    :D yeah am fine thanks :A:A:A

    Just sad not to be with family at christmas ...plus that's the second car I have broken this week! Broke my car on Tuesday - skidded on a dual carriageway ended up facing wrong way with back of car smashed against central barrier:eek::eek: so son was driving us up to Liverpool- seems I only have to be in a car to jinx it these days!!

    We now have a total of three cars all broken- a record even for me!!!

    car one - sitting in my garage for over a year waiting court case against local garage

    car two (my third car in a year!) skidded and crashed 50 miles away - left it there with mechanic that is not coming back until 5th January!

    car three - towed back by RAC - front caliper stuck- all parts places closed until Monday

    And I let you drive me around without a safety helmet. :p:eek:

    Bloody love my friends and neighbours. Today I must have had about 30 peeps here, all with food and stuff. Pretty much all of them saying how much I'd given and saved them this year.
    I had a few requests to join them for Xmas day, but I think it's for family.
    They bought round so much, mince pies, cakes, cheese, tins of all sorts, basically loads of stuff!
    I kept telling them that I had quite a bit of food in reserve from all the glitches lately, so we're going to the local food bank on Tuesday with about 10 carrier bags full. :T

    I'm filling up scamps........people with big hearts......but you know what they say.....what goes around comes around......they are repaying your kindness:)

    Wasn't going to eat? Surely it's the 2nd biggest pig out day of the year :D
    I started with snowman cake for breakfast, Turkey with yogurt and mint dressing rolls for lunch (with cheesy footballs:D) and I've just scoffed a ham and salami selection with sun dried tomatoes, mozzarella and rocket alongside cuts of Turkey, pork and gammon with a side salad :D I'm pretty sure I've got room to squash in some trifle too :rotfl:

    I ate so much yesterday stinky.......then when I'd reached the point when I couldn't eat another mouthful, I opened a tin of Roses and ate half the tub:o

    Don't worry my child, take me to all the glitches and your car will be fine. ;):rotfl:
  • CS, you sound like you have the same effect on cars as I have on tills.

    If I am in a queue I no longer bother moving, something will happen to the till I am on one way or another.

    And a few weeks ago I managed to break one of those paying in machines they have in the Halifax :eek:

    Scamps, so pleased your neighbours obviously appreciate you so much :D

    02 priority - is there any hint as to how I can download the app please. Phone is locked to Vodafone, not willing to try unlocking it. At least I assume it is locked. Might find out tomorrow.

    When I try to download the app it refuses due to carrier.
