    Meant to say thanks for the thanks SSL ;) and Valli I had trouble with no results returned on someone else (forget who now!) but I think it was down to the spelling using the correct case letters as well.

    Quite a few of my posts are on Stormybay's thread and Mortgage Free in 3

    ETA links have my post listings on those threads :) TIA

    Hi all

    I really want to join in but find it so hard to keep up with you all. There is so much chat they I can't hope to keep up and then feel quilty if I can't respond to someone. What do others do who want to 'fly ' but can't keep up with it all?
    Its back to work tomorrow and I've spent most of the last 3 days doing school work. \this means I haven't even taken the christmas decs down yet. So that must be a priority tomorrow evening.

    We still have an erect tree... naked.. but erect... everything else is gone though.

    Don't read the waffle.. TBH.. I don't think many read every word.. they skim some, and post when they can.. your achievements are no less valid because you spend less time here nor are you less important as a member.

    The last couple of weeks when many have been off work hasn't meant we have had typical weeks anyway.. there has been more chat and silliness.. but once the regime of normality takes over I know I for one was struggling finding time to get here up until the holidays and I'll not be the only one.

    Nice to see you are still here though.. :D

    I'd invest in a rolex or 2.. Keep your ISA.. money devalues.. rolex's tend not to.. ditto gold.. hence the gypsies 'wear their wealth'

    and why can I not declutter the last slice of battenburg? (Other than I will vomit!)
