    Sorry about the abb swearing,
    had to come home, cook dinner then get dd of to guides, while he has cause destruction, I am just really annoyed that he has devisted the hallway by taking the carpet up and cant get it back properly.
    So I have to wait until the new carpet gets fitted in the lounge, just makes it look crap!

    Sorry about the hamster watters, we have a nice little flowerbed with a hamster and 3 guinea pigs. Beth had a garden ornament on it. I had candy cremated and she is in a decroative box.

    David and his family live very close to me and they are delightful. He is a true gentleman, never starry at all, and is happy to give people his time. A real gentle giant. I'm not a football fan at all and did not realise who he was for a long time, just felt he was a quiet man with a wonderful aura of kindness. :o

    I'm a fan!

    Buns was already "buns the 2nd ;) " was worried about her reaction - but she took it really well - i think it has something to do with my gran - she says good morning to her everyday ( her and god )- asked if gran could come for her tea the other day - my aunt said "well she wont eat much " !!!

    Aww that's really nice to hear, that's exactly how he comes across in interviews and things too, that's why I like him. I'm not into the footy at all but I will always watch an interview with him :D It's that intelligence and charisma thing again ;)
    That ain't working! That's the way to do it, money for nothing and TV's for free ;)

    watters, sorry about your hamster :( glad your LO took it ok..
    I had a lovely Black Moor fish that died out of the blue (It was so tame I could stroke it and it would swim into my hand when I had to change the water etc!!! I promised myself never again!!! I don't want to develop any close connections anymore because it is just hard to lose things that are dear to you ...so I guess your LO took it better than me too!!:o

    Cathy...Yes I agree !!! MEN :rolleyes: Don't they have their own worlds?!!! Hope all goes well. Try not to let it ruin your calm..
