    well... for two weeks, anyway :)

    I feel more than a bit bad, because if memory serves, I started this whole monthly score keeping some 18 months ago and I only ever scored the first month :o

    I will do it again, but August is a no no for me, I'm afraid. Very afraid......

    :DNeigh, neigh, and thrice neigh :D

    Hi All

    Well first things first, sorry not AFtoday, been very stressed at work and still trying to find a break in September Grrrr:mad:

    Have spoken to a few friends who have suggested Turkey (No Euro).

    Reason for my anger is OH went to France and spent over a thousand in 2 weeks. Im looking for 7 days at no more than 400 with maybe 150 to 200 spending money.

    Anyway enough of me.

    Sim... glad you are ok hun :)

    HB ...Agree about the humidity really need some rain or a break at least Hope you are ok ((hugs))

    Miss P .. Hope piglet is now behaving, funnily enough I have a similar problem its called soon to be ex OH!!



    Hope everyone else ok, see you tomorrow

    love NRA

    Pound is currently the best its been for ages against the Euro atm... don't dismiss it.......

    Not the level it was (was 1.40 odd, currently 1.20 ish, I think), but a lot better :)

    HTH

    Snap HB Im on the red as well, STBEX (soon to be ex) bought a lot back from France and as i had a bad day its my drink of choice:o


    YOU ARE NOT AN IDIOT OR UNATTRACTIVE.....:A we just feel that way when we go through break ups mainly because it is how others have made us feel so unsure of ourselves.

    Believe in yourself honey, I know its hard but it will get better... Even I live in hope and I have been through this road a number of times....and still am.

    Thinking of you big hugs ((((((hugs))))))

    love

    Really not sure where to go to be honest. Will be good and assess all avenues, who knows may stay in UK.
