  • Blinking cold in Edinburgh - although no snow as yet. Cold bum on leather seats getting into the car so staying indoors for the rest of the day!
    Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!

    Persisting it down in Leeds (and darned cold outside). I went out for 15 minutes and was soaked through! Have to confess I've put the central heating on because even wearing thermals, fluffy socks, TWO jumpers, a scarf and a hat I was freezing! So cold outside the cats don't want to go out!

    ooh snow.....perhaps if we get enough of it, I can save my pennies and not send the kids out to France for the winter :rotfl:

    To keep warm, I have been doing housework.....how sad is that :o

    Wayne has said he wants to learn to play the guitar (not sure if he's wanting electric or acoustic) BUT he's determindly left-handed. Do guitars come in left- and right-handed models or does 'one size fits all'? When it comes to learning is it better to learn on an acoustic or on an electric guitar?

    Only reason I ask Asda is selling an electric one for £50 that I was tempted to get for him.

    Why the heck couldn't he be interested in violins or something that I know a bit about:confused:

    Well do people remember me saying that me CC credit limit has been reduced? Got a letter saying "Ermm...due to an incorrect system setting...ermm...we didn't mean to reduce it...ermm...we've put your credit limit back up...ermm...IT WAS ALL THAT COMPUTER'S FAULT!!"

    I believe I mentioned at the time certain "competence issues" that they had... :rolleyes:
