    Hiya All!! :hello:

    thanks for the sweeties cmc :p

    toni: (((hugs to topsy))) hope he gets better soon

    More good news on the home moving front,

    phoned BT last week and they said there wasn't a telephone connection in the new flat

    when I visited the flat yesterday I noticed a BT connection box

    so I phoned again today and told the operator and she said they they have now found a line into the flat and it can be connected this Friday :D

    we have gone for BT Basic at £13.50 a quarter and a £4.50 call allowance as we don't use the phone much ;)

    they also said that as my old line and new line will be active at the same time and because the old line is in my name and the new line is in my wife's name they should be able to transfer the broadband over without a break in service :D

    I'll believe the above when it happens but hopefully I won't be off-line for too long

    Just noticed MSE Andreas post on the Skimlinks thread that they are going to be removing Skimlinks from the Competitions forum :D

    that's great news and what with the parties and sweeties and the soon to be "i've entered" button I feel like christmas has arrived early

    wish Korky hadn't posted the dancing chicken though as I can't get the "Funky Chicken" song out of my head :eek: for younger members of MSE the lyrics go something like this

    Yall come on in now
    Come right on down front
    I got something I want to show you
    Now yall heard of the Popcorn
    Yall heard of the Dog
    You heard about all your other dances
    But now there's a brand new dance
    That's going around
    I want to show you exactly what I'm talking about
    I'm talking about the funky chicken, yall ready?

    You raise the left arm up
    And your right arm too
    Let me tell you just what to do
    Start both of em to flapping
    You start your feet to kicking
    That's when you know
    You doin the funky chicken

    You put both arms up across your face
    You knees start wiggling all over the place
    You flap your arms
    And your feet start kicking
    Then you know you doin the funky chicken

    Oh, I'm feeling it now
    I feel so unnecessary
    This is the kind
    This is the kind of stuff
    To make you feel like you
    Want to do something nasty
    Like waste some chicken gravy
    On your white shirt
    Right down front here we go yall

    the song used to be a rave in the disco and then along came the "Disco Duck" and the "Funky Gibbon" really crazy songs but great fun when inebriated

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
