    Careful, that's how rumours start :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I do occasionally watch the Ideal World channel, just to shout at that stupid camp "chef" making a big deal about chopping forty different kinds of fruit. YOU'RE CHOPPING FRUIT YOU LOSER!

    Not someone else who shouts at the telly. They can't hear you, you know... ;)

    Course they can. That's why they look so embarrassed. Even if they couldn't hear, I can. And I'm satisfied with it :D

    oooohps as I hadn't spent my fiver today I went off to the co-op to get some munchies, got 2 2l bottles of pepsi max for £1.49 and some chocolate. So my total left from this week is £2.87. I'm going to put all my left over money in an envelope for emergercies, or if I have any left I'm going to take it with me when we go away at the beginning of August. If I can save £3 a week for 17 weeks until we go away that should easily be enough spending money for while we're there (it's only a long weeked).

    Are you sure they just aren't embarrassed at being talentless individuals, stuck in a dead-end job in a Z-Class television station, advertising endless waves of mediocre crap?

    And then you go and shout at them on top of that... :eek:
