    Mmmmm - Thai food - had a lovely lunch :D

    Bunny - what is it - a week now until you start your course?

    Katsu - is it worth getting some of that spray on 'skin' plasters?

    Pepe, the U and I are on separate keys, therefore I can only conclude that it was a freudian slip, and you are, in fact, sinning AS WE SPEAK, rather than having a predictive text issue. :D:D

    :cool:Afternoon.

    Hugs Buffy and Sally.

    Hello new faces!

    Lou, I hope your neighbours have recovered from their fright now, silly boys.

    Bunny, good news on the CD clients.

    Elfen, well done on the presentation.

    Welcome home SRM.

    Beanie, sorry I missed your birthday, hope you had a good time.

    Suzy, I've no idea about the car, sorry. I wouldn't have a problem with a SORNed car, but wouldn't be too keen on one with no MOT, but then again for £300 it's not too big a risk.

    Katsu, hope DH's foot heals soon.

    Well, this morning I had to go get the Ilkley tickets, Audrey Niffeneger had sold out :( so I'll have to go get there early and hope they've got some returns. Then it turned into a spoil myself rotten day - brunch at Betty's, and a mooch round the charity shops in Ilkley and Otley. I got a gorgeous skirt, a nice scarf, and a [STRIKE]few[/STRIKE]lot of books.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Butti - good luck with the CDL people. Sounds like things are mostly going really well.

    Hmmm Just spoken to Barclays ( I can't find the folder with my student budget in :mad:) and they seem to have taken money off the total allowed (£10,000) for the food budget and because they don't count payments on credit cards in the budget. Well if they'd told me that I would have substituted something else.

    Think the budget came in at about £11k so hoping it won't make much difference, but REALLY annoyed about not being able to find folder. Bloody cleaning for house viewings :mad::mad::mad:
