    I can do this late afternoon if no one tries before then. I'm at an appointment that's within sniffing distance of a Morries.

    Savvy........we have had a heated discussion in my house this morning (not for the first time either) on whether a certain word is appropriate to use in everyday conversation :D I say it's not but I'm being increasingly beat down by the kids who think it's ok and I'm being old fashioned :rotfl: I can put the word in question on here and it won't get censored :p :rotfl:
    So the word is 'screwed' as in 'if Mum sees that you are screwed':cool: I don't like it it at all but all I seem to have done is sparked a debate over whether it's a 'bad' word or not. And no I'm not going into the context of it with three gobby teenagers :eek: :rotfl:

    [EDIT: I've decided to PM you, as I felt it more appropriate there.]
    If I get numerous requests (from different people) asking me to repost my discussion, then I will do so.

    [EDIT 2: Nah, I don't need to edit or shorten your OP when I quote it. But the fact that I even think about doing so...:think:.]
  • OMG you do like your pop SFSB! I hope you get refunded as I've never yet got a refund on anything sent back via CC. Don't want to rock the boat by them looking into my account so have always taken on the chin.
    I need something to add to the vodka..:rotfl:

    I will come back later (or at least I intend to) as I have things to sort in RL but I was originally just now coming onto this thread not to post a money-related thing although I then ended up doing so:rotfl: but instead to post a song together with my usual diatribe about how the radio is rubbish these days and my presentation of statistic evidence of airplay to order to back up my approach:rotfl: - you know I like stats.:D

    By coincidence, I think this:

    [SIZE=+0]Today's Topic (Thursday): Music 1 : Easier
    [/SIZE]

    which, after all, isn't a money-related post (as far as I can see) provides justification for me to post, unless I've taken that detail out of context and misunderstood!

    Back later though - good afternoon:).

    Even though the rules say we shouldn't put in PM what we wouldn't post:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.

    I think one of those "anomaly" areas though - delightful anomaly created by NTs:rotfl:. I did originally post it all on here so not something I would completely ban from posting, just I felt it was 'better' done by PM.

    Posting to let you know I am alive and well currently ensconced in a large cabana on the deck of our cruise ship. Sea day today and port tonight.
    Sorry for my tardiness all photos have been taken but I have had very little time to get online while in vicinity of wifi. Either in port or asleep so today paid a few pennies to catch up on my emails while at sea.
    N has been posting for the both of us usually when I have been napping.

    Have had a truly wonderful time and totally converted N to the cruising life style.
    We have had a whale of a time and a really good giggle.

    Mhoc once I am home Saturday I will post one photo a day until you work out the ship, cruise, ports and cabin number.

    Off to have a proper catch up and try to access my by email.

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)

    just bumping this up for anyone who is going to Morribobs today and wants to do an experiment :j.

    I bought a bottle of each to try it. Got home and notice that I only got 2500 points. Will be going back to store to check on this. No signage up about More Piints on either shelf.
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    How lovely to hear from you, been enjoying N little updates! Glad you're both having a great time. Looking forward to the pics so we can work out where you've been. Cruising is fab! Health being well I'm hoping to do 2 next year, one of which is a transatlantic. Can't wait! :)

    Thats interesting...I'd written this one off earlier as it seemed to be an online offer....now possibly not so sure and I've left it too late to pop to M this afternoon to test it....lets hope the points might still be available in the morning when I next drive by.
