    Skiergirl - the passage of terror is where you walk through this very dark room thingy and they've set up scenes from horror films and they basically just scare the crap out of you :rotfl: You can read it about here...

    The last time I took my OH through, right near the end it went pitch black and he put out his hand and got hold of somebody in front, thinking it was somebody else in our group, the lights came back on and he had hold of the guy from hellraiser :rotfl: he screamed and yelled "get the f**k away from me!" :rotfl: Oh my god I have never laughed so much in my life! :rotfl:

    Shevs - :rotfl: @ dragging your friend round! :rotfl:
    :heart: Think happy & you'll be happy :heart:

    You could combine the ''Swim with dolphins'' Piggy bank with the Vegas one as you can swim with the dolphins at Seigfried (sp?) & Roys Secret Garden. Im hoping to do that in May when I go (if it isnt ridicously expensive), they call it being a keeper for the day and look after some of the other animals and big cats too (me thinks) If I do it I'll fill you in x x x

    Hi Shevs I went to Siegfried and Roy's Secret Garden when I went to Las Vegas its situated in the Mirage Hotel. I didn't know you could swim with the dolphins there I would have loved to do that. There are some beautiful animals there especially the white tigers :D We had a lovely time sitting by the dolphin pool drinking cold drinks and ice creams just watching the dolphins swimming by. Fabulous :D:D

    Good luck with the interview Goochie my fingers and toes are crossed for you x

    Well inlaws have been and gone and we had a good old natter about things. Seems that my MIL agrees with everything me and OH feel about his SIL's situation but my FIL is having none of it and is actively encouraging her not to become independant:mad::mad:. It seems that her is discouraging her from moving in with her boyfriend saying that she would be better off as it is now with her living in her house and him in in his house even though they can't afford to live with two mortgages!!!!!!!!!! We are really beating our heads against a brick wall with this one so I'm just going to let them carry on treating her like a 16 year old and bringing up her children x

    Hope everyone else is having a good day x

    Shopping tonight will really help me lol x

    Oooo that sound fab I really cant wait to go there. Yeah I checked on the website and it tells you about being a keeper for the day but not the prices unfortunatly. If you have any hints and tips for vegas please let me know, Im currently reading my way through the vegas thread on the overseas travel board but it tends to be more hotel and flight info then what to see what to do over there. Any restraunts to go to, ones to avoid sights to see would be great x x x

    Hi all :hello:
    If anyones after dr who boxsets play.com are doing them for fab prices:
    Series 1, £14.99
    Series 2, £17.99
    Series 3, £17.99, you also get 25% off these Dr who figures when you buy any of these boxsets
    Remember to go via quidco.

    Now all I need is a cheap series 4, heard thet Morrisons have them in for £20 but I havent got one I can just pop out to to check.

    Now I really need to stop spending & start making some money, hopefully LO will go to sleep early tonight so I can get some photos of items to put on ebay, well he was up until 1:30 this morning, aghhhhhhhh!!! & still got up at his normal time of 7:30, though he is very whingey.

    sylphraven thank you so much for the info on Doctor Who boxsets. ds's have 1 and 2 so will order 3. I bought 1 and 2 at a good price but not as cheap as that. will ask OH to have a look in Morissons tomorrow.

    might be worth ordering if it'll let you anyway bunbun, then if they get new stock your in the queue already for one. You can always cancel the order if you find it cheaper else where or change your mind :)
