    Well done on the Ewok Lurks :T

    From me too Dear Captain Lurky :T:T:T thats the way to do it ..............
    Hope you are ok matey? Hugs to you and your lovely family. (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Totally off topic for a moment: has anyone done Martins Budget Brain calculator? It includes everything and is more indepth than the SOA one.

    According to it, I can't afford to live this year :eek:

    Its an eye opener. (I think the dog has to go :rotfl:Ok perhaps not as we are quite attached and he is 12 this year).

    Scurries off to see what can be tweeked ;)

    I only started doing a decent Spending Diary at the beginning of November so I've pencilled in a proper budget review at the end of this month when I have 3 months worth of figures to work with :)

    I don't have a dog tho, so don't know what I'll do if I can't afford things :D

    I didn't invite the pesky beggars round in the first place! :p

    They're like cheap guests at a party; bring nothing, eat all the buffet & steal the good wine as they leave!

    Evening all


    Marru - so glad something good came out of this. All sounds very positive.

    PBT - I'm gonna split on ya on the weight loss thread :p (not really...I've...ahem..had a few fairy cakes myself today:o)

    We took Piglet sledging again this afternoon down by the local lake. I was absolutely horrified to see people walking out on the frozen lake! Do people not watch the news, or have any common sense for that matter? OH decided to go and speak to them when he saw some teenage lads leading a little boy, no older than 3, out onto the ice. They did have the sense to come back onto solid ground but an older man, old enough to know better - must have been at least 40!, went out further. Absolute idiots.

    It sort of put a downer on the trip so we came home and had a snowball fight instead. Great fun!:D

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    And Miss P, that's dreadful - why are some people quite so wilfully stupid?*

    *I guess that could be seen as somewhat ironic on this thread :rolleyes:
