    Well done on reclaiming all the charges, Reddie - you go, girl! :D

    Enjoy your evening TV. I love Dibley as well. What's really, really funny though, is that one of my friends from uni lives in a village where it is EXACTLY like that, except for Dawn French living there. I never thought places like that really existed! :rotfl:

    Thank you ladies, it was only £37 but yes, every little helps!

    Books almost done, so very boring but my own fault for leaving it til now, should really do them every week and I will try in January. Also doing it weekly means they are more acccurate, as I have mentioned before DH has a habit of not having receipts and not being able to account for pennies.

    TV no better, now watching RTE (irish tv) which I don't think you get........not much on there either!
