    Now now stewby have we met in "real" life, or were you just referring to me being a lonely figure on the thread last year?

    It was relating to the thread last year. I imagine we haven't met in real life... although you might not have noticed me, I would have been the one talking to myself in the corner, trying to avoid talking to people (I tend to be better at speaking in a virtual world).
    :o

    Hope you didn't take any offence.
    Hugs.

    Evening everyone

    Well done at keeping up with everyone on the thread AlwaysHappy your doing a grand job :D

    When I saw the posts about you talking to yourself it made me laugh - it was good last year you kept us all up to speed on your potting :D - it also reminded me of my OH he's usually mumbling something or other and when I say pardon or ask if he was talking to me he just says he was just thinking out loud or talking to the tv (especially if the footy is on) but then if I say nothing I get told off for not listening to him :rotfl::rotfl:

    Think I'm gonna have to go to the bank this weekend to get ahead with some £1 coinage - there seems to be a serious shortage in the meowhouse :(

  • I've put in my £1 and 10p coins for today. I think there is a shortage of £1 coins meowhouse. Ive been handing over notes every time I buy something hoping to get £1 coins in the change but no luck, I'm going to have to go to the bank also. Must be more people doing this challenge than we thought, all the £1 coins are being saved for Christmas 2015.

    Thanks Meowhouse hope MrCrimeFiction is having a good holiday - I'll be glad when he's back!! I'm ok at the welcoming and banter but anything complex re questions on the spreadsheet etc - I'm a technophobe!! Its funny - we are the only two apparently who have had problems viewing it!!!

    the.new.me - hello there - the spreadsheet is the creation of MrCrimeFiction so when he comes back from his hols he will send you access, I'm only holding the fort till he gets back, good to have you with us though.
