    Hi all

    CL glad you enjoyed your holiday.

    I quite like the mix of people in there, that Paddy never got up off his chair when they all came in. Surprised some of the women didn't fall over in those shoes. Thought Kerry looked really good, felt sorry for her when she got that task after all her problems with that Good Morning interview.

    I think that Jedward will drive everyone crazy.

    Yep - I can add that FE doesnt bite :) (Much! ;) )
    Same here if any of you are ever in Sheffield/Derby/Nottingham/or anywhere local - you must let me know!

    ETA - talking of cities can anybody recommend a really nice place to take my OH for the day/weekend to go xmas shopping? Normally I always fancy going to London, but i think I fancy somewhere new this year :)
  • NG, I nearly said (much) myself!!
    I think Edinburgh does Christmas markets. Not sure though. They do have Christmas stalls in Liverpool which are good (hog roast and crackling...mmmmm!)

    Well, more eBaying for me today. :)

    Hi all

    Hope those of you who are BB addicts are enjoying it. I think that Paddy fits in. I couldn't be 5 mins in a room with Jedward.

    Any of you read about that terrible event in Turkey?

    NG have you ever considered on going on an European Christmas market trip? I've heard they are good.

    I have just been reading about it, what a dreadful thing to have happened. That poor girl, she must be feeling so distraught. The article I read said that the killer was her boyfriend - but the father said there was something not quite right about her relationship with him. For goodness sake, she was only 15!

    Hi all

    NGlady, board money seems enough.

    I never go to any markets. If it's in the evenings I wouldn't be going in any case as the buses are peculiar where I live after a certain time.
