    I'm not AOL Gemma, we use Virgin which as it's cable is normally great and the prime reason we have stuck with them as it is SOOOO reliable compared to providers we had before. Must be a problem either environmentally within the house, or with my lappy. Waiting til OH comes home tonight. He says he is scared in case I hit him with a flying laptop :o
    PMSL :rotfl::rotfl:the sort of thing I would do!
    Cathy, give me something to think about, what sort of dresses are you considering trying?

    Nothing floral, dressy, sort of a promy dress but not long length, dont know if I can pull it off!

    :wave: Gemma (and everyone else), has your OH got the new Nintendo DSi? I read in the MSE newsletter today that they're on offer at £127 (+ £4.95 delivery) until Monday on asda.com:

    http://direct.asda.com/Nintendo-DSi-White-Games-Console/003765164,default,pd.html

    Might be OK between 6 or 7 of you...? (What's your budget?)

    great idea..

    if he hadn't bought one on release day :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    thanks though :)

    he really is a complete games geek. We're on about 20-30 quid ish each, and theres 6-7 of us (the boss might give more, haven't checked yet)

    Gemma - this is only a little over your budget but how about something similar?

    Good point, most men shouldn't be allowed near either:rotfl:

    Does he play war/shooting type games? if he does, something like this might be good.

    Other than that, my last attempt is a sony reader.....I love mine :D
