    What do you mean about putting stuff in it?:rotfl:

    Shaun, you are a very encouraging person and have a tale to tell. Put in about your daily life...that's all any of us do ( lets face it you lot know more than my neighbours and they are nosey!)

    So you could also start a Southern Ireland tips board too..i bet there are lots of posters who if you join forces can get the best deals. Perhaps a thread on Oldstyle as well?:rolleyes:

    See born organiser me!:rotfl:

    Now for the title of your diary, it will have to be something Sheep based.

    Perhaps you can look through this for inspiration?

    I quite like no 1, personally:D

    Blimey, Shaun, those prices are horrendous. I didn't see the discussion about your own diary, but of course you have things to say! And bob's point about mse in Eire is a good'un.

    EDIT - ooh, I left the post for a while - and she's gone ahead on Old Style!

    Wow..that is expensive shaun.
    The O/S board is a godsend for helping with the shopping budget and to stretch things.
    Do you think you can manage a few days with your MIL BOB?...sorry to hear about the underpayment as well.Hope that gets sorted soon.
