    I got a prize!!!!!!!! :j Thank you Spoon and thank you so much to everyone for all the congrats, not to mention all the NSD encouragement over the last month or two - it has definitely helped me get debt free because it was with all the extra money I had saved this month through my NSDs that meant I had the extra to pay off my Cap 1 card entirely from "last month's" money. Not sure if that makes sense anywhere other than in my head! :o

    I was wondering *looks at ground and scuffs foot* could I come along today on the outing? I've never been to Bucks House or Brighton, or on BigMumma's lilo....I've put kitten mittens on Delilah's paws and everything so she won't scratch it....I promise we'll be good. I've made Pimms to add to Spoon's, Florentines and my homemade KFC and just in case there's time for BDINI's back passage I have packed my Primarni Uggers AND I put my fake tan on last night....purdy purlease can I come?

    I will await your decision with everything crossed, even my eyes which is making my tea quite tricky to drink.....

    On other news....

    JintyB - how's Kitty Jinty? Any better?

    Spoon - :beer: :j:T re: your NSDs!! You're leading by example!! :D

    Karen - that's awful about your MiL, I am sure you and OH are really worried :( I hope you get some more news today.


    Okay, off to try and drink this cup of tea with these %$^£ crossed eyes....*scampers off to fashion a bib out of hubby's best work shirt :p

    Jo :)

    Of course you can come, Jo, everyone's welcome:D:D:D:D

    Well, the Tardis is ready and waiting - let's start loading the stuff on board.

    Florentines, sandwiches, Nobhobs, Pimms, Champagne, big bag of IAMS for the mogs, litter trays - HOW MANY cats are coming on this trip????? Do we really need all those litter trays? Why not just fill the Tardis swimming pool with cat litter and have done with it? Or put collars on all the cats, fasten them together with a long lead and attach it to the door handle so they can fly along on the outside...that will solve the little waste problem.....(Cue old man in garden as Tardis flies over, "Eh mother, feels like rain again!")

    Are we all in and settled? Seat belts on? Pimms to hand? Just a minute, let's set the sat nav up for Buck Hice.....who's driving this thing anyway? I can't as I failed my flying phone box test.....

    I'm driving Nargle, it's got a bit of a left-ward tilt since the incident over the Grand Canyon, have to be careful when steering now:D.

    Right, kitties all stowed in the back safely? Kathy - do you want to check the cats?

    Nargle, can you check the bottles are all safely stored - don't want any accidents!

    Anyone seen BigMumma? She was going to bring some posh hats for us

    Ready everyone?
