    Watch is kinda girly and kinda male - it has a stainless steel strap, a nice round face, black dial with a crowny type thing as the 12, real numbers for 6 3 9 and little bars for the 5 mins and 10 mins - these are pink. It has a second hand which sweeps round and the watch can wind itself, I think the hands are luminous too although I haven't woken up in the middle of the night to check:eek: I dare not post a pick as it will advertise to dodgy characters that I have something worth stealing:eek:

    I joined the FSB today and theyre FAB:rotfl:

    Shall be ok after my op as I have persuaded by ex to take me to and pick me up from the hospital (if he wants to get back with me then he has to do this because if he lets me down it will be curtains).

    Have fun oop North..s!!!!!!! around in your merc:rotfl:

    Pleased to hear that you're picking up.......but understand the frustration that it's not as speedily as you would like.....

    Great that you will be off the meds after the weekend (will you be able to consume alcohol at the virtual cheerleader party ?....by the way are we partying saturday or sunday...or both :D?)

    :kisses3: We shall, Numpty! 'Twas a *lovely* afternoon out, with being a weekday it felt like skiving and holiday both at once :rotfl:and Our Wol is very knowledgeable on her plants, it was amazing :o

    I've been lolling about ever since :D:D and am just now condescending to stand upright. Well, you see, otherwise I can't hold a cup of coffee properly, it leaks everywhere. So I have to get up.:D:D

    That pistonheads article is spot on, btw! Its especially the French who work in transport - I had a real set-to one time at the Eurostar station in Lille - they wouldn't let me on to a train that wasn't due to depart for 15 minutes because I hadn't gone through security (I thought my French was good enough to listen for announcements and it wasn't :o so mea culpa on that) and they wouldn't *put* me through security either. :mad::mad: Not nice. Still, I'm off to France next month - my sister's driving in her nice new car, so it will be a lot better. I'll see you before then tho! :j
