    I read all of mike's mob until about 4am. talk about consumer revenge!

    The whole thing? Am I just a really slow reader then? OH says I am, but I think I'm just worried I'll miss something, so won't skim read. :o

    Don't chat about it till I've read it then! (probably be finished by the weekend at this rate!)
    ;)

    me too.

    I'm trying not to become anti-social about it but I really don't like spending cash.

    This, however, does not stop me hitting the vending machine at work when I'm stressed and it's supposed to be a NSD. :mad:

    passport update: the office called me to tell me the reason I don't have the passport back is because they didnt even start on mine yet.

    if I want my current passport back I have to send them a letter via fax.
