A plan so cunning you could brush your teeth with it :)

Stay happy sweetie, are you borrowing a friend's car for the rest of the week? I hope so.

I just rang the A+L bank to get my money out of an old ISA - they didn't believe I was me!!! I reckon the first girl was just lazy a bit like the Bodgit and Scarper brigade you had to ring too. What a waste of time. I rang back and luckily, the second girl believed i was real and they will ring me back in 3 hours so i can take out my money!!!! No wonder people rob banks it is a bit quicker.

hey chev ( hope you dont mind bob) mr El is learning a few lessons in budgetting for food just now ... he wanted a takeaway the other day and asked if he could have one ( this is what we used to do ) i said i dont know you deal with that budget ... he had a look and decided against it ( this is unheard of new territory for him) he is also counting every penny and yet still his budget is going down ( we now need to go and buy some bulbs for the downstairs computer room) and he isnt liking it too much ... but i know he will get there in a few months ... either that or we will go bankrupt with him trying :rotfl:

hows you doing?

Bob - I find Olbas pastilles solve a hacking cough. Either the sugar coated green ones that de-fur your tongue at the same time or the naked blackcurrant ones. Both are best stuck in between your teeth and cheek, since chewing them may mean a trip to the dentist (in my experience )

p.s. If they taste horrible at the first attempt, you are not ill enuf [after 6 boxes they taste strangely comforting]
