    Well, what can I say. No-one looks a bit like my mental image of them. My poor little brain is going to be very confused from now on!

    Orchid - for some reason I pictured you with a blonde curly bob. Fay, know what you look like (sort of), BHB I pictured to be ...ahem..a bit rounder than he is!

    Orchid....what did you think I looked like!?! Must admit to snorting like a pig sometimes when I laugh though!!

    The whip is in my hand ready to use on you all to whip you into shape! :p

    No quarelling over this mind you :D

    Just come back from Sainsbugs with 2 bottles of lemonade and 2 bottles of ginger beer. Thought about getting some AF lager for AF shandy then thought why would I spend £4+ on AF lager when I could have 4 huge bottles of ginger beer instead! decided against the lager in the end :p

    All set for AF June month in this household! Bring it on! ;)

    What's next then......glass of ginger beer outside trying not to burn while planting some herbs up!

    Day 1 AF 29 to go :D
    final unsecured debt to repay currently £8333
