    Evening all and thank you for your kind messages on here and on FB. Both are doing very very well. Im back at home now with Jack and will be taking him in tomorrow to see mammy and Harry and tonight I shall have a couple of beers and watch the football and no doubt spend most of the night on the phone

    Spud - Well done on the money

    Linda - Hope your appointment went well

    PS BTW I took the photo of me in the scrubs gear because as I know so many of you think I bear an uncanny resemblance to George Clooney I thought put it on here and treat you all :D

    Crumbs that is a lot of money. Nowonder you cried in the car. (((((hugs)))))))

    (faints - never having had Jewelley worth more then 15 quid!)

    My own stuff is worth nowt, and I prefer it that way. The stuff I sold was all inherited from me mam who loved her bling :rolleyes:

    They told me how much, I said I'd think about it, then went and sat in the car park and cried for half an hour, composed meself and went back.

    Now to use it wisely, and do F&Fs to pay off as much of our debt as I can :o

    Can I pick your brains please folks.

    Those of you that stayed in the Days Inn Hotel at Manchester which site did you book through. OH is going to see a concert in November and he is stressing about finding reasonable accomodation.

    Their site says £90 for 2 with breakfast but I am sure it was cheaper than that.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
