    Hope that the insurance covers it.

    Has Hamster resurfaced?

    If you have holey jodhs try and wear knickers that are the same colour as the offending equestrian legwear or at least a shade paler/darker as appropriate and you can then tell your hacking partners that you are wearing the latest "two tone jodhs"..... then make them feel bad that they are just not "with it"!

    Morning all -= not to sound like the bitter old hag that I am....but

    I think divorce releases the inner tawt - tbh - I have lovely idiot ex (penguin chops - his theme song would be 'me me me how do I like me how do I like me, me me me') and evil ex Pie-O (the man who ate all the pies).

    Next time you see him pop to the loo and give his loo a good clean with his toothbrush - if he's acting like a !!!!! then usually they require a good thorough scrub.

    I signed penguin chops upto a set of leaflets on erectile dysfunction - all the way to antarctica - might have taken a while to get there but I am sure he got the message :)

    Anyway Piq well done on the update stuff that's loads off the card - I won't manage to pay much off things this month until my expenses are through and one of my pals is turning 60!! so theres a meal in edinburgh which I shouldnt' fly down for but - I spent my 40th pretty much just with OH and kids - which was fun - but I haven't seen some of my 'botanics' chums for ages so I think I will use some money to resparkle myself (naughty) and fly down for dinner in Ed - how absolutely decadent eh?

    Just done Myers-briggs stuff - anyone done that?

    And I am cleaning - my OH is allergic to logic and it seems water and cloths - he just 'doesnt know what to do'...........he's a 6ft 1 and a bit engineer - - I offered to change his nappy and then I ran quick - lumbering folks can't run quick.......

    I've done the Myers Briggs thingy, interesting stuff!

    You have to live a little Fay, it's not all debt, sparkle and have a good time with botanic friends!

    Very worried about hamster. think GG's knicker idea will have made him 'thud' before he got up, so to speak :rotfl:

    Talking of exes I got a phone call last night from mine to tell me I am the only true love of his life....lucky, aren't I?

    Thanks haley Pusillanimous Poltroon is an excellent turn of phrase, however, I'd have to keep coming back here for a bit of copy and paste....I'd never remember how to spell it!:o

    Well, I'm off to visit the Captain now, having already done an hour in the herb garden, tidying up, proud of me Fay??? Oh, and I've got washing out on the line, all the bedding, with any luck it won't rain and I can put it straight back on the bed later - it will smell lovely!:D

    They do indeed! But even I can see it's an expensive job. The rendering has come off in a huge chunk and there are large cracks spiralling out from the hole. All the back section needs to come off :eek:

    How are you hamster?? Have you a lot of work on at the moment? I suppose that's a good thing, but we do miss you....
