Andan do you live near Eastleigh? I am in Locks Heath. Candy where are you?
I live in Basingstoke, Hubby and I used to go to Southampton alot shopping and generally mooching around - I like to walk down to the port and just sit down watching the sea
.
I feel a shopping trip sometime in Spring.....it would be really handy if Ikea say we wil be opening in (month) 2009. I will be able to go their after work as I am sure they are open til late.
Have a great evening

Aww a Christmas baby, so cute!!
Well considering i was meant to head back to the wine, i have had rather a productive evening.
-I have booked another massage client in
-Also deleted lots of photos off my computer as i think this was affecting how fast or rather slow it was running
-Saved a load of photos to disc
-Found somewhere to print a load off, plus i get 40 free pics, so £4.00 off which is great!!
-Also done lots of surveys including one where i have been signed up to a new shopping pannel, so that sounds good.
-Sent off two payclaims
Sometimes the best days are when you don't plan to be productive at all!:j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j

Please please please don't just save your photos to disk. back them up to a memory stick or online of both. please!! I have no photos from late 2004 to around late 2006 because the disk i saved them to erroded over time. These include birthdays and more importantly my graduation pictures. All gone. The IT guys at my mums work spent days trying to get the pictures back for me but they were too far gone. And it wasn't the firsdt time they had tried to get pictures back from a not that old disk. That was that, 2 years of memories wiped out.
Please I beg of you, save them somewhere else too, don't rely on the disk.

I'm back, and this time I mean business!
