  • Grand, thank you. What about toes? I've read some bits about toes. It sounds like your business has been doing very well, I'm sure you'll get to your 30k target, you've shifted a good chunk this year already.

    Of course, HWG, you wouldn't buy it...............because you are a MSE...............you would get it from the library!!!

    Thank you so much for even saying that, it was very kind of you! xx:)

    Toes are healing - toe nails still look gruesome and I am glad we are coming out of 'flip flop' season or else I would look stranger than usual with boots on. :D But truly could not bear for world to see my little piggies just now! Plus if some !!!!!! stood on them, WW III could start instantly!

    Yeah and you two (HWG AND WOO) are such lightweights............NOT

    One drives CC company crazy with mutiple small but significant deposits and is living proof of the saying 'look after the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves'

    The other is the energy bunny and finds lots of money by ebaying/amazoning and budgeting at a level previously unknown to mankind

    I am in awe :)
