    :eek: Isn't that near Dover?!


    My damn computer is dying and the warranty is nearly up... grrr :mad:

    My DD's schools are in Dover - there's no public transport running and most of the roads (being hills) are closed. Still snowing heavily....just took DD2 sledging and it was over my knees in places - no roads have been gritted and the snowplough got stuck on the ice!!

    All good fun.

    Claire - would a double sheet fit? It was minus 1.5 degrees when I drove to work this morning. Not sure what it will be like in Carephilly though. (Insert confused smile!)

    Today is going to be the longest day ever at work I feel.

    It was freezing out :(

    will try the double sheet

    Hey peeps. Another uni day today so I'm sat in the LRC (library of computers!) and just tryign to find the calorie content of celery

    Elfen,
    I thought the calorie content of celery (unless you are doing a scientific experiment) was about -3 because it takes more calories to digest than are in it.
