    Yes, but a nightmare to entertain at times! She's so old I sometimes wonder who's the mother :rotfl::rotfl:

    Are you me????? :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    DD and I were watching Desparate Housewives last night. She is so like Julie, Susan's daughter. I dont know where I got my sensible daughter from :confused:

    Does anyone have sky plus? My timings seem to be knackered with the clocks going forward. I've got a programme to record at 10.45, but its showing up as 9.45. It hasnt started recording yet. Its just far too complicated for me :confused::confused::confused:
