I've out a couple of times with a rather lovely bloke. With my usual cynicism and bitterness, I'm only half believing the stuff he says but it's nice to be complimented!

Ooh, tell us more! Anyway, from what we know of you, you're a lovely person and he may well be telling the truth!

Good luck with finding a new place... nothing's likely to happen this side of Christmas but I expect things will move on in the New Year and as you say, you've some time in hand.

Hi Everyone - sorry not been "talking" although have been following you all. Just been so manic and now as Christmas is fast approaching everything seems to be falling into place. Also have OH's 60th in January - very inconvenient date so soon after Christmas, immediately after New Year and on the day of the World Darts Championships final. Anyway trying to sort something out so we can celebrate that weekend and thereafter something every other month through the year so he feels that he has not been forgotten. Oh and all without him knowing ..... you know I think I have already told you this, so if I have apologies. Finish at work tomorrow evening until the 4th, although in 2nd job on the 29th and 30th all day. Am in the office mostly on my own to day and am waiting for my darling niece to come delivering and collecting pressies. Champers is on ice for the 30th hope the rest of you have been busy cooking. Thanks to those of you who physically made it happen for Mike and his boys and this time Happy, Miggy and I cordially invite you to join our virtual celebratory party - Happy & Miggy you do realise that means we can't get sloshed this time as we are the hosts and have to behave - and Mike will be with us!!!!:j:j:j:j:j:j:j OMG this is going to be so much fun. Right in case I don't get on again until the 30th wishing every single one of you the happiest of Christmas' and that 2011 will bring you everything you wish for. Already made my New Year's Resolution so heres to meeting you.......................................:T:T:T xxxxxxxx
Billie xxxxxxxxxx Cheers one and all :beer:

Thanks Miggy, we have decided to only panic when my flatmate gets back from travelling and we haven't found somewhere.... fingers crossed.

The last two guys I got involved said lovely things and then stopped talking to me! Maybe I really am a psycho? :cool:

Yes please do kick my bum and make me do my work!!

Billie, I hope you have a lovely christmas and your oh enjoys his birthday! x

Hi Buttie:beer:

It's Mike's Mob on the T Shirts and they can't change that :j

I wonder exactly how they will explain us, I overheard Jesthar trying to explain to a reporter who was looking a bit glassy eyed. Did anyone really tell the DIY SOS how it worked? We will see:eek:

Will look forward to the telephone call - how is the love life?

Janet:cool:

We explained about the anonymity thing to Nick Knowles and he really wasn't getting it at all. Love life has fallen off a cliff. This one lasted 6 months rather than the usual 5! Might try an 18 year old student next, preferably without a red living room ceiling

Careful making comments about people with a splash of red on the ceiling...

We mentioned the anonymity thing several times, especially when a certain person kept mentioning that everyone (almost) was in debt.

6 months instead of 5 is progress Butti Toy boys can be good, so I have heard

Just to join the others in saying thanks for your help and hard work and it was a wonderful experience to be allowed to take part in!! :beer:

Still no new home yet, but we don't have to start panicking until February really as my flatmate is away and I have somewhere to stay until 23rd Feb. Work has been manic, I am so tired and still not sleeping... can't wait for thursday night when I have my 3 days off. It's really very new so I'm not sure what is going to happen but I've out a couple of times with a rather lovely bloke. With my usual cynicism and bitterness, I'm only half believing the stuff he says but it's nice to be complimented!

Maty and SB, I have christmas cards here for you... maybe I should just take a photo and send them that way!

I can't remember if I said, as I've not been on here much recently and my concentration/memory is pants but I passed my exam with 72% so overall grade for the course is a Pass 2 which is the second highest mark Now very very behind on the current course though so need to sort that out.

Mike, I hope you are still warm and dry. Looking forward to the Premier of your tv appearance, I just hope I'm not working!

Glad you have somewhere to stay til Feb! Sorry you are so tired and not sleeping and hope you don't spend your three days off catching up.
:T To the lovely bloke, lets hope you are just being cynical and he means every word. After all we know that you are gorgeous

Sorry, forgot to email you my address will do it in a mo - but happy for you to take a photo and email that instead :cool:

Fab exam results, you really are clever :T Just need to catch up a bit on the current course and all will be fine

Fingers crossed you are off on the 30th, it won't be the same without you
