    Hi Froggy, hows things with you, hope you are doing ok?

    Sorry to hear the redundancy situation is not improving

    I just realised today that Christmas is only seven weeks to-morrow (said very quietly so as not too upset any of the others) but the good news is is that means that your holiday to France and spending time with your family is only 6 weeks away :j

    I'm on hols in three weeks time but think i'll just be staying at home although a short city break to Bruges is possibly on the cards.

    I've also just arranged my Christmas leave from work, I can't remember the first day I start my hols, think it is a couple of days before Christmas Eve and then I've taken right through to the 9th January off which I'm really looking forward to.

    Re John Bishop, if you had mentioned him last year I wouldn't have known who you meant but a few months ago my mother got me into him as she thinks he is great and I have seen him a few times on TV now and he iss verrry funny so his show should be great :D

    Hi ATT,

    I have it on very good authority that he's off on a week-long bender celebrating his epic ping pong win.

    Cheers,

    Morning

    Sorry not been around for a little while..

    First of all, Billy, you are FIRED! Played ping pong twice this week, won one, lost one.. I don't have time to go on week long bender :rotfl:By the way, have you bought a nice house round the corner for me that I can rent out from you yet??? :D

    Hi ATT

    I have been battling for my job lately, and its been taking its toll on me, physically & mentally.. All that on top of the relationship breakdown is not helping much.. I have not been able to concentrate on any money making lately, so I must make time to get back on track at some point.. Hope all ok with you?

    Cheers

    Froggy, don't worry about making money at the moment. Your emotional and physical well-being is much more important. When will you know if your job is secure? I hope you have people around you looking after you?

    A bwado Froggy,

    LOST?!? That's no bloody good. Whats the severance package like for part-time, remote supporting, gun-toting, ping pong motivational coaches these days? Not sure if Billy Street will extend all the way down the road to suit you but I'll see what I can do for you...

    Happy to look at buying the current house to ensure that ol' Elvis doesn't have to put up with the trauma of a move!!

    Cheers,

    Billy
