    I've googled and there's no clue whatsoever how many hours they work, how many days the firm's open. That's annoying isn't it.

    Yes, but only yesterday, though I think some NP had worked it out from the discussion on Succahs or previously.

    Oh wow! that sounds amazing.

    What one are you ...




    Seriously, looks amazing there :beer:

    I would say I've missed the threads. The people for sure. But I've been watching 'doomsday preppers' on national geographic (as per the title it's about Americans who are prepparing for a doomsday like scenario - like collapse of the banking system or hyperinflation), which I think more than makes up for missing some of the wackier threads in the debate forum. :)

    Hello Stranger:j

    Talking of doomsday preppers did you see the piece about River Pheonix's last movie being released finally?

    There is now some space in my IM box.

    I've seen a lot of those for sale in recent years in real life.... and I've pondered "would I?" and decided "No".

    Hi Malcolm!


    Urggggh. First night alone for ages and was really enjoying the solitude. Came up to bed at half ten, fell asleep immeadiately. Next thing I know the dogs are barking like loons and some geezer is calling me from down stairs and I can hear a woman.....


    It was my neighbours. I had not heard the phone ringing and dh had decided I was kaput and our lovely neighbours came to find me.

    Thanked them profusely (will need a nice thank you gift) and called dh who burst in to tears :(.

    I said I didn't think he would have found house training a puppy that hard without me ( as a joke) and he was beside himself.

    Feel a bit like ( a loved and loving) caged bird though. And terrible he was so worried. There are of course many times I cannot get hold of him and I get a bit cross and panicky and imagine he has been run over ( he tends to get lost in thought) or been mugged( he's not that tough) or finally eaten the cheese that gave him cardiac arrest.....so I do know how he feels but.....an hour, late at night when he knew I am at home and feeling better than I have for months?

    It's obviously been really hard for him:(

    DS is back from his school trip abroad. Don't think he liked it but he talks about it a lot so at least it made an impression on him, so I'm pleased about that.

    Facing a long journey soon to buy/sell car. Thought I'd have to do it on Saturday but forgot that nothing shuts north of the border on a Sunday any more (which is the opposite of what it was like when I was a lad)!

    On the good side, I'll see my parents. I'll be exhausted though.
