    To clear up a few facts-my OH was NOT a firefighter when we meet 14 years ago-he was a shelf stacker...

    And I don't chase anyone else, ok?










    They chase me! ;)

    Oh yum Bunny - I forgot your fella is a fireman :D

    My fella stacks shelves AND wears a uniform ;)

    Hahahaha.....well, despite being much in demand as a glamour model :p the article isn't for Nuts. :D It's for a womens magazine. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to say who, so I wont just yet, but as soon as I know when it's coming out, I will let you all know.

    I'm really worried about how we will come across now though. But the person who interviewed us said she would give us a ring once the article was written, to check we are happy with it, and she sounded genuine, and didn't try to push us into saying anything.

    Oh well, even if we come across really badly, we will still grin as we cash the cheque! :)

    Stu has a uniform now too... ;)

    Oh, for anyone who wears a uniform and has to wash it at home (ie your employer doesn't wash it for you), there's some sort of little tax rebate thingy you can claim. It's only a few quid but you might as well!

    Here's the thread that tells you how to do it - it's an old thread but I doubt if it's changed since then. I need to do it too.
