    My house is now on street view as well. Just trying to work out when it was taken - some time in the summer because our extension is complete, our hanging baskets are up and the car over the road is the new one belonging to our neighbours. So I guess probably some time between mid June and mid Sept.
    Having gone round our town, they must have spent quite some time taking the pictures - my car is at one location where I finished work in mid July and yet down in the town centre, they are advertising fireworks!

    Oooh, does anyone know any decent exercise DVDs. I have the Charlie Brooks one and a Rosemary Conely one (both from Cash Convertor, both 99p) but I like variety.

    Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! Great news Bunny!

    See the power of the MSE thoughts, we got Bookie a job and now you, it'll be Luc next!

    I'd never heard/thought of kiwis with savoury food.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Elfen-I am suitably impressed with your working outness. Well done babe, no wonder the weight is falling off!

    So, job starts in 2 weeks, which means I get my holiday paid for (thank god, 3 weeks without wages was SCARY!) The money isnt as much as I hoped but still more than I was on by £2k plus the commission is BRILLIANT. It's also way closer to home (by about 7 miles) so much less petrol, my neighbour will be my collegue (sp) so we can car pool so MUCH less petrol AND 2 days more holiday and Xmas and weekends OFF! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO!!!

    This also means I can spend the next 2 weeks getting Cambridge started, list my life on eBay and get ready for Florida.

    I am soo sooooo sooooooooooo happy! And just had it confirmed my best frind is coming to Florida for 2 days to see me as well, honestly, I am so happy I could CRY. And so RELIEVED!

    Thanks everyone for standing by and offering moral support, you guys mean the world to me.

    OH-also, one of my kind friends has posted me $2 US. I know who you are....you cant hide from MEEEEEEE! Lol
