    Hello,

    I am back home and the house is still AF. I had one of these angel and devil moments during the drive but so far agel won. So that is no 13 for me YM please. Oh and I haven't killed anybody either, actually feeling rather calm at the moment.

    Budgie, eek about the franchise, I got sucked in while on maternity leave and got burned pretty bad. Good thing you found out and can walk away. Agree that JC should have the power to pull advert out when it is completely misleading.

    Off to bed after news so night night,

    Marru

    HB It is always quiet on here at the weekend ;)
  • Well very busy day for me today so not been around.

    Been on allotment trying to pick vegetables!

    Another AF for me YM....13 please :j

    Starting to not think about drinking in the evening so that must be a move in the right direction. Saved £64 as well....starting to feel a bit ashamed that I actually spent (sorry wasted) so much money on wine :o:o

    Night all,

    Angiexx
  • Doing well Ange :T

    Makes you think about how much we waste on drink though :rolleyes:

    Thanks YM....in my case its about £1460 a year!!! no wonder I was broke!

    Thats only based on a cheap bottle...in reality I used to spend at least £6 ...I had expensive taste:D:D

    Anyway...thats a holiday (or 3)...something I hav`nt had for at least 5 years.

    Angiexx

    ps - I want a little smillie of sheep jumping a gate so I can count them to sleep!!:rolleyes::D grrr my insomnia is so bad tonight :eek::eek:& I thought I was doing better lately.:o
  • At least I am only awake because I am at work. Must be horrible to suffer from Insomnia.

    Gives me a chance to delve into other boards that I do not normally venture into ;)
  • LOL....I do find the studentphil threads hysterical in the Arms though....haha I have been known to make it almost through to the end & still be awake...almost:D:D:D:D

    Never worked nights...not much call for it in banking...yet!! :rotfl::rotfl:

    Still now I`m unemployed I may try a nightshift job.
  • Been doing nights for 15 years now so nearly used to them. Nice to be going to bed on a wet Monday morning when everyone is just getting up for work ;)
  • OH YM, I did nights when working for the railway (many moons ago), leaving the office walking past a platform full of London bound commuters at 6.00am on a Monday morning was a delight !

    Had an early night, in bed by 9.30, bright eyed bushy tailed this am. 12/30.
