    :hello:evening all!
    Its been a lovely day here in Cambridge, everyone is so much nicer when the sun shines.
    I picked up the free Ben and Jerrys this morning (after queuing for 30 mins!) and was given 5 £1.00 coupons and 5 spoons shaped like little spades (very cute!) Does anyone know if the Ben and Jerrys core 500ml are comparing?
    Thanks in advance :)

    :)

    Thanking you All for thinking of me & my working day ♥

    :) Much better today as my work colleague today was a very dear friend ♥ (and a secret Elite lurker ;) one day she will come out & post)

    I know how you feel Tweets - I have a :mad: work colleague & yesterday they said something really nasty to me :( luckily I couldn't tackle them about it till an hour later & thus was calm & collected ;) rather than Red Mist & Ranting :cool:
    My secret revenge? I will never include them in glitches again :p:p:p

    Happy days - I'm now off till monday :T

    ;) We are on the Cambrian Coast Line :)

    :j

    I do love going back...it's a beautiful country with amazing places to visit. I love cycling along the Mawddach Trail, climbing Cader Idris and walking on the Precipice Walk.

    :T

    The local paper amuses me though...when I go back home the weekly paper's main headline is along the lines of 'GINGER CAT NOT SEEN FOR TWO DAYS'.

    Compare this to a Manchester Evening News headline of 'MAN STABBED IN NIGHCLUB BRAWL'.

    The 2 places are only 90 miles away from each other, but they feel like different worlds.

    I vote something like salmon or caviar - the king (or queen) of the seas!

    Guppies?
    Angel Fish?

    i am waiting for a woman to call me back, i explianed that i was diabetic, she said, i dont know why they have you on fasting as this is normally done under local aneasthetic :eek::eek::eek::eek: there is no way i am gonna be awake when they chop of my toe.

    Hi MMW, I had to have a bone removed from my big toe about ten years ago and had this done under local. I was quite worried that I would still feel it but it fine I never felt a thing and was quite glad that I had not had the full anaesthetic.

    I'd vote for something like a Bluefin Tuna.

    Apparently, they are the number 1 most endangered species of fish.....i.e. they're rare to find; just like an extremely nice Tesco employee!

    Why are OH's so :mad: :cry:
    I save and save to get debts and bills paid and for what!!! For OH to just keep spending what ever he likes on booze. Yes he has a serious drink problem and whenever I think I might get a bit of our debt paid it is gone. Our grocery's are around £80 a month. He's spent £125 that I know about in the last three 3 weeks. Where I'm going to find the money to cover that I don't know. I just hope this latest binge period ends soon.

    Sorry to hijack the thread. I'm just so upset.

    Angel fish gets my vote :)
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.
