    Thank you! I am definitely getting there x
    I just love how things like birthdays bring all the lurkers out (I lurk most of the time, your thread is too quick for me!!) It makes me think of all these virtual people cheering and whooping when you get the keys to the new pad :D

    sorry, beanie - as you were someone who posted on my very first thread, on my very first day on MSE, you deserve to share in the party *properly*. There is a sprout with your name on it :D

    It sounds lovely :D

    We've decided not to go there - partly because of cost and partly because we don't want to be rushing to get our train.

    Instead we've decided to do afternoon tea at a posh hotel in Edinburgh sometime in December. I can taste the scones already...!

    Ah now, given the choice of Tea at The Ritz or a proper Scottish High Tea I would deffo be staying north of the border :D

    If there aren't enough tinned sprouts to go round, you can always buy some fresh ones from Approved Foods (1p a sprout, apparently)!

    Congratulations on the birthday message from :money:. Woweee!

    Great to hear you've had some wonderful birthday celebrations - lovely idea by your Peterborough friends to have a proper party :D.

    The layout of your new home looks wonderful - when you've had an evening on the sofa there'll be no stairs to tackle on the way to bed :p.
