragon NEVER does things like this (we are both tight fisted Northerners you see!) - amazing how stress takes you though isn't it? (Lets face it Dr Dragon has been totally sozzled and managed to get money out of the machine, get home by taxi and remove his contact lenses!)

    Debt-free and Proud!
    Nice to see everyone! :D Hope you have all had a good day. Am feeling very optimistic after watching the Obama inauguration - quite extraordinary and I think significant whether or not he is able to address all those challenges he has.

    Not much to report. No problems with the tennis match so safely qualified for the £25 freebie. Cheque still not cleared :mad:. But I have got another dooyoo crown - yippee! :j

    Back to work now - catching up after taking time out for the inauguration!

    Just had a catch up and see you are very busy as usual.Seems you are doing good on MBing again and your debt is coming down greatly.New windows and doors will make such a difference.We did our whole house last year and this year we hardly have the heating on as it gets warm quite quickly now.
