    I think I must be a middle @rse as I am 5ft 51/2 - yes the 1/2 is very important. My ex was 6'4! Mr C is 5'7 which is just right for me.

    I've been keeping quiet as I'm not sure if I should be in *this* short-arrse club. :p

    Although I'm only 5' 11", there's short and then there's short... :tongue:

    Though apparently people do like the larger member.

    Just been on to Sainsbury's Energy about the solar panels thingy for half an hour - I was trying to post on here, but hit the wrong button and lost everything, grrr. I wish I'd been on here for the short talk! I'm proud to be an honorary member of the short club - I clock in at 5 foot 6.5 inches, oops. Larger numbers, smaller numbers, we like them all :)
    Ooh KC is scarey when her monkeys up!
    I certainly can be :)
    I await with interest new developments wish I could tell the census people to go jump but I need the cash :(

    I had a think about it - in ignoring them, I'm committing to making the trading work, and when I've made that deep level commitment within myself about finances, its always worked.

    Oh, I so loved to dance, I wasnt at a stage school either, just a local ballet school. Had a place at a school in Liverpool but never took it up. I still wish I had followed it up but hey ho. My favourite thing to do is to go to the ballet, shame that I never had any friends who felt the same but Mr C loves the arts so we get to do those things together now.
    Wow! I went to Nesta Bellis - she was wonderful, her love of dance just shone through.
    My friend Haruko (a concert pianist) has a recital in London on 11th March if you happen to be up there and like that kind of thing I could highly recommend her. She is fab.
    I just had a look - thats one of my Fridays that I'm working :( that would have been great to go to the concert of a friend of a friend.
    Is it just me or is the bit of diary land that I lurk in, a bit quiet lately? I know you commented on it KC, but when I go to userCP and there are only a few in the list, and some of them have times from early this morning.
    When Z said there was a lot of activity on f/b these days, it got me worried! Every so often now, I am reassessing my presence here on mse, tobe honest - I don't have debts, I don't have a mortgage, my money focus is the trading, which nobody understands even though they're interested and are willing to support me - what am I **doing**?

    I don't understand any of the trading talk, but it fascinates me. Hope you actually got started.
    Me too - or I'm seriously going to regret giving the census the finger :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Hi El! I'm a bit confused .... teach you the census? Not the trading? I haven't made it work myself yet!
