Ive watched the Gavin and Stacey Xmas special tonight, was v good, and had a very nice curry as well! No alcohol, I seem to know when I've had enough (hint hint)
The lunch we had today at the Wacky Warehouse was horrible-I paid £30 for the kids to play for an hour and then have a crappy meal-not impressed.Empty pockets never held anyone back, only empty heads and empty hearts can do that -Peale0 -
I'm taking the carving knife to bed tonight, just in case. Doubt I'll sleep tho

Spud they won't come back hun. I was burgled about 5 years ago, took nearly everything of any value but was just a druggie looking for money to feed a habit. Police said they very very rarely go back to the same place againI'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....

They may very well have had a look but they also got a good old look at your dog and that was enough to scare them off. They want an easy loot and having to deal with a dog which will bark isn't an easy loot and anyway they would realise that you would be on the lookout now so even more likely they would get caughtI'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway.

Gits.
And Sally is right. She speaks words of wisdom xEmpty pockets never held anyone back, only empty heads and empty hearts can do that -Peale0 -
I think that too Sally, they might have heard the bark and not expected much but meeting the dog would put them off I think. and they will go somewhere folks aren't on the look out.Mortgage OP 2026 £860/2000Mortgage balance: £31,763
