    It is knickerless :) Commandos used to not wear boxers to keep their bits dry (well drier) (ie swinging in the wind).... or is that too much information ? :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    You get 1, 2 or 3 dvds at once, and you have to have watched all six and sent them before your trial ends (I had 21 days) or you get charged. But it is possible, especially if you've got a DVD drive on your puter, just think of the amount of time you spend on here! (Not you personally, just 'you' lol)

    I just realised I posted the same thing twice so apologies for that, I'm just so chuffed at myself :)

    well done on the cinema tickets btw :T

    Havnt got a dvd drive on my computer unfortunatly, but actually you are right about the amount of time i spend on here!!!!!!:rotfl:

    Morning all

    Snowy I can't believe that I was thinking about the christmas cake this morning too!

    annie, get yourself back to bed love and make the most of not having to look after the kids.

    PP I hope you are feeling a little better today?

    Cat, is the Barbie thing Nationwide? My DD adores Barbie!

    Hugs to everyone else who needs one, I can't remember who said what now.

    I told DH about the Kenwood Chef when he came home from work, he thought I got a really good deal :D I softened the blow a little by steering him towards the Play.Com bank holiday sale and letting him buy Quantum Leap :D I also told him that I'd bought two of the River Cottage series and he was impressed with how cheap they were too :D

    The hand feels loads better, I am even typing with it this morning so I am going to attempt some baking this afternoon.

    Morning all

    Been up a while but not awake:p
    Nightmare yesterday evening, my horse has damaged his leg in the field and I had a call saying I think he needs the vet as it's become infected:eek:
    Had to drive an hour to the vets house to get some antibiotics so fingers crossed it will heal soon.
    OH is off to football today and I'm staying in cleaning, highlighting my hair, and on here I expect:D
    I will call my sister in Oz in a while to see how she is.
    Got a friend coming round tonight and I am taking her out for a good night out as she has had a bad time of it lately bringing up 5 children at the age of 31 on her own:eek: :eek:
    Hope everyone is well?

    thank you penny for going to that trouble, she must be a fair age now, and all that work on the farm on her own too, i imagine she was lucky in a way the tv got involved, as she got to travel abroad, it was sad seeing her leave the farm, she stopped and looked back and said, whatever i am, wherever i am, this is me

    Good Morning All,

    I'm working my way through the thread but I'm still intrigued by AussieLass' pineapple fruit cake. AussieLass I've PM'd you for the recipe...it sounds lovely.

    I've had a week off this week and really don't know where it's gone :confused: . Have been checking the board out for recipes though and had my first trip to Lidl (it's not really that local but since I was passing that way...) a couple of days ago.

    Anyway - back to read what the rest of you have to say...Hope you all have a good day.
