    blimey, I take back my shouts at the phone company - they replied instantly to my queries and they're expecting delivery in next week and we're top of the list for it :D
    so I'm giving them until Friday to get it to me, else I'll cancel but they seem rather nice now ;)

    I'm off out for Birthday drinks now (my birthday's tomorrow but having a quiet meal with OH at my favourite restaurant and so meeting up with my mates tonight instead) so I'll wish you all a lovely evening and don't trash the place too much ;)

    glad the phone situation is sorted at last :) Have a nice time tonight :)

    Katie :)

    Glad you got a helpful and quick response - I reckon customer service makes or breaks a company... hope they come through. Enjoy your drinks and happy birthday for tomorrow! :):)

    My OH isn't a man (not last time I looked anyway), I think she will be well chuffed with the creams etc. I think she reckons I have got it easy while I work notice for the next week. Don't reckon I will get much chance to do this with the new job - :(
    Only 15 min's to go to home time anyway.......

    Should have guessed that really! Ha ha! Just don't give her the anti-ageing ones... or at least don't pretend you bought them for her!! :p:p

    That's true - any chocolate is mine though, same for any red wine. We are both on diets this month and a health kick, lost about 4 pounds so far this month, OH hastoned up, but we are waiting for the 1st Feb and having a blow out - loads of junk!!!!

    Welcome to the Inn Bertman. Its very addictive!

    Mad_Gemma - glad you got the phone sorted.

    I've got a horrible stroppy DS tonight, hope hes not coming down with something. He didn't want dinner, didn't want his sweets and has been in floods of tears over dying in his computer game which is not like him!

    Splodz - my OH is exactly the same! He wants big prizes, I quite like little surprises
    Keep thinking positively

    4lb is excellent... I'm on 2lb since the beginning of Jan so not doing great but if today's laziness and the last 2 days eating is anything to go to that's not surprising!

    Mmmm chocolate :):) - we're still working our way through the christmas stuff!

    I really pigged out over Christmas knowing that I was dieting in January so we both finished all the chocolate and wine we had.
    Have you tried Asda own dark chocolate yet? only about 70p and really tasty.....
