    Hi Primula thanks for the post. I too find myself spending far too much time on Farmville on FB :o although I have recently cut down considerably on how much time I spend on there. It's a very addictive game.

    Had a nice quiet evening last night, watched the football, BB and then went off to bed. Have only just got up although I have been awake since aboout 6:45 when my DD blundered into my room.

    I have my two nieces over today to play with my DD so whilst they are busy I am going to get some more bits on Ebay :D

    Hi Doodledo - I'm lucky in a way, because when friends of mine were going over to farmville, I was still too far in debt to consider it, and I really don't want to find *another* way of playing online :) Hope you and your dd have a good time today.

    KC - I am at that point now with FV where I am bored but I wanna finish it......how sad does that sound.

    Not sure if I have you on my FB or not, don't think I do. If you PM me your name I'll add you if you want :D

    BB is ok so far nothing to get that excited about. I used to love it but now I am more just watching it if there is nothing else on.

    Just starting my Ebay. God I need some extra cash. I go on hols in 6 weeks and have no clothes, no spending money and need to get DD passport renewed :(

    God don't you just hate Mondays. They always seem really long and depressing after a nice weekend.

    Had an interesting chat with my boss at work. They have offered me another job to try and keep me at work, but it's a lot less money than my new job and it is a position I am not really interested in, so had a thanks but no thanks moment.

    The weird thing is after 10 years I never thought I would be in this position where I want to leave. Strange but it just feels the right decision.

    Got a few more bits on Ebay and am just putting a few more bits on now while I catch up with some bits of TV I have on my Sky plus.

    Nice that they want you to stay, but you have to do what you feel is best!
