    :eek: I just added her as a friend ..what have i got myself into;):rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Of the 4 of us, it would be me who would be most likely to be the girl in the photo - with all that booze - but, as SW says, substitute the bootes for chocolates, and that is definitely her - especially as she slept on the sofa bed in the living room, giving me her bedroom

    Certainly did Beanie - as you will find out when we all meet you too, which we are really looking forward to :j :j We actually didn't need any booze, we had a scream just chatting and chatting and chatting - we all got on so well, it was a real house-party atmosphere

    How are you hun, how's the conservatory?

    Will have to do my packing earlier and plan better next time though - half way to the station on Friday I remembered I hadn't put my dingle in my case so took my laptop out of my case and left it with Mr 3Dogs to take back home :( As we drove along, I then realised I had forgotten my PJ's which I'd had to put in the airing cupboard while packing as they were still just a little damp, my sit-around casual trousers so only had the trousers I was wearing, and my slippers

    Steve's Dad was lovely and told Steve to look out a pair of his late Mum's slippers for me, which was so nice of him. When we were in Gunwharf Quay on Saturday, I managed to buy a nice pair of PJ's half price for £6.50 and was absolutely delighted when they fit me really well as they were size 16/18 when I was looking for 18/20 (remembering that I was wearing size 26/28 at my heaviest, I was exstatic at being able to wear 16/18 now) and they still fit me now even after all I ate at the weekend :p

    Any chance of your son or a friend looking up on roof when it is dry again and perhaps just using some sealant or something?

    Just had a good cry at the finale of michel roux's service! Im surprised brooke didn't get a shot, but i think the scholorships were well deserved for the chaps that received them.

    SW: I'm afraid i do like sport. I've grown up with it being on tv constantly. Daily there is some form of sport on generally!

    Everyones going to see Beanie poo's!!!!! I'd be too embarassed to meet anyone, i've only met one person that i met online when she came to uni down here...we didnt meet again!

    Well done 3dogs!!! There is nothing better than dropping the clothes sizes, apart from it being really expensive, and crushing when things you like you can't wear anymore!

    I'm going to bluewater this week, i am SO excited. Its been absolutly ages since i've been shopping. I know for a fact i'll come back empty handed because im so excited about it.
