    It will serve me right if I suffer 'consequences' tomorrow IYKWIM :rotfl: Glad that you are feeling better Toto but it must be so frustrating for you when you can't play. Will you need physio when bandages come off ? How long do they estimate before you can play ?

    Hi all!!

    Toto the song you linked to is fab... listened to it just before a meeting and caught myself humming it half the way through!! :D Glad you are feeling a bit better too.

    Argh... dreading going home today... my computer is ill and possibly terminal :eek: I just hope it lasts long enough to get my stuff backed up properly as the last backup is a wee bit elderly now :o Worst thing is if I can't get into it I'll have to redo all my budgets again and won't have a clue if I have enough pennies to get a new cheap comp!! :mad: :eek:

    Still blue skies and piercing sunshine - sunglasses definitely needed for driving.

    mmm Jaffa cakes they're Snags Favourite too . They seem to have been bogof a lot of places recently waaay too tempting. I have been known to scoff a whole pack of those in one go too ! Greedy - moi ? :rolleyes: I can never understand people who can open a box of chocs and just eat one or two . What gives you the idea I'm lacking self discipline ? :D

  • hi guys... hope you're all well...

    quick question, if your partner / hubby was to be best man for someone do you think it's approriate for him to say

    ' I am confused about this whole 'best man' title... surely, if I'm the best man, then why is Kate marrying John and not me?'

    Do you think that's funny or a little bit odd???
    I can't make my mind up :confused:

    I did January without alcohol. Got given 8 bottles of wine too!
    Somehow I don't fancy the stuff now (I suppose it is a little early at the mo :o) I shall have to work hard at getting my appetite for booze back.

    I think we have a gingerbread house too. Probably needs doing before the end of February.
