    Happy New Year Hypno & everyone!

    I would like to wish everyone health, wealth and happiness for the forthcoming year but as a minimum I hope that we can all stay in control of our affairs with no nasty surprises to knock us of course.

    Well put, Helen!

    It is quite refreshing to see that there is little talk of "New Years Resolutions" on this board today - could it be that we have all learned not to set ourselves up for failure, and instead are setting ourselves ongoing and renewable goals throughout the year, which can only be a good thing!

    Welcome aboard, Sarah, and happy new year to you too!

    I suppose I had better go and get washed and dressed, before 2011 arrives........:rolleyes:

    DS and OH are embarking on a Wii male bonding FIFA10 session.......so perhaps an ideal time for me to go and declutter a cupboard :rolleyes:

    Yep, renewable, ongoing and free to try a different method if the original is less effective!
    On the old diary, I said I'd look at getting a website set up: I saw very little point in doing it myself as I found a very good deal from someone that can do the whole kit and caboodle and has a good deal on hosting :D
    Spending money, when I could have done it myself, doesn't seem very MSE. However, if I work out how long it would take me to start to build the site from scratch with a programme that I don't know, it's time that could be spent on other things that I do well (and quickly) that make the money to pay the expert.

    All good wishes to all on this thread, sounds like everybody's raring to go, even if it's only to:beer:
    I believe there are onion bhajis being made in our kitchen, (then garlic and chilli bhajis:eek:) so will go and close some doors so the whole flat doesn't smell of fried food.

    Happy 2010!:D well, apart from Dr Who tonight... tissues at the ready!

    Just heard on the virgin games chat room that BB's min withdrawl has gone up to £50, not had any emails about it though, but it could change assessments of if it's worth doing, if the chat room people are correct. But as I said I've no emails etc myself about it, so it might just be a rumour.
