    Miss Laid I'm sure you know lappys are 100% tax deductable as they are part of capital allowance if you're self employed.

    HC your fan or mb will pack up as soon as the Applecare runs out lol....oh, hang on I bet you didn't buy it?!?!

    Not so much a shotgun, but a rifle on the other hand....:D:D:D

    These are from a shooting range in New Zealand. The targets, which are about the size of someones head were about 100' away and the .22 rifle didn't have any fancy telescopic sight. I reckon I'd make a good sniper/assassin.:beer::beer:

    Nope, never bought it. The only problems I've had with it are the speakers and the Superdrive. The speakers were fixed by apple as a good deed but wouldn't admit it was their software update that caused the problem and I fixed the superdrive myself.:beer:

    Morning all :wave: Didn't log on last night as I started reading my James Patterson book and couldn't put it down. All plans/jobs/hair washing went out the window - i got half way through cos it was so gripping. Thought i'd read some psychological gory thriller before i buy the 50 shades of grey book :D

    Hope everyone is ok, off to catch up.

    I started 50 shades of grey yesterday.... Naughty but very nice :eek::rotfl:

    Tinyshoes - So sorry your Mum's still in a lot of pain, that really isn't good enough that they couldn't get her regular medication from pharmacy until this evening. You running back and forth is just not on and you shouldn't feel guilty, they should. Your poor Mum :(:A Very pleased to hear that the temperature has subsided which sounds very positive for the infection side of things. Hoping that after a couple of days rest, she can build her strength up a little and will feel more herself. So pleased you got your coupon shop in eventually :T Go you!! :D

    SpirallingDown - So sorry I missed you off my post earlier I meant to say that I'm sorry that it's still ongoing with the contractor issues :(:(:mad::mad: Hope they stop fobbing you off and get some damn work done ASAP!

    Also I want to say a huge thank you and send big cuddles publicly to 2 very very special ladies Westie and Chelseagirl. You are both inspirational and utterly lovely and it is an absolute pleasure speaking to you :A:Axx

    And while I'm on the subject of lovely ladies.....I am very muchly missing lutzi1 and really hope she's ok and everything went well with her Jubilee celebrations :Axx

    I always give coins on the street I find a little nudge with my foot first ;)

    Some years ago I spotted a £1 coin on the pavement and went to pick the thing up when it moved:eek: Some chap had tied a thin bit of cotton to the coin. So I stamped on the cotton and took it :cool: He was like :eek:
    I gave it back to him though :p
    too funny ...:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
