    Morning All

    Last night started off rather stressful but it was alright in the end - got home at 9.30, put the kids to bed, caught up with the thread and went to bed. I've started my Christamas cards so hopefully I'll post them to you tonight lil-me or tomorrow.

    Morning all, what a difference a coupla days make huh! Wednesday i was carpy, today happy. well I wont question it coz that'll make it go bad. Happy, Happy, Happy.

    Michelle - Sorry for your loss, I hope you get it sorted out so you ca go to the funeral.
    Holly - OMG, can't believe they haven't sorted it there and then (though I get the feeling i just haven't experienced this type of instance, and that the wait is probably common), hope it gets sorted ASAP
    Lil me - Forgot to mention that we posted our cards( me and jayjay) on tues, so they should be winging their way as we speak. Also, my spends diary will start from thurs pm, coz thats when I finally got around to checking my e-mail.

    On the doctors topic i work in a pharmacy and talk to lots of patients who tell me about their doctors, some are really happy with them, others really aren't, i think, on average, doctoring is like most professions where you have the good, the bad and the average....but in this line of work, when your bad, your really bad, and i've heard some real horror stories (safe to say there are a few doctors in my area I wouldn't go anywhere near).

    And on the subject of flying...might need to go find a list. I'm off to work at ten to eleven, so i should have plenty of time to get things shipshape. See you all soon

    Morning everyone,

    Big hugs Michelle, thinking of you.

    Do you have ay water yet Holly?
    Back to uni today to do my data analysis project, is slowly but surely doing my head in:o Done most of the graphs etc

    Just out of interest - Has anyone here (thinking possibly the other students) ever used R? It is a statistical software package?? Just i'm totally stumped on some of it and am getting a little desperate:p

    I just feel really sorry for people renting and with big credit card debts - the credit card interest rates don't seem to be moving down at all - that, surely, would help more people than just those with mortgages? But I guess that's a bit of a radical thought so please don't flame me!

    Hope you got a good nights sleep last night soappie...:D I agree with you about the credit cards - they get higher rather than lower...:mad: it really needs addressing...
    Well now... Re: the spammer from earlier.... I went to look at Debenhams online earlier (thanks Lil_me! :D ) Now, I don't know if this is a coincidence, but I got spam for Debenhams vouchers. Decidedly dodgy type of 'click here for untold wonders' type of spam.

    So, I've cleared all my cookies, I hate Spammers :mad:

    Good idea Sarah, I've done the same, specially after yesterdays debacle with loosing Martin... :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
