    Oh dear. Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. marmite, give Mrs Doyle one of your extra strong valiums! Pass me a sick bucket...

    Fabio, whatever were you thinking of? You might have the body for one of those, but Igor?

    For those of you who missed Igor displaying his new swimsuit......it was something I think they call an asymmetrical thong...where one side is missing and you wonder how on earth it stays in place.......

    AKA the poor man's mankini.....

    I just hope that Cheffie doesn't want one now.You know how competitive he and Igor are.

    Thanks. Yes, this has been a high spendy month for me. 2nd back up account has taken a knock. February I'm going to go for a very high NSD to help compensate for this month.

    Some months are like that..... :(
