    Got invoice through from factors today and to my absolute horror at the bottom it said 'Outstanding balance' £210, bringing total bill to £400 odd. I nearly threw up. I was convinced I had paid the bill using their online facility back in Feb when the bill came out... But then I was extremely pregnant at the time and my brain wasn't firing on all cylinders so I realised with a very sick feeling I may have suffered a baby brain moment and not actually done it. :eek:

    However I trawled my online banking and found the payment. Have phoned factors and sorted it out.

    Excuse me while I collapse on the sofa and weep with relief.

    Maz, Big G ( or S or C or AH?) has to realise that Erin will make her OWN decisions.........she has to come first.

    It's been a neverending stream of gentlemen callers! lol!

    chat with runnerman on msn went from "i think you're great, i really do, in fact i probably am in love with you".... to "you're one screwed up woman. You're not ready for a relationship"

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Extra points to Einstein for the last comment!



    anyways, moving on, there is a friends annual BBQ tomorrow..... and a long term "if i were single i'd have had you by now" bloke will be there.... he made me an offer one night when i worked in the pub (2 years ago now) and i (foolishly!) said i'd love to but come back when you're sober and ask me, i wouldn't say no but not when you're drunk.

    Anyway, when he was sober he came back and apologised, said he did kinda mean it, he did fancy me but not when i was with big g... i guess he valued his knee caps!

    anyway, enter stage left Sexy new skinny maz at tomorrows BBQ and Bonnie Ronnie will not stand a chance.... even my mum said "time to put that one to bed once and for all at this BBQ" and that was my mum speaking!

    I've waited a long time for this!!!

    I know, i'm incorrgiable! but this is a long term ambition!

    Hmm good move escaping from the runnerman methinks - it seems the flashy car was compensating for many things! :eek:

    Have lots of fun tonight ;)

    Of course it is.. erm, you've got olive trees? :)

    I've been sitting here wondering why I could smell potato salad so strongly but that would be because I had left the not-quite-empty container sitting on my desk next to me :o

    Just three, in big pots. One has multi coloured lights in it, which look great at night.
    Hopefully may get some fruit this year as they had loads of blossom and its held on over the pollenation time. Fingers crossed.

    DS has enormous ones at the Garden Centre he works at...up to £2000 each:eek:....but I would love some.....Rather have the villa to go with 100 or so though:D

    Aww nice.. I had a little tiny one but it had to be left behind when I moved a few years ago, would love room for the big ones... and fruit trees.. and chickens... (see newly acquired Good Life avatar for current state of mind!)
