Hello all!

Believe it or not, I think I actually understand matched betting from reading JM's guide on the forum. I just need the money to try it! Also, I am a bit limited as getting to Betting Shops won't happen. I would certainly give it a try, though if I can find the money for it!

Well done on the crunchy nuts, melly!

I must have slept oddly and have hurt my neck, on the healthy side! That just isn't fair...

In other news my teacher friend and I are contemplating learning a language together. He says Russian, my american friend says something eastern because she is fluent in Thai and says languages with tonal inflections are very easy to learn. I have no idea.

It's alleged that Mandarin is very easy to learn, although the reading and writing in addition to speaking it could prove a bit of a challenge.

Hello, Errata! I have been wondering how you were! I hope that you had a good Christmas and New Year.

Mandarin is a possibility! Looking it up just now it also has changing tones which is what my american friend recommended, apparently tonal languages are quite phonetic but have less words because everything is dependant on the tone and inflection used. My teacher friend thought of Russian because it is a European in origin (apparently) but after listening to it, it sounds really hard to me!

The easy way to do it is to draw a number line. It will be difficult to illustrate here, but I'll try.

You draw a line with 0 in the middle, and numbers going up to the right and down to the left. Then it's easier to see which numbers are bigger/higher and which are smaller/lower.

I've been watching films all day with Beau (we got through the new Robocop, the Silence of the lambs, the crow and the crow 2) just on my way back from dropping him off at the station. I hate saying goodbye I wish we lived closer to each other. (I keep joking in going to kidnap him at some point ). My friends (and work collegues and seemingly everyone!)keep asking if he's going to move here at any point and tbh that's not a conversation we've had yet, we've only been together 3 months and after living with an ex I'm not in any rush to cohabit again

Aww, I'm sorry MU, saying goodbye is horrid. It is wonderful that you miss him so much, though. It shows how much you care for each other. Big hugs.

Thanks WaS, saying goodbye is the hardest part, though i know i'll hopefully see him again soon, i've had some holiday leave at work to use up before april so ive booked some time off in feb and march so will hopefully get to see him then. In the meantime there is always skype.

I do care for him very much, and i know he feels the same about me. He's loved and adored by all my friends too!
