    I HAVE JUST LOST THE LONGEST POST :mad:

    Oh My darling, That is so bad as I know your post will have taken you ages . Don't worry we all know that you are thinking of us. I always lose my posts after I have spent ages sending a long heartfelt post and NEVER when I just say HI.

    You are a darling, post or no post,:A


    We all love you

    Hi everyone :hello:

    I am so sorry but I have been typing my post all blimming night and I have lost it :mad: Thats the post and my head.

    So guys you will now be in receipt to the shortest Budgie post yet. To be honest I feel so frustrated and upset. I have trawled through history to no avail. So needless to say there was alot of personal messages which I cannot sadly get back or have the time to do again.

    Hey ho this is a real test on the alcohol front, good job I don't keep any in.

    But quickly before I go: Fluffy well done on exceeding your target :T Nadine I had done a lovely post for you sweetheart, sorry its gone but WELL DONE ON AN A IN YOUR COURSEWORK :j. Stroppy hugs and I hope you are better soon. Annie D you are doing fab and your brother is lucky to have you for support. Fay I did have a plan for your nasty supervisor that will have to be put on hold for now. (Lucky supervisor). Gc thanks for the kind words matey. 115k so pleased you have stayed af tonight. Wbf well done to you. Sparky and Glasgow Girl well done and one more to target. :j Hugs to everyone else, sorry for not mentioning you but its time for bed and at this moment in time I could do with a new head.

    Thanks for the support guys. Its Thursday tomorrow so sorry no updates but ...........................

    Asta la Vista I will be back on Friday with whip in hand :eek:

    God Bless
    A very down but not out Budgie

    Edit sorry Hi to cardboard and would you like to join in our target? Thats if I don't lose the list :-) Good luck and welcome xxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Headaches returned. I'm not dehydrated so i just can't understand it.

    Annie, I had a dreadful headache all day y'day after having two 5-HTPs on Monday night. I'm sure I must be allergic to them - wonder if anyone else has had headache with these??

    I went out tonight - no wine, and none when I came home either. :cool:

    Well done everybody for all your AFDs. BB - thank you so much, you really are a tremendous help. :T

    Oh dear, a sunny bank holiday, that really will be tempting ... I'll have to offer to give lifts to DDs at night ... Refuse to be tempted by the wine offers in the supermarkets, all those shiny bottles ...NO!!!

    Night night everybody zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
