    :p Bookmarked! I really should be doing the ironing, y'know, and reading pension guff and behaving like a proper grown up person.

    Ach well, I'm nearly 50, prolly a hopeless case by now. ;)

    :) I'm actually 20. You wouldn't know it to look at me, and my knees try to give me the lie, but they've been twingeing since I was a teenager fer real. I blame being made to do cross-country running at school.

    I am not one of life's natural runners, being more inclined to ride a bike if I need to go faster than a steady walk. Some of us are built for comfort not for speed.

    :D GQ you never fail to cheer me up - thankyou ! :kisses3:

    I also admire GQ posts, the humour in her style of writing is so wonderful.

    It actually reminds me of "Bridget Jones Diary" style. Hope this doesn't offend.

    :D Absolutely unoffended. Gosh, to be compared to a best-selling author, oooh, the horror of it.:rotfl:

    I type like I speak; generally too much, playing it for laughs and fairly randomly dotting around the place.

    There's no greater pleasure than to raise a smile.

    I've ironed (in case VJsMum passes by, this being somewhat of a running gag between us), tally was 2 blouses, 3 liddle hankies, 2 pillowcases and pair pjs. That's Mount Ironmore by my standards btw.

    Am drinking tea, flitting between here, hoarding websites and ZH and have a rug over the ironing board as I'm doing some sorting out of small debris.

    Question; how many empty 35mm film cannisters is one prepper allowed to have? And does the number fluctuate depending on how many empty pill bottles she's also hoarding? I'm afeard things might have gone a bit Too Far.............:p
