    Based on current sig and op looks like you are on track to break 100krepayments in 4 years - way to go gal :)
    Hadn't thought of it like that - that's a lot of money _pale_. I could have bought a lot of shoes :D.

    No I got a little stash when it was on offer in Mr T's ages ago. It didn't regenerate though :(. Actually, I think it morphed into fabric conditioner as I could open a shop with my stock of that :rotfl:.

    Hi Gallygirl... I sympathise about the ice scraping. I said almost the same thing on my diary earlier :p
    Well done on surviving the temptations of the Swedish variety.... (at least I'm assuming that's what you meant! :D)
