    A side point... if you rent it's horrendously expensive to move (I'd need £2500 to move out of here) ... and there's no house swapping, that's for a limited number of council tenants only....

    Again, who is arguing with any of this? It comes back to the choice and gain thing. Its more expensive to move if you buy/sell I think. I've moved a lot between rented and its expensive, especially if you have to argue a point about deposit ( or sue your landlord :D) but if its that or nothing....2500 to be somewhere you have a job is sometimes going to be better than a car and costs for the job.

    Anyway, I suggest we leave it in the NP thread.

    Well tell me how to do it, so I can have a go :)
    I'm not lazy, I just don't know where to focus effort and have no "risk taking" genes, so scared of putting in loads of effort to get nowhere.


    Funnily enough I can see you making a million because you get the internet and that is where it is possible to leverage one idea into sqiullions of pounds even (especially) if you are a don't go out much geek. I think once you have a better PC it may be in designing apps that you make your fortune. I just hope you remember me when I am right.

    Just bought a new dishwasher, our last one was expensive because it was black and there weren't that many black appliances at the time and from new it never actually worked very well in cleaning dishes so we used it as a rinse and dry device, now 5 years later (but probably only about 3 years of use) it doesn't even do that any more so it will have to go. Just got a 'new' one off ebay for 50 quid (20%) less than shop price, hoping very much it is better.
    I think....

    Immaculate, organised, always smelling nice and looking good, efficient.

    Ok?

    I also imagine silver having beautiful nails. That probably also comes under immaculate, but I imagine them being uber stunning.

    Er... I am a hard son. None of these challenges were too hard for her. They were all a stretch. But, in fact, every one took her closer to where she wanted to be.

    P.S. You don't want me involved in your case :D
    I think you sound fabulous. I like you even more than I did before.

    What a lovely photo NDG! Two stunningly handsome boys!

    And who would have thought it? Aethel isn't bald.

    Its always long, the neck, but it hyper extends for good things on tv. Xmen or what ever is on now is not interesting to her. But they don't want music tonight.

    Edit: you can make cake with mayo. Google chocolate mayo cake. Work treat? I never have done, I just know you can.

    That's a combo I'd never have thought about without you suggesting it :eek:
    Daft mare on Grand Designs (from 2002) who did a £1million warehouse conversion in a London conservation area's showing Kevin round her kitchen units... just the oven was £34k back then - he said "this is the sort of thing you get at the Savoy" and she replied "Yes, I think there's one there..."

    Bet the oven would fit in my oven cavity no problems though ;):rotfl:

    It can be annoying continually waiting for screens to load and having to close things and free up space and reboot a lot of times to keep it chugging along.

    If I only have to remember you when you're right ... that makes for an easier target :)

    I can't say I've ever looked at/noticed anybody's nails ... except those gross/creepy ones that you sometimes see on programmes about chavs/scum/troublemakers where they've got strange curved ones that are about 1/2" longer than their fingers!

    Like the middle finger on here: http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/hh62/ebucket16/Photo/Gallery/Fingernails.jpg

    Do people look at others' nails?? Bit creepy/strange if they do to be honest..... (unless they're certifiably weird nails, then it's OK to look..... just to wonder how much of an unstable loon the owner is).

    His assessment is about 5'3" or 5'4" then wearing 1.5" cuban heels.
