It's entirely self-inflicted, so I have no sympathy (:D)

Mind you, when you said you were going out to get 'lashed'........ out here in the country we've heard about places like that!..........:D

only have myself to blame
but in my defence, i was meeting my cousin from Aus, who is only here for a quick flying 1 week visit, and it maybe sometime before i see him again...... so i feel it was infact my duty to drink with him as long as i possibly could !!!

lashings? in the country?
does it involve ginger beer ??

So IM, what's your feeling for today?
I'm teetering on transferring £10 / £15k over later today.
I've seen the magic 1.50 from TorFX and am awfully temped...

I don't actually NEED the cash for 2 or 3 weeks. (buying a car and can't pay > $10k as I don't have my social security number yet)

So, do I do it??

I just put Chelsea in my Sat Nav.
It came up with '2 minutes from Rome'

Chelsea are claiming they were robbed last night.
John Terry's mum denies any wrong doing.

Not entirely sure mate.
Its had a good run lately to get upto 1.51 in the markets.
Sure, there is some talk it can/should go higher, but all along you have said you were looking for the magic 1.50, and now you can see it......
