    kazwookie - I think Simon was a real coward. He has been slating those twins for weeks and now when he could get rid of them he doesn't. Personally I think it is all because he knows that the press are giving him loads of airtime because of the twins and he is worried about losing all that free publicity. Even I knew that if it went to a public vote it would be the twins that stayed. Ok, rant over.
    Yeah, that's what I think too. DH thinks he's getting rid of the competition so his boys can win. Simon has lost any integrity he might have had. I don't want to watch X-Factor anymore, but I know I will end up watching it cos DH will keep on watching it.


    Dreamy glad it’s going so well with the blind date man!

    Welcome back Lemanie

    Hope you are better soon Thriftyscotslass

    This morning I went out first thing and got my meds, as I have to have them at breakfast time. I was very brave and while my prescription was being made up I walked up to the cash point and checked my bank balance, and then went and got a top up voucher for my phone, as I spent the weekend trying to top my mob up but their system was playing up. V frustrating. Then last night I lost my mobile, and can't find it still. Have looked everywhere! And can't ring it to find it cos it's turned itself off. Where is it???? :mad:

    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
