    Hi hypno, hi all

    I'm back on mse, and hypno has gone....:cry: ahh well, I really hope its going well for you, hypno, not too scary back at a day job.

    Star spotting went well. Didn't have to worry about agonising on whether to buy Patrick Stewart's signature :money: : my friend got there 3 hours before me, and she was no 551 in the queue_pale_ ! She got it tho (queues are virtual, via cloakroom tickets, you don't actually stand there the whole time). Saw Geoff Hurst, Martin Peters from 1966 squad:footie: , several of the actors from Heroes (Heroes, anyone? anyone?), plus lots of great/funny T shirts, lots of *appalling* plastic model tat, and some great dressing up from audience members: Alien, for instance, v frighening:rotfl: . Darth Vader, of course(bit old hat)... but no moving Dalek, they're always good fun. They tend to pin people against walls and grope them with the extermination stick, kind of.........:rotfl: I'm not really grown up, you know, its an illusion.:cool:

    Ha Yorkielass - new job is at a uni!!! Didn't dare use the internet though :rotfl:

    I have just goined facebook and gone into the MSE nerd group - my daughter is not sure whether to be appalled or not that I have dragged myself into 2007!!

    Work was ok, bit boring until the students all come back later in the month but it is money in the bank so that is the main thing - already picked up a couple of extra days this month when the other girl is on hols.

    It was a bit strange being almost 12 hours away though :eek:

    What's this then :confused:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Even the great man :money: has been there, although it appears that his original group was pulled because it was deemed to be advertising:

    Hi folks,

    There are already a couple of great MSEr's groups on Facebook (the social networking site) about the site. So I thought it'd be great to do an official one and that way we can add site content to it where it's appropriate

    If you're logged into facebook: Just go to MoneySavingExpert.com official group (or search official MoneySavingExpert.com), please join the group. Both as it'd be nice to have a load of moneysavers there and also by doing so it helps spread the word.

    Wanna be my friend?

    Feel free, this one is my profile Martin Lewis Facebook (again remember you need to be logged in), I'd love you to join my friends, my aim is to put notes about things and when I'm on t'telly etc in there.

    Any ideas what we should be doing with it?

    Please if you're a facebook regular, I'm not - so I'd love your suggestions on what we can add there to make it better.

    Martin
