    I'm not going either - have to take my new budget seriously and I just can't afford it.

    It's a loooong way too. :o

    I don't know Spuyd-I'm staying with a friend-kind of combining the meet with a weekend seeing a friend kind of thing so to be honest, not sure how much time we will be at the actual 'meet'. So much to see and do, the German Fair etc.

    I know, sounds lovely. It's a shame - payday was more than expected because of recent overtime, so the funds are there. No-one will tell me where to book. Dont want to stay somewhere on my own :rolleyes:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
    Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:

    Oooh, I think I got a kind of tax rebate thingy in my salary this month. My tax was a minus amount on the deductions side (so a credit....I think).

    Do they usually do that?

    Just had to p!ss off dad and sister. I'm supposed to be driving her to Skegness on monday night but one of my headlamps isn't working. I called the garage this morning and they were supposed to phone back but didn't. I don't really want 7 hours of driving along country roads in the dark with only one headlamp (not to mention it's illegal), but neither of my alternative suggestions were acceptable to sister. She 'can't get her head around it'. Oh well, it's her problem.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    What there to get your head around? You're not driving her to Skeggy.

    Simples.
