    Oh and sorry forgot to say thankyou for the jokes :D I am not very good but:

    "What do you call a snowman in a desert? A puddle" my niece told me that one when she was very young, so its a special one.

    Guess I will not give up the day job though :rotfl:

    Hoe hoe indeed :D

    Thanks Fay, I'll try and find a bit of the garden to put 8 plants in that far apart you recommended. Might have to try some netting (leave it now!) as have a pair of pigies nesting close by and perch on my windowsill or in the trees overhanging the garden!

    Wild night for me to with some HM rice pud and a cup of tea. woohoo1.gifIt's Friday!! No need for alcohol at all and no desire for it let alone a mere need. Looking forward to getting tucked up in bed for an early night waching TV.

    Feel more positive now, pushing the lack of money thoughts away for a while to cheer up and gardening really helps me clear my mind of these thoughts

    Evening all!

    Wine bells have been lightly tinkling but I think out of habit cos it's Friday...haven't seriously wanted any. Been offered 2 glasses tonight by different people & didn't even have a wobble (aaargh, what's happening to me? I've turned into someone I don't know!).

    The next 2 nights will not be af which is planned. Tomorrow the wine will be flowing hugely & no doubt I'll go with the flow, but I have deffo had a bit of an "attitude shift", in that we're leaving at 3 tomorrow for a 2 hour drive, OH is driving & usually I would automatically turn up at his house an hour or so before leaving so I can shove down anything up to a bottle before setting off, but I really don't want to (aaargh, what's happening to me? I've turned into someone I don't know!).

    Hope it lasts!

    This morning the recycling was being collected as we left (we get one black box & they collect paper/glass/tin) & DD said, "oh Mum! those people have put paper in their wine bottle box!"
    Ahem, explanations followed.......(for once all our stuff was in the box, no satellite bags of paper...)

    115K hope your afd going well, sounds like a good plan!

    Anyways, 5 afds for me pls 40sm.

    !!!! have now exceeded May total, & I think April's too, (aaargh, what's happening to me? I've turned into someone I don't know!).

    FUAS love the woohoo woowoo jumpie! Glad you're feeling more positive.

    Miss P hope you're OKafter your bad night, & everyone else of course!

    Have a good evening all, see ya later x

    Dear Lurky, Hmmmm Budgie feels you have something to say but for some reason are holding back? I thought you were a new age guy who doesn't mind talking about his feelings? I wear my heart on my sleeve and I am pretty open, go on do the post, we can all take it on the chin. Kinda hold your nose and then jump into the pool, I am sure Bhb will oblige if you need to locate one. What with you and the mystery post, Eselt with the dream, I shall not rest until I have found out about that one too ;) Hope you are ok mate? Hugs and go on do the post, Budgie is laying down the dare? ARE YOU MAN ENOUGH TO TAKE THE DARE? ;) I shall wait and see? Oh and one last thing? Your: "GO FIGURE" comment? My Ds always says that too ..................Hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    pm on its way.....



    Not AF tonight.... is that why this thread has gone all 'nudge nudge'? :confused::confused: I can't make head nor tail of most of it......



    Oh if we're doing bad jokes..... and inappropriate ones, probably :rolleyes:

    Did you hear about the dyslexic alcoholic? Choked to death on his own Vimto..... I'll get me coat......

    :DNeigh, neigh, and thrice neigh :D
