 It isn't overcrowded at all it is just not well utilised.. There are very few people at all really it is just that most of the resources are misused and not shared equally like they should be.. far too many hog everything for themselves and far too many have nothing.. it is a disgrace really.

            Not a lot of flying done - but Dulux dog look has gone as promised. i told the hairdresser 'think Judi Dench/Liza Minelli' and that's the 'look' I now have. And we both agree all-over purple would look good - but I'll have to save up for that as I have new specs to pay for after this afternoon's trip to the optician's  :eek: Varifocals plus special thinned down lenses equals spensiveness :cool: and I've gone for a new look. Byebye Elvis sunglasses inspired specs and in black framed preppy look...oh my, I hope I like them I'm going to have to wear them for two years at least...blind as a bat without my specs - but I'll have to save up for that as I have new specs to pay for after this afternoon's trip to the optician's  :eek: Varifocals plus special thinned down lenses equals spensiveness :cool: and I've gone for a new look.
