    :wave::wave::wave:

    I'm back! And it was lovely, if very emotional at times because of all the family trauma over the last 18 months. The rellies came along as we arranged and we had a fantastic time with them, they gave us pointers on where the locals go up that way: its so good up there that even tho they live just on the north of Norwich, they rent a caravan up on the north Norfolk coast for a few days every so often - and its not cos they're poor like wot us lot are - just this year, they've been to Jordan, the US and Norway - tells you how good the north Norfolk coast is!

    Delia's was brilliant - amuse-bouches that were hysterical :D, a four nut chocolate brownie that I would cheerfully have committed murder for :D:D and the weirdest car park ever for a posh restaurant, as its actually in the Norwich FC stadium :footie::footie::footie: so you use the football parking.

    Drove back with my sister most of the way, instead of taking the train - I'd never been across the Dartford Bridge :o so I was absolutely entranced at the views, really spectacular.

    I managed to unpack completely and do two loads of washing last night, though I'm a bit confused at the moment because I can't get a phone signal at all from the house :question: :eek: :question: :eek: :question: :eek: tho my cable broadband is fortunately absolutely fine.

    Done my scratchies since I got in, both days so far, and I decided to play a bingo game on each, as its been a while, and I notice I just won £15, tyvm :D

    Lots of things to do today, but don't really want to make a list yet - off for another cuppa tea with a mooch around the forums :T

    Hiya! I was just reading through your thread - took me ages, there were so many things I followed up on :) and I love flower pig :)

    I *was* going to go get my hair cut, first time in about 8 months, but I've left it a bit late for my town - I never go in on Saturday afternoons, its horrible .... okay, Tuesday it is, I'm not working till 5, I have plenty of time :dance::easter: Just thought I'd channel Sean there for a moment :D




    EDITED - hi DT! Crosspost .... now I'm not going into town, time for another cuppa coffee and to look at your thread too....

    Hiya! Yes, it was - and yes, you do :) Thanks for your offer on the previous page to contact *during* the hol - fortunately for me, my sister is a compagnera, sort of thing, as well as a sister, so all was well.

    I'm not so organised today! Must stop sitting at the computer trying to find excuses not to do anything .....

    Glad you had a good break. It's nice to catch up with people isn't it.

    :hello: Sadly, that was because I closed the tab, not the computer :o:o:o gone bingo have been wittering at me for ages, so I finally logged in, and have £19 with them, and £16-odd bingo bucks, but they want a deposit and 4 x wager before I can withdraw :rotfl:I'm playing through a sample game, cos I was lucky last month (and this morning, come to that :o) so we'll see. Not been a very productive day, this :o I was tired out by that holiday :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    It wouldn't even let me buy bingo tickets, lol - and I'd just input my real name and address. So I edited the profile and gave them fictional details instead :D Now to class them as spam.........
