DH who only saw the highlights agrees, he loves your graphics and trusts the chainsaw is for the ref!! :rotfl: Promises we won't tell!:D

It was for all of them I was a tad agro from the dogs next door when I typed that. I had murder in my heart. :rolleyes: But now it's just for the referee. I've cooled down considerably and the caffiene has started to kick in.

Back from a cracking opera/dance show and about to tuck into a yellow-stickered quattro formaggi pizza :drool: Housemate is downstairs listing CDs on Amazon and listening to loud Beethoven while he does it to "test them out" :rolleyes: I wouldn't mind if he was listening to whole movements of symphonies but he keeps playing little bits of one and then moving onto a different piece just when my ear has got used to the one that was on before :rolleyes:

AussieLass - best friend is Australian as you know, and he and an Aussie friend have decided that they now have to pick another team to follow through the championship - preferably one that plays all its matches at times which are easy to talk ones way out of the office for

cha97michelle - don't worry, I won't be burning out Am off on Wednesday to catch up with some other OldStylers (clue: the ones I had such a fab time with on Blackpool Pleasure Beach ) so there will be plenty of leisurely shopping, pubbing and wine-drinking going on

RacyRed - yes, I was born in Durham City and spent most of my childhood and all of my teens there - which school did you go to in Chester-le-Street? I know Park View a bit because it had a decent hall/auditorium and we used to do the odd choir concert there (with Durham County Youth Choir, also my mum used to be the accompanist for Chester-le-Street Civic Choir (I used to page-turn for her when I was about 13/14) and they performed there once or twice too.

catowen - glad you had a fab time and didn't get held back too much by medical matters.

Am not sleepy AT ALL so might stay up quite late getting things done until I'm worn out It's lovely knowing I don't need to be up in the morning!

That's a good idea BRzl. I will check out the team who have the hottest bods:D seeing as I can't be patriotic anymore.

I best go, I've wasted a whole hour on here. It's now 8.50am and I haven't done a thing except feed myself & the dogs.

Enjoy your sleep in. Byeeeeeeeeee

Hullo all!!! :hello:

Haven't been around for a while as I normally post from work and the formatting is playing silly bu99ers!!! Highly annoying!! Not sure why either, and my friend the IT guru isn't sure either so must be something wrong!:p when it was playing up before if I just refreshed a few times it worked for a bit but now not doing it at all:rolleyes: I miss being part of Old Style

I did my flylady bit over the weekend and must say that I am very impressed with myself!! Few bits still need doing but generally speaking am very chuffed!:j

Just got in from work and just got a loaf of bread out of the breadmaker :drool: yummy!! I've got the hang of this bread making lark and am soooooo chuffed with myself!! And a right bargain too, from £50 to £13.49! Does that count as PIN money savings Queenie??:D

I have been lurking every day and reading all your news, ((((((hugs)))))) to everyone that needs them and everyone else! Nice to get hugs!!

There's loads going on at the moment, moving house, babies, weddings!! All go here!!!

Anyway peeps, time for me to hit the sack methinks!! Wanted to be at work at 8.30am this morning but ended up sleeping through alarm and waking up and 8.24am!:eek: Said a few "f" words!!:rotfl: Going to set two alarms in the morning!:p

Take care all, and chat soon xx

A few of those Brazilian bods aren't too bad Aussie;)

I tried to stay up and watch the game, but was falling asleep ten minutes into it, so I told hubby to wake me up if we win. Woke this morning to a feeling of dread, trying to remember if he woke me or not. Alas, not to be... yep we was robbed!

He is also snoring away on the couch, was supposed to go to work 2 hours ago:eek:

**purpleprincess**

Let me guess... format buttons don't work, and no matter how many paragraph breaks you put in, your whole post comes out as one long paragraph?

Yeah, me and VickyA have both found the same thing when posting from work. I presume it is something to do with the fact that at work you don't have the freedom to control your internet settings ... but I don't actually know which internet setting it is that's causing the problem. The core issue is definitely with MSE, since the recent major upgrade, as I haven't had trouble with other sites. I have tried deleting all my cookies, my history etc, but it still doesn't work.

Maybe somebody "up there" is trying to tell us we shouldn't be wasting company time

Or maybe MSE's just screwed
