    Morning all.
    Hope everyone is ok.

    It's piddling down here (again) I'm so bored of all the rain we've had recently. I got so wet on Friday biking to work that I had to run into T's to but some emergency trousers :rotfl:

    Bananababe - happy belated birthday hun x

    Fair Claire - love the dress, I could quite happily live in 'Coast' dresses they always look and feel amazing.

    TInyshoes- never heard the expression tarts trotters before :eek: but I love the shoes.

    Underperky- your gwandma stories always make me smile. She sounds like a little poppet x

    PD- seriously awesome cakes!!!!!!! Bet your mates where hysterical when you uncovered the chicken :eek::rotfl:

    Question is - do you get them now or next year - the price could go up :eek::D

    I had the form for ages and what spurred me on was when I found out the the price went up :eek::( And now the price is ridiculous for a passport :(
    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.

    Morning folks :)
    Just caught up on the last lot of pages, had to skip quite a few. Been very busy over the past few days.
    Had a great evening on the 11th, surrounded by loads of lovely Scots with very nice accents and 1 very irritating one who I nearly put through a window :eek: :rotfl: I forgot just how much I love Scottish accents. We also had a few Canadians, Americans and English folks there too, just missing the Welsh. I didn't get home until well after 3am :eek: and still feeling it this morning. I can't blame it on drink because I don't touch alcohol but yesterday I slept until 10am and today I feel like pulling the covers up and blocking the world out, if only I hadn't agreed to taking them out today.
    Anyway my pain's come back :mad: so think I overdid it so have to be very careful and dope up on pain meds, but not the really good ones or I'll not be driving anywhere today :(
    Hope everyone has a great Sunday whatever you're doing x

    Apparently she is getting £100000.00. Bizzare and when her 15 minutes fame finished hope she does not find it easy getting back on benefits. Is that !!!!!y or honest?
