  • Just popping out of lurkdom to say ta to Cheery for the wonderful link to the Cold Antler Farm blog - I've read it before but not in ages, so will make a note to go back often.

    Very inspirational stuff and couldn't have come at a better time. I have lost all direction, know where I've come from and what I want to leave behind, but as to what comes next I haven't a clue :) It should be exciting starting again but it's terrifying :eek: :D

    Just a bit of silliness - but what's your number?

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-15391515

    Apparently I am the 3,616,364,853 rd person alive on earth - who knew???

    MG

    I'm 4,482,330,058th.

    So that's less than ten years between MG and me for just under a billion, then another three and a half billion in the next 30 years, making an average of an extra billion per decade, and that's not taking into account the Chinese One Child policy.

    Oh my! :eek:

    LOL. Our new granddaughter arrived at 9.30 this morning (GMT) so that's another one for the total.

    We've even seen her on Skype already!:cool: It's a small world now.
    But how can you know what you want till you get what you want and you see if you like it?
  • Congratulations Tricia and family! :j

    Awwww!!!! Not broody you understand - but I will take being Auntie MG any day:rotfl: Send the new family our love.

    Making Bottom of the Fridge Soup with DS2 this afternoon - then two girlie pals are coming over for a chat. Both are finding the recession beginning to pinch and although I have offered in the past to help them embrace OS habits I have always been poo-poohed and fed a line of excuses as to why it was "not for people like us"

    I'm guessing there are more and more "people like us" reaching breaking point:(

    So I had better go and hide the wombled insulation hadn't I - that's probably a little too extreme:cool: Maybe we should start with "budgets that work" and "meal-planning 101"
