    Probably a rest as, if you have a few days out (like over Xmas) , it breaks the habit.

    I find this board hard work at the mo too.

    So it's not just me, then? I've been spending more time over on Greenfingered.

    I suppose it just doesn't matter as much to me now, which way prices go. I'm still a bear on behalf of my kids, but it seems likely I'll be posting more on forums away from MSE which cover other interests. ATM I just lurk, working out what they are like.

    Many lack humour.:(

    I think thats it for me now too, I don't care anymore- spent a while in deluded hope that I might be able to buy somewhere sometime soon, but I finally gave up on that. Over the last few months I've spent half my pitiful savings on this (ha) place now anyway :o

    ETA: Love the wurzels. Worst hangover I ever had though- pints and pints and pints of cheddar valley at a wurzel gig- its the done thing init! :confused:_pale_

    ....do not contain one nourishing ingredient worth putting into your body. If you only have Jaffa Cakes when Armaggedon comes, you will starve to death.
