    :O I am now very gobsmacked. Pint called me up to the computer for some reason (I'm skiving about on the uni lappy whilst he's up there, just had dinner) and he's in the process of booking a hotel in Bournemouth, so he can take me away for the weekend cos I've been so down recently. How lovely is he!?!?!?

    Hi Beanie.
    I know I'm not really so useless but I just wanted to reply and tell him that he was missing something quite useful actually.
    Don't think I get STV.

    It's on all ITV regions I think :D

    I did it!! I finished the painting!!! :j :j :j :j


    (Well, I still have glossing to do, but I can go and order my new carpet now!! :D

    I know I have moaned about it, whinged about it and waffled about it, but this is the biggest thing I've done as a single girl, and it's given all 3 of us a nice, decent, calm room of our own, and means I don't need to go and buy a 3 bed house that I can't really afford, so it feels huge!

    Just shows you don't need a man! You are perfectly capeable by yourself and can afford to sit back and be choosey!

  • My internet's on a go slow tonight. It probably isn't helping that I'm loading two huge Youtube videos and trying to do a download on BBC iPlayer at the same time. I might actually do a mind map for my dissertation, I'm that bored. :D
