    to accept the things I cannot change;
    courage to change the things I can;

    Hey peeps, I've been meaning to say this for ages; I can't take on scoring next month as I'll be away from my laptop for almost half the month & it'd be way too difficult (& costly :eek:) for me to do it off my phone :o

    However I am prepared to take on the Scary January Scoring Challenge* *gulp* :D

    *I'll think up a better title later ;)

    Totally off topic (like I care :rolleyes:), but...

    I want to buy a Freeview + box for my mum for crimbo, one that you can record on. Has anyone got one of these or know where the best place to buy one is and the prices?

    Saw an offer of a free digibox with littlewoods (+15 off your first order of25 or more)... dunno if it's what you're after, but might be worth a look :confused:

    :DNeigh, neigh, and thrice neigh :D
