    To every single one of you who posted on my diary today: A great big thank you.. You have no idea how comforting this is..
    It has been a tough day, but we got through it and we move on, thats life, and sometimes its sh*t..

    Princess & I are taking it easy, not rushing into anything.. We have our Scottish holiday to look forward to, and we intend to make the most of it..

    I will be back in the office tomorrow, not looking forward to that, but hey ho, its only one day.. Then only 4 days work next week..

    Thanks again to all of you..

    Froggy :cool:

    Ps: Iris sorry, we had a go at "your" cellar tonight :o

    Have all you want Froggy, sometimes a glass or two helps. I had 1/2 a bottle too last night.

    You've been in my thoughts all day. :(
    I can't be bothered updating this anymore

    Im so sorry you didnt get the result you are hoping for .... :(
    Sounds like the holiday will be good timing for you both just to have some time together to regroup ...
    Willing you both on in whatever direction you choose next and sending comforting thoughts your way

    Morning all

    Feeling a bit better today..

    Can I please pick your brains? Does any of you have any experience with Apple computers? We would like a Mac desktop.. Any recommendations, minimum memory, that kind of things? We mainly use the computer for browsing the web, a bit of spreadsheet work..

    Thanks

    Mortgage-free Glee!
    Go mbeanna! Dia is Muire duit Froggy,

    Glad you're on the up and up. What you both need is a nice relaxing week in Scotland and a bit of pampering!

    On the Apple thing, not me personally but there's a few guys about who I can tap for a bit of knowledge. I'll give one such guy a shout and come back to you on a decent but not OTT spec and some price options. Definitely a desktop? I'd point you in the direction of a couple of iPads for web browsing as we find them brilliant. I have to say I've been that taken with the games that I've not tried playing with the spreadsheet as yet.

    Cheers,

    Billy
