Come on NIM, not you too! It's lose, not loose!

That reminds me, I had to explain to a colleague yesterday how to differentiate between to and too, the best I could come up with is that if you say it in a Yorkshire accent and drop the o it's only got one i.e. Going t'farm That method should totally be taught in schools, might suggest it to my teacher friends!

ha ha, love it!

Oh no, must dash, I've actually been given something to do *shock horror*

Can I just say, again, Dinah and NIM make VERY cute babies! Couldn't believe the photo Dinah put up on FB today - she looks like a totally different baby altogether

Love your plans for the weekend, Birdie. Nothing crazy for me, will take Ryder to the lake for a swim tomorrow I think and we're off to my Parents' on Sunday for tea. Free yorkshire puddings!

Have to say, you have done SO well on debt clearing Beccie. We're here to cheer you on and give some moral support if you ever need it

Went up to see my Grandad this afternoon, he had a fall and had to go too the hospital for x-rays today. He's okay, in pain but we don't think anything's broken. But it brought back all the problems we went through last summer when I was sure we were going to lose him Just hope this fall doesn't have the same knock on effects. Took Ryder for a good walk when I got home though which gave me time to clear my head (perks of having a dog ) and also came home to a winning entry email to say I've won a bacon crisper :rotfl: Which we won't use, so I'll pop it in our present basic to pass on to some poor unsuspecting relative!

Hope you all have a good weekend

Come on Cinny, are you trying to give our poor Birdie a nervous breakdown Seriously though, glad he's OK physically and hope he makes a full recovery :grouphug: (Hey I've only just noticed the middle guy's mouth! That really is a dodgy hug!)

Agreed, Gracie looks so different in the latest pic (a lot like NIM I think), I'm trying to say this without being offensive - she looks just like a 'normal' newborn now, she doesn't seem to have that uber-delicate translucentness anymore

Beccie, wow, yeah I can really understand how you'd want to relax a bit but I can see how that snowballs. I don't have any debt myself (anymore) but Ive relaxed a bit the last couple of months and bought loads of clothes etc and seen my savings plummet. I know you say its great not to be paying interest any more but personally I'd find it more of incentive to pay it back if it was family I owed.

I'm doing a bit of running at the weekend (for a change) but looking out at the trees waving about is making me not wanna! Hoping to get some ebaying done but I can't find my memory card - any suggestions for where it could be lurking?! Also may have a date on Sunday - can't really be pestered with it but need to get back on the horse at some point!

Dinah can you post a photo here of baby Grace as I haven't seen her since she was born (unless you want to pm me your Facebook details?). I'd love to see how gorgeous she is now

Cinny I hope your grandad is okay?

Seconding what star says, would love to see a pic of Grace

The weather does suck doesnt it tete, its nearly July fgs! hope the date goes well, how did you meet him?

Your poor grandad cinny, glad he's on the mend. I've come home to collect my last posessions for my new house and my mum has viral vertigo, such a strange illness and they have no idea how long it can last. My grandads a (hypocondriac!) Doctor and was warning us it can last months, hope that's not the case.

Birdie ive been telling loads of people your too/to rule, its brilliant! Did your oh make it away?

Amazing debt busting beccie! With my house move and waiting for 1st payday im not doing so well, work owe me about £1k of expenses tho! And everything is 0% interest for now, may need some advice come payday tho on best way to manage it

have a good weekend everyone, im cramming in a lot of friend visiting so hope theres still time to pack...

Hope you're Grandad recovers soon Cinny. My mum keeps telling me that since I've moved my nan is back to her old self. Maybe it was my "evil" influence that was making her mad. I should say she does actually have dementia but her symptoms are a lot better now. And way before she ever displayed symptoms she has always told my mum I was evil...

Best of luck with finishing the move Archers, we managed to not get into any debt with our move but we did completely raid the wedding fund to pay for everything!

I would also like to see a new picture of Grace, especially since now she has passed her 0th birthday!

Cinny91

Thanks everyone I'm 99% sure he'll be fine. Just likes to scare me every now and then!

Hope your moving is going well Archers, and that your Mum's better soon

Good on you for (possibly) getting back on the dating horse, Tete. Any guy is lucky to have you, you're a catch! Will be needing all the juicy details tomorrow

Absolutely fuming at my Brothers Girlfriend, I walked Ryder up to their house last night, Ryder trotted into the living room to say hello and the next thing I hear is "get your f***ing dog" and Ryder yelping, turns out she kicked him!!! :mad: Called her out, but was in such shock (she's meant to be this amazing dog lover!) I just gave Ryder a cuddle, got him back on his lead and left. This is the second time she's hurt him, fair enough if it was an accident but she didn't even have the decency to say sorry! My brother tried to make a joke out of it :mad: Would happily knock both their heads together. Seeing them tonight for the family meal and I'm pretty certain I'm going to end up yelling at her

Hope everyone's weekend is going less murderous than mine!!

What a cow! That's horrid Cinny Poor Ryder, keep him away from the nasty girl

Yesterday my dad rang me to tell me my car had been stolen... that was fun. Police were called, I was crying in the middle of town, dashed home...and there was my car. Parked in a different spot to where my dad thought it was, idiot!
