    No, no NO!!! Chocolate is ONLY poisonous if it doesn't have a 'smashing orangey bit'. The vitamins in the smashing orangey bit of a Jaffa Cake offset the damage caused by the chocolate, thus making Jaffa Cakes badness neutral.

    Or in other words, I have had had too much wine, am talking rubbish, and should really stop now! :o

  • aww lovely romantic meal...bliss & lovely! I agree with sea - very important fr reationships and sometimes you just have to accept that it may take you a while onger to get to DFD but you'll get there sane and still married! (sane in my case as I'm already divorced!!). Great that yu had a good chat to your dad. Mine died before I ever managed that so do cherish it...My garmin arrived this am...cant actually use it as still poorly but getting excited that I can! Just need to suss the instructions which aint easy with fuzzy head & no mathematical ability! Have a god run. How far do you go?

    Good morning again, I say that as i've had a lovely 2 hour sleep on the sofa!!! oops but lovely in the same time!!! :rolleyes: had a bit of a late night last night as i had a lonely best buddie texting me until 1am bless her but i think i managed to cheer her up!!! :T :A aside from that was a lovely nights sleep thanks guys.
    Sea a garmin is a satnav that is being advertised on TV right now, :eek: (to the singing voices!!) ISOM very impressed you have one!! I definately need one for my job but just not managed to stretch to it just yet, good ol map books for me!! :D

    ISOM, re Dad's i'm really sorry to hear that hon,:o Dad and I have had a really rocky few years and at one point we weren't talking at all. I even told mum if i never saw him again it wouldn't bother me, a truly evil thing for me to say and one that I am still trying my hardest to make up for. We are building bridges and I was sooo scared during the op that I wouldn't get chance to tell him how i really feel. But I have and it's a real heavy load off my shoulders and another bit of darkness lifted out of my life.:D
    As for the sperm donor that i've not seen since three, well I don't think i shall ever get or want the chance to build that particular bridge, some dogs are best left sleeping and i'm happy with that.

    Well on a DFW note, Payday is only 19 days away now. thats certainly made me feel better, then it is the long stretch to January. Doing very well with the finances this montha lthough i do have a couple of mouldy bills to pay, I should be able to find the money from somewhere for it.
    The petrol bill is currently standing at £110.26, leaving me just over a tank and a half that i'm not to sure i'm going to need. so it may prove that on a quieter month I can get by with lowering the petrol. :j more money for meeeeeeeeee:j


    I have also decided to look for another job much nearer to home....
    Although initially my commission will drop, I am currently spending £700 per month on petrol and mobile phone bills, not to mention the increase in gas and leccy for working from home, and I miss the office atmosphere to.
    The boot has never really fitted with my company esp with the male boss, the training and the support have just never really been there. So i'm going to start looking locally, knock the £700 pm on the head and that will absorb the loss in comission that i receive currently,
    I've worked out that I could realsistically get by on £1600 pm without this £700 and stick with my 15k target.:D

    Olive, no kitkats in a few days I am impressed!! and i'm not convinced re chocolate oranges.... ooooh you've given me a craving now and i'm trying to be soooo good!!:A
    Off for a run this evening, I'm only doing a few miles a day right now but that hopefully will go up to about 9 miles every other day by the time we hit january:eek: where i've been ill i am soooooooo unfit but really enjoying not drinking, not smoking, not having fizzy drinks, not eating chocolate:o only kidding i love it really cos it means i'll loose weight!!!!:j

    HI GTD how are you hon? good to hear from you not seen you in a while? Is the matched betting going ok?

    How is it i can write the dead sea scrolls on here yet when it comes to a normal diary it fades within 2 days!!:rotfl:

    Afternoon P, I'm back online at home at last! :j Glad to hear you had a lovely night :)

    Big decision about the job thing but from what you've said about it in the past, it sounds to me like it's the right one to make. Good luck with the job hunting! xx
