    Guess Jamie/Delia aka Dear Lurky is down for the mince pie making this year? Well lets just see if he can deliver, can he walk the walk or does he just talk the talk :rotfl:

    Not only can I walk the walk AND talk the talk, I can dance the dance too ;) :rotfl:

    Speaking of christmas....I'm trying to build up a box of duplo bricks for Piglet for Christmas. I've been bidding on various stuff on ebay (its SO expensive to buy new). Last night I was bidding on some bricks and they kept going up and up. Was SO determined to have them I went over my budget...and I won them ...yay!! Rang my mum to tell her (as she was going to look for some for me too) only to find it was HER I was bidding against!! How stupid are we!?!?!:rotfl::rotfl:Never mind, it wasn't a huge amount and at least I have them. I will check next time though!

    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    could only happen to you, Miss P......


    IM- Elf Bowling? I shouldn't ask...... VERY well done on the 10 weeks

    HB - hope you're feeling better :) (the 'ooops' smiley worked btw ;))


    I've finally been paid (yayy), my nearly last wages (one more to go - boo), so I can go Christmas shopping :D:D :j

    Hope we're all ok today.

    :DNeigh, neigh, and thrice neigh :D

    HB, sorry you're no better. I just KNOW I've got a cold coming And I keep telling myself it'll only be a cold 'cos you can't catch Bearflu from a computer, can you?? I've got loads on for the next few days and feeling ill is just what I don't need. I'll keep up the paracetamol and fingers crossed. Hopefully you'll feel a bit stronger tomorrow. Glad you still feel up to posting.

    :eek:

    Maybe it's a mutating virus?

    :eek:

    :rotfl:

    Hope you're feeling better soon. I don't feel as manky today but I'm not rushing out anywhere just yet

    Jo, you're brilliant :T

    Really sorry to anyone waiting on the Bank Charges ruling. I guess there's going to be more to it than first meets the eye but it's still a kick in the teeth.

    Have had a nosy at a couple of other forums & they're already getting pretty heated about it so I'm staying out of it fear.gif
