    Bit like the rest of us - things have been better.

    Not the best of years so far. But it's 2012. End of the world in a few months apparently. And is a Rapture due this year? I've not been keeping up...

    Fabulous time doing what?

    I'm going to marry up a fast car with a leaden right foot. What could possibly go wrong?

    Sorry can't quote (on phone), a fabulous time in general, one of my cousins has just had a diagnosis of some awful syndrome so I'm more determined than ever to enjoy life and see the joy in every little thing.

    Oh? Are you a biker? When did you pass?


    That sounds fantastic. And only 5 years out of date too.

    I thought you enjoyed reading stuff like that...

    I've found out today that I have no idea how to multi-quote.

    I do enjoy reading stuff like that but not when I've still got about 1000 words to do on the analysis and need to sort out my investment - cost - George Osborne's gob vicious circle bit of the Literature Review....and have a maximum of 11 days and a minimum of about 7.

    I feel :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

    Which may be over reacting a tad.
    Can't remember how to spell either.

    Well that worked reasonably - just you didn't put anything inbetween.
