    Caught the last half of horizon programme and thought I would never in a million years take a pill that would give me those effects so why do I hit the bottle? I think the answer is because it is socially acceptable,

    It's awful to say but I would take a pill that gave me the same effect as booze, I would probably lose some weight!:o

    I might watch that programme on iPlayer tonight.

    :mad:

    Is anyone else watching the England game?

    As if it's not bad enough that we have a national anthem with no proper introduction that no-one can ever sing it from the start, they also muck up the sound so the whole thing sounded like it was being played underwater! :mad:

    I'm not hugely nationalistic but if a thing is to be done then it should be done properly

    *huge sigh*

    Rant over :D

    Am so glad someone asked, I thought it was some sort of strange hot dog thing :rotfl::rotfl:

    Am going to be af tonight yay, have really struggled this evening but now looking forward to my hot choc (agree about the price of the hot choc chunk Fay :eek: and have to say I prefer the galaxy one that I make with water that was only £1.27 in Morrisons at the moment)

    Glad to hear Jo is ok and agree with the comments about Christmas,I like to be organised but don't like to see all the stuff up yet...and also am already fed up with all the advertising aimed at the kids!

    Off to try to work iplayer to watch that programme...

    Hugs to all x
