    Darling, when I was that age no man/boy got one over me!!! My motto was "move them in, bonk them and move them out" substitute bonk for a ruder word if preferred lol I was a right terror back then and the lads didn't stand a chance, now, several years later, several stone heavier and several more grey hairs later I can't be bothered :rotfl:

    Loving those tales of miss-spent youth!

    Hope I will see you in a bit Emm - I'll try and stay up for a bit, I don't want to waste Friday night but my eyes are already starting to close on their own! I'm hopeless! :o

    It's almost 8.30, so before I curl up my toes, hit my forehead on the keyboard and start snoring:
