    Hello Jinks.

    I managed not to order any tootsie rolls or anything else - I'm so proud! Chicken roasting in oven at the mo and I'm starving.

    Do you cook your chickens from scratch then Skint? We just tend to buy them pre-roasted now. And I love the skin :D

    I gather from people's greetings to Jinky that she has told everyone that she is training to be a cattle herder in the states then? :D

    Sammy,
    Is he not on the electoral roll?
    Or council tax?
    Would it be wrong to put your address down?

    No he bunks up with a friend...he has his name down on the council house waiting list. His friend pays all the bills, even his gym membership goes through his friends bank account..

    He is a bit of a nomad...and doesn't like conforming.

    He is learning the hard way that it just doesn't pay to be like that...he can't get a job (cos he has red dreadlocks and tatoos and piercings, but he isn't thick!)

    He doesn't want to put my address down, although I suppose he could say he's been thrown out and is bunking with a friend...

    Always from scratch Lenny, not paying extra for someone else to cook it - I'm mean me!:D
