    I have PS I love you to watch as recommended by my best mate, supposed to be a real weepy. Going to blitz the ironing and then sit with a box of tissues.

    I've read the book - was a bit sad.

    Like Pepe I'm off to the tip and have lots of wine bottles to recycle. :o

    Lou I found PS I love you a bit smaltzy.....the 'hero' had too wide a mouth, too big muscles and too white teeth for me. And I found Hilary Swank a little unbelievable in the lead role especially after some of the other films she's done. But then I had read the book!

    Hope I haven't put you off...

    No church Bookie, or are you going in your jim-jams :rotfl:

    Lou, I replied to you last night, but you'd gone :cry:

    Buffy, remember with Egg, they don't class overpayments as your usual/minimum payment, so they will try and take the direct debit even if you have paid loads that month ;)

    Don't know, but I'll be watching to find out.

    I've read the PS I Love You book also, never fancied the film :confused:

    Morning all

    I much prefered the book to the film too.

    Dragged myself to the shop for a paper at DD2's insistance, some high school musical freebie poster thingy...other than that it's a NSD for us.

    Someone's coming to pick up my tumble dryer via freecycle later - I've not used it in over a year so it's going.

    Going to go peel, blanch/cook/mash/freeze 10kg of potatoes now before they go manky.....anyone want to peel?

    So does mine Bookie but you have to leave them outside in a plastic box thing which then blows away once they've emptied it so no use unless I'm in during the day! :rotfl:

    Glad to hear you are getting your Mojo back Bookie x

    I am going to watch the film anyway, otherwise I will end up cleaning windows or something:D

    Off to do the ironing now, I may be some time:rolleyes:
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
