    Well, two days away and 4 pages into your new diary. How popular are you?
    Loving the fact you have a new diary. I missed you. Not read the 4 pages yet, will read later when I get back from the Dr's (bumpity bumps in car explained in my thread) but as it will take me several hours on the bus I may not be able to catch up until later today.
    Looking forward to reading about the fat balls (skimmed the thread) as I have been pondering this for a while.

    Oooh, lovely pic pippi! (made the thread go all wide though :rotfl:)

    Just had cake, and there's a possibility of cancelling our meeting tomorrow, which means I'll be able to work from home :D Saving me at least £12, and several hours of faffing around! :D Fingers crossed....

    Hi, glad i found you all again. Thought I was going mad when I couldn't find the thread. Snowed in too, working from home. Have lovely and very understanding new boss. Hope everyone is well.
    CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J

    Hello! You sound like you're trying to avoid the bird table magnetism :) and of course you're popular! The chilli thing above reminds me - I think what I've bought to try your experiment may not be a chili, just a long pepper :o I sound knowledgeable *sometimes* but I'm so thick most of the time its funny :rotfl:

    Off to my accountants once I've had a bit to eat, so I'll check what the local snow is (whether there is any!).

    Take care
