    I don't particularly care about the football it is only a game after all. (I am wearing a flak jacket as my colleague has a different view)

    But I'm having my own rubbish day. Phone bill is £600. _pale_ I thought I'd checked what it would be a couple of weeks ago, but the "balance" texted to me was just what my previous bill equalled.:o

    £600 = what we budget for flights to see each other (me & popeye) He can't make international calls, and I've e-mailed him to say I'm not going to call him ever again. :cry:

    We got them off ebay.. £4.50 for 2 inc postage. Didn't even realise they did them in home bargains... they're scary as hell though.

    look at them.. staring at me with their beady little eyes and blank smiles.... the orange one is planning something.. I just know it... I reckon they've got tiny little knives tucked in there somewhere.. rusty ones I bet!

    Thanks for your help guys, but as they say out there TIA, and the internet thingy (Skype) was due some weeks back but......we're still waiting (don't get me on transferring money either :mad: )

    I thought I was getting a bargain on my mobile, or I'd have Skype'd to his mobile from the home (infected) computer. It's just I didn't realise for 6 weeks what I was really spending.:eek:
