    Well I for one certainly wasn't offended at not being in Bananababe's list. I thought her (drunken?) outpouring quite sweet, actually:)
    And to be really pedantic, she did say:
    "Sorry if not mentioned everyone but assured be that every single one of you make a difference on here."

    Zappo, without intending to offend I would like to point out that lists of people are quite common on this thread. I don't manage to post as regularly as I would like due to RL getting in the way and a list of peeps to thank, commiserate with, congratulate, wish happy birthday to etc is an easy way to catch up with everyone.
    Lots of the regulars post regularly, not just a couple of times a month, so stand out as the backbone of the thread.
    Bananababe was obviously feeling happy and was expressing that she appreciates the input, humour, cheek, help and general bonhomie shown by the posters she listed. It in no way indicates a 'clique'.
    As I said, I don't post as often as I'd like, but always feel welcome when I do. Newbies and irregular posters are welcomed with open arms, so please don't ask bananababe to delete her post. It is an indication to all that view the thread that this is a happy, congenial place to be, with help and appreciation abounding.

    whats the point in asking someone to delete a post, when its been quoted in full by the asker.

    Morning everyone - we are sunny and snowless.

    The postie has brought the Marks bill for December. I spent 70p. The reward statement comes in February and as I now have 103 points I've got a £1 one to come - dancing on air this morning.

    My oooomph seems to have gone, no lists written and no idea in which direction to wonder today.

    One direction we go in normally on a Saturday OH says is boring as this is always where we end up going, cannot abide the local town and not enough incentive to venture further afield.

    I can't seem to get very excited about the sales, nothing i seem to need at all but if I forced myself out there and found something and the spark might come back.

    Is anyone else feeling lack lustre or is it me?

    Now, buzz off and get that floor laid:D
