I did too, though don't tell b-i-l. What's it they say, "who needs van Persie as one of your 11 when you've got Steven Fletcher as one of your 10", or something like that. Did I see your goalie got MotM too? Seriously, really pleased for your lot. I do like a good underdog tale.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

32% tight. Like PN some questions don't apply. I have my tea so weak I always share a teabag with OH. I've also never been in a charity shop, let alone haggled in one.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

Radio:
Capital in the mornings, though Johnny Vaughan@s departure may change that.
LBC most of the other time.

Do you want to go?

I went to the Kiss FM launch party in 1990 (as I mentioned a few posts back) but I went to the funeral this year of one of the three friends I went with. The other two live on other contiinents. Spending money to see people you don't normally see is a high priority spend.
I'll "lose" money taking my family to see my parents 400 miles away in a few days time but they're not getting any younger and I'd never skip it.
A mate once said "economy should be your servant, not your god"
So I'd say go, but it's not my money I'd be spending.:DThere is no honour to be had in not knowing a thing that can be known - Danny Baker0 -

Guess I will go. I do dislike expensive things just after Christmas though. At least I'm using the free £10 rail voucher Martin got for us.0
