    I saw David Walliams in his speedos at a pool in Manchester years back!
    Not a great image :D.

    So, payday yesterday. A bit busy to report in at the time but as per normal:
    :dance::dance::dance: Do the money shuffle, yeah, yeah :dance::dance::dance:

    2 more paydays to go :eek:. 6 weeks today - 31 days less 1 day leave = 30. Which is :j and :eek: and _pale_ in roughly equal measures :rotfl:.

    2 things in bin 50/365

    1 bag of stuff for chum 51/365.

    About 1/2" of snow, a bit embarrassing really, hardly counts :rotfl:.

    Well, as I will be handing in my iphone when I leave work I need to get a phone - I have never had to buy one before :o.

    :eek::eek::eek:

    Operation 'I'mnotpayingthatforachuffingphoneI'llhavetowinone' has started :D. I have won two good phones in the past - 3rd time lucky and I'll keep it this time :)

    From what I've seen & heard, no. Best to get one here and get a SIM deal I think.
