Lovely pics - loved the ferry with all the bikes :T. And the window one - gorgeous pic. A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

Absolutely lovely, MWC those market photos are wonderful. Well, they're all wonderful, but the market photos, you can see that the veg. aren't from some wholesaler - they're from their own market garden, as much as they've got ready. Brilliant 2023: the year I get to buy a car0

We pootled around town this afternoon in the sunshine and my dad treated us to a coffee in the bookshop Whilst there I was looking at the food p@rn and decided to treat myself to a new cookbook - unknowingly I've ended up with a real bargain... the new Anna Barnett (The Reluctant Vegetarian) book not due to be released until 7 May for the bargainous price of £7.99 (£17.09 pre-order price on Amaz@n) :T:T:T Mortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000
