    I went to see the film Avatar yesterday, in 3D. It is very, very clever and a lovely film but just too long for me. We had to buy the 3D glasses so in all it cost £18 :eek: Then we had a meal out which cost £30, so quite an expensive end to 2009!!

    I have been looking at the flylady thread and thought I would give it a go, but when I walked out of my living room and into my kitchen it was so cold out there, I quickly came back in here to the warm and have been sat in front of the computer ever since. In fact that is mostly what I have done for the last two weeks! All the little jobs I was going to do during this holiday are still waiting to be done. Oh dear

    Has given up on the studying for today - it was bring a small lump seeing how people in Mexico live.
