    Hi guys!:hello:
    How's everyone this Moanday morning? Hoping we're all safe and sound.sLo_grouphug.gif
    Just so you know that I empathise with you poor peeps going back to the coal-face today...

    And maybe a little antidote for a brekkie smile...

    The Wrinkled Nightgown
    A man and wife were celebrating their 50-year anniversary, so the man bought his wife a $250 see-through nightgown. Later that night she was getting ready for bed and realized the nightgown was still in the box downstairs. Walking naked through the house, she passed her husband who said, "My word, for $250 they could've at least ironed it!"

    Hello everybody! New and old
    I used to be a regular this time last year, so I hope some of you oldies remember me (Tiff, RBK, QB, Rose, Saz, CCS) I've not forgotten all the helpful advice you gave me through that difficult period. I sincerely hope everyone is doing fine.
    I am doing law at uni and things seem to be going ok. and before anyone goes "ooo posh" I can assure you that its at University of the West of England and thats hardly posh :p

    Me and OH got a kitten a few weeks ago, we called him Arthur and he is the light of our lives, we love him so much. i went away for a few hours yesterday to watch football and really missed him :(. he is going that ADORABLE stage of scratching me at 5:55am every morning.

    Hi Guys

    Had a good weekend. Had a sprinkling of snow over central Scotland, nothing dramatic.

    Had a good rest on Saturday and took our son on a whisky tour yesterday. Spent too much on whisky but we are leaving Scotland in 3 weeks, so being a tourist now. Feel a bit sad but have been here 15 years and there isn't anywhere I want to live here so saying goodbye, but can always visit again.
    An average day in my life:hello: :eek::mad: :coffee::coffee::coffee::T :o :rotfl: :rotfl: :p :eek::mad: :beer:
    I am no expert in property but have lived in many types of homes, in many locations and can only talk from experience.

    hi sazbo, you must have needed the sleep hun, hope you feel nice and refreshed after it. nothing planned for today, just tidying the house, and putting things up in loft, builder just rang, they are starting work on the house on thurs morning, hopefully it should only be two days work, then the decorating will have to begin.
    ccstar, glad to hear that you had a good weekend. never been to scotland myself yet, but have booked a holiday there for may this year.
