    You can't do that Luc, say you've found the cable then run away! Awwww!

    Morning all, I need a shower but the landlord is hear so I'm holding off until he goes. Just sat hear drinking coffee, feel slightly better about my money situation today because my best mate who owes me money is gonna set up a weekly standing order so once that's set up I should have a little cash to count on for a few weeks. Plus my auto cashback should come on the 16th which is when I start my new job. It might just be next week where I am struggling slightly.

    I had a text last night from AnnieStar, she hasn't been too well this week and hasn't been posting on the boards.

    She had a lovely time in Manchester at the meet and said how much she enjoyed meeting you all. :D

    No hangover on Sunday either :T

    Hope you feel better soon Ann :kisses3:

    Morning all! Hope you're all well.

    :grouphug: to those of you who need them, in partic. snags, sally and bookie.

    And :hello: to Philipsdj - welcome aboard!

    Had a bit of frost here this morning, but the sun has melted it away now.

    All alone at work today, so am enjoying Classic FM and talking to the birds and squirrels outside!

    Our town has a brand new Debenhams opening today, which is very exciting, esp. as I have some vouchers to spend with which I'm going to buy a new suitcase. There might be some special offers as well so although it'll prob be heaving, it's worth a look!

    The daily clickthroughs you spoke of earlier, are they on quidco and pigsback? Are there anymore I could be doing to bump my money up somewhere?!

    Have a good day all! QBx

    Yep, we certainly are. Hey there, I think I'm one of the younger ones here, I like coffee, video games and cooking food.

    I also have a bad habit of posting then disapearing for a few hours to play games. I wonder how I am gonna cope with full time work? Will I ever find time to play games again? Lol, I am so hyper this morning it's unbelievable.

    Luc - did you get your card from the gang yet??

    And yes am very up for a RFL in Glasgow or thereabouts sometime... although my race calender is fair filling up fast!

    Was at running club last night, and moaning about the fact that Montrose 10k is only 5 weeks away, and it's a shame cause i'd like to do it... and my running leader person has mailed me a 10k plan this morning and told me to enter, so now i am upping my milage faster and doing my first 10k (since 2004) on April 12th!!

    So after succesfully doing 3.5miles last week, i need to do 4.5miles on saturday... have just planned my route..!!

    Races for the year so far are...

    Montrose 10k 12/04/09
    Balmoral 5k 25/04/09
    Aberdeen 10k 24/05/09
    Leeds 10k 21/06/09

    I must be maaaaad!!!!!!!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    Hey.....that's better. Was beginning to worry that no-one was around.

    Welcome Phillip.... :)

    Luc - can't you multitask? There was the woman driving whilst breastfeeding, so surely you can plug in a cable and download pics whilst feeding?

    *runs and hides behind sofa*
    YOUR = belonging to you (your coat); YOU'RE = you are (I hope you're ok)

    really....it's not hard to understand :T
