    Congratulations IA, I hope there are lots of bargains for you and being as fantastically fervent as you are I'm sure you will make the most of the opportunity. Go girl!!!
    Just remember good comfy shoes are a MUST if you work in a shop.

    Thanks you lot, he's not home for good, just the weekend. I have nailed everything down that can be eaten, smoked or sold! Except Chloe......

    He wants to spend crimbo with us too. He is still working as an apprentice builder and starts a plumbing and bricklaying course in a couple of weeks. He now smokes, but then when you pinch that many fags you have to do something with them:rotfl: :rotfl: but I think he has stopped the wacky backy.

    He actually looks and says he is happy, I asked him if he would come home if I asked him and he said no. He is having a good time....:rotfl: (Thank god for that, not sure I could cope with the strain) and he has saved up about £300 for a deposit on a flat. He is living with a friend and her mum :confused: who is a lot more liberal than me. (I used to think I was quite a funky mum, but I am not sure any more).:eek:

    Ste, I would tell you about fag gate, but I wouldn't want to risk the wrath of the minority! Lets just say it involves illegal smuggling and theft on a minor scale......

    Don't you lot ever stop partying? :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I've got a bit of a hangover this morning, thanks to a combination of England's BRILLIANT victory over the French and a 'fridge pack' of Tetley's Smooth Flow Bitter, so please forgive me if I sound a bit grumpy.

    Hi Sammy, I was wondering what 'fag gate' was. I was thinking maybe he had told you he was gay and it had caused some tension. My other Son who is 18 in Dec has had similar problems with his Mother and he still continues to pose me some problems..... Hope you are well and things continue to go well. Len xx

    Hey Rog, I'm not an egg chaser but I made a point of watching it with a couple of beers and got well into it. Great victory and not having the first idea about Rugby, can they win it?

    It will be VERY difficult, Len, especially if South Africa are the other finalists. They have already wiped the floor with England, although it was a completely different team last night.
    I think they have done well to get to the final, considering just how disfunctional they were just six months ago, but, as they say 'The party's not over till that fat bird sings'.
