    Hi Cagne, glad you had a good time!
    Munchki, thanks, I'm going to be having a good look through the DFW boards later...if not asleep...
    Hi Tryinghard, I hate hospitals too, I go stiff if people have to look at me for something. Childbirth was not good; the pain I could handle but I wanted to deck the midwife! Hope it goes OK, big hugs.
    Em, can't think of anything English....but what about snail gel? Hehehe! Get Mabel to make you a merkin with a Union Jack on...how scared would they be...eek.
    Toots, I don't get it, what's the fly in the ointment?
    I can tick off 'get stuff together for tax Credits form', did it when the girls were napping :) xx
    I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick @ss.... and I'm all out of bubblegum.

    I read the first page but I'm not quite understanting what dribbling is? Can anyone give me a brief outline please as if it looks like something I could do to get a bit of extra money I might well be intersted. Thanks in advance. :)

    I have all John Grisham's Yukki, so if you want more give me a shout. Or at least I think I still do..... I have more books than I care to mention and have a hard time parting with them, but in this pokey place I just don't have the space so I had a clear out a couple of years ago and donated a lot to the local library and/or freecycled some. I'll have a look and see if I still have them - enjoyed them but will not reread, unlike many of my precious bookshelf squatters!

    Munchki gave me a Diana Gabaldon to read and despite slight misgivings on my part, I started it on the train and couldn't put it down! So think I may well have to look into Katherine Kurtz! Like I need an excuse for more books :rotfl:

    Lol Mabel, they must be enjoying your chat! So glad you're having fun with them and now able to add them in to your dinner plans!

    I've found another one under the bed but if I enjoy that one just as much then I'll give you a shout. I've got boxes under my bed so may be something you would like in return.

    think i will try and save it rather than make it by getting stuff for free or recycling instead of buying it
