    kerri gt -Glad you got a free day to spend in Japan and *almost* got to see the sights. When I read earlier in the week that you were there with work I thought what an awesome place to visit!

    Ahhh, thanks Honey. I do appreciate that I get to travel to places I otherwise wouldn't, and that some people don't get the oppertunity to visit.

    LFV : glad to hear all well as well as it could on Thursday

    And fab news on the job :T
    :D

    Awww shucks. Thank you very much. Bonus is it looks like I won't have to start until the new year so I'll be able to do xmas with the nursery and have xmas hols with kids. Happy days!
    I was going to wait for the new month in November but then I thought "no time like the present" so I'm going to attempt 10 NSDs for what's left in October!

    Wish me luck (I'm new to this!!)

    Good luck.HSirish.gif*You'll need it with this lot - points finger around the thread (at no-one in particular I hasten to add :D)*

    Welcome to the funny farm HSlostmind.gif

    Working my way through posts. Be back soon.....

    Life is knowing which bridges to burn and which bridges to build! :think:


  • ........and here I am again.

    Thanks also to 3Dogs, Keiss, Spoon and everyone else. It's amazing how much your world can change in three weeks. Quite scary. Unfortunately it didn't change to the tune of £112million. Oh well, there's always next week's small change of £13million.

    I hope you get your van sorted soon 3dogs. I'm desperately trying to find that smiley you've had previously of the dogs pulling the sled, seemed appropriate!

    Karen - hope you feel better soon.

    I'm declaring NSD 5 now as I probably won't be back on here tonight.

    Enjoy the rest of your day.

    ((((big hugs)))) Donna, :mad: to how hard the letting agents are making it, but stick at it & i hope they get it sorted soon.

    Small spend today, just my prescription & a box of weetabix & some milk after i'd been to the dr's, as thats all i seem to be eating these days.
    Still off work as he reckons i've now got an infection in my bowel :eek:
    so much fun was had this afternoon trying to collect a sample in an impossible small bottle with the impossibly small scoop they provide!! :eek::eek:

    Oh well at least being stuck in the house means more NSD's, every cloud & all that!!!

    Still on 4 but hopefully towards the weekend we should see a bashful little NSD poking its little nosey above the parapet.

    Been quite busy with work and sloggus domesticus over past few days so not had much time to log on, but I assume the New York trip tomorrow (Freethought Day) is still on?

    Spoon, stop clocking up the NSDs and get out there and tax and MOT the Tardis as we have a few trips coming up and I don't think Hubert can manage to carry all of us over the Big Pond....
