    quiet word to Molly - well done for keeping it up after your anniversary...sometimes the lustre can fade as the targets go but really, there have been so many days where I wake up and think..."great...another day that I've got" and I see a parallel universe me who would have completely wasted another day and not appreciated its gifts at all.

    There have been countless days when I've thought "hmm, in another time and another place, I'd still be asleep now...or twitching for the next drink...or so rough that I really wouldn't fancy driving right now"...

    take care everyone....,

    Hello all

    Quiet on here tonight. Hope everyone is having nice saturday nights.

    Tonight is hard for me and the wine has been opened. We have some neighbours that are fairly noisy. They have VERY loud arguments and play music loudly. Never overly late but enough to make you turn the tele up. Tonight they are having a bbq with friends and the noise is mad. They have now moved indoors but lots of yelling, screaming, laughing etc.

    I don't think I'm an intolerant person. We spoke to them before and she admitted they were loud and that us english poeple were much quieter (they are portugese). They agreed to let us know when to expect parties. Obviously slipped their minds:mad:. If it carries on past 11 then I WILL be knocking on thier door. Doesn't worry me but get fed up with this (we had neighbours the other side who caused horrendous problems with all night parties and who eventually did a moonlit flit!:eek:)

    Sorry to whinge but am feeling fed up. Know wine doesn't help but tonight I feel I NEED it. Not good.

    Oh......:mad::mad: Don't get me started on that. We had that happen the other week, and it bloody went on all night, Shouting,roaring and cheering coming from the garden all night. It was the first time it ever happened but still was bloody annoying. We have thunderstorms here in N.I tonight so no chance of it tonight thankfully

    can almost feel the need for it on your behalf....can I assume you'll be doing very loud drum-n-bass step aerobics at 6am to get your revenge tomorrow?

    Hi Guys,

    Just wanted to say: sorry I have not been about but I have been soooo ill.

    Been dragging myself to work and its been hell and then dragging myself home and to bed. Had to work today, don't know how I did it?

    So will catch up with the posts hopefully tomorrow?

    So just to let you know I am thinking of you all and sending you all hugs and lots a love.

    God Bless
