    I think it's a man thing, all of the ones I know seem to be able to sleep forever, possibly with the exception of my dad, but he's used to early starts for his job.

    Talking of births, my friend had some dressings changed yesterday after his operation last week and they gave him gas and air for the pain. I associated that with births and was thinking about pain killers, I know some people want natural births, but I don't think I could cope with the pain, if I ever have kids I'll take all the drugs they can give me lol.

    That's a pain about your bills Jen... I've just reserved my computer, it vanished from the Dixons & Currys website so I've had a panic and bought it. The only problem is I'm in Brighton so my dad has to collect it from Guildford for me as that's the only place they still have it around here and they aren't posting them anymore. Oops...

    Hello to anyone about.

    Oh Nikki i bet you will be well excited when you get the PC!

    I am addicted to a game on the st minver sites Chain Reactors, managed to win over £6 on it on one site today, hoping to get to £10 to withdraw today :)

    Or not.... lol. Got up to £9.25 and then lost my luck so back to what i started with :(

    Still made a bit of profit on the other sites though but daren't go back today as don't wanna lose that!
    Now a SAHM trying to earn some spare pennies each month
  • Thsi thread has been so quiet. Lilmiss is the chain reactor game random, or is there some sort of skill involved?

    I've done a lot today and it's not even 1pm. I posted some shoes back that didn't fit, posted ebay items, washed my hair, and now I'm going to have a quick whizz round my room and then put in a load of washing. Ohhh and I must phone minxy bingo about my ID :mad:

    Are any of you NOT doing anything for Valentine's? Haha.

    Its random, just have to hope you get a nice group of smiley faces but its fun. I should have stopped when i got the £9.25 though! I am down to 45p now but i had £2.40 before i started. :rolleyes:

    I am doing nothing for valentines, i don't celebrate it, think its a pile of tosh lol.
