    That could make it even more expense an issue... Hope you frame the wedding invite so you can be grateful you were asked. ;):D

    I would like to think that if it got to the point where expense meant I had to forgo the 'plus one' invitations, I'd have a bit of a reality check on my priorities!

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Knee fixed. :)

    Apparently all I needed to do was waste more time on here and not move for a while :)

    Maybe NDG's OH is an "unwanted ex" :)
    Persona non grata.

    Hehehehe

    Maybe I am a little grumpy.

    I woke up grumpy, and it turned into feeling very blue :(

    I am plugging the empty feeling with as much high-calorie food as I can get through this evening.

    Had a second viewing on a house this evening (first saw it last night). It is incredibly overpriced, and has been slightly massacred (eg lots of expanding filler stuff on the outside where they moved the kitchen waste pipe.
    Last night I was tempted to make an offer. Today I am not.

    I think the 18 yr old estate agent was flirting with me too. I felt quite grubby being nice back rather than telling him what I think of estate agents!

    At 18 he'd not understand a word you said .... so would just get back to the office and when asked how it went he'd say "Mad lesbian with PMT".

    This is a camera comparison page but I'm not sure if it helps:
    http://www.gsmarena.com/piccmp.php3?idType=2&idPhone1=5322&idPhone3=5321&idCamera2=30002
    The original one recommended was the Huawei Ascend G900, which isn't on the drop down.... so no :)

    Here's a comparison: http://www.esato.com/phones/compare.php?phone=1023&cp=934

    If only I understood the two different values for some of the items.... I can compare a tick and a cross... not two alien/different spec numbers

    :rotfl:

    Yesterday he decided he was going to:
    a) guess how old I am (his guess - 23 :rotfl: I was wearing a hoodie though. Innit.)
    b) guess my hobbies (first guess - don't really like music. Oops.)

    Did he ask if you work out ?- I find this is the first question you get asked when you go into a car show room even when one look at me it is patently obvious that I don't 'work out' :)
    I think....
