    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:

    I don't know...but its scary. OH was furious. The teenage boys said they didn't realise it was dangerous...but surely no-one is really that stupid!?

    My advice about the new budget thingymyjig....don't go near it:eek: About to put my dog and my son on ebay.

    Thank god I don't drink!;)

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    But is that enough :eek:

    Well done though on not drinking :T I have realised I can't afford too either;)

    Just hoping it doesn't snow again, a taxi has just got stuck in our cul de sac, I have had to park my car on the road so as I can hopefully get out tomorrow? It was very close to my car, trying to reverse. so I sent a not to happy Mr Budgie out to see what was occuring. The taxi driver had to let some air out of his tyres and was moaning at my neighbour about the condition of the close?

    Well he doesn't have to tell me :eek:

    Btw hope JO is ok? Also 40sm? and IM hasn't been about too :confused:

    Oh and Miss P the mind boggles it really does. Hugs hunny (()) xxxxxxxxxx

    Ok off to watch Sinitta on Dancing on Ice, glad to see she's wearing more than a fig leaf :eek:

    Love n hugs
    Budgie xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    What's about as scary is the fact it's possible they didn't know the dangers :confused:

    If no-one tells you don't walk on the ice (& we all probably know someone that stupid) then how would you know otherwise...

    At least your OH had words & nothing bad happened, unlike some of the horrible news story that always follow this bad weather

  • ok - if I am allowed to tag along at this late stage I would really like to -I am on a mission this year with lots of things and one of those is to cut down on the old Vino.

    I'm not a huge binge drinker or anything but a bottle of wine (shared with hubby) every night is the norm - sometimes two at weekends and I know its too much. I'm overweight by 3 stone and I know the booze doesn't help.

    I have now had two AF days - and already feel better. I do miss it though - just need a few words of reassurance really so I don't lose my motivation

    Thanks for listening
