    I was awake at 5am too. Although I'm used to getting up at that time anyway. Makes it a long day when you don't have to go to work though.

    You keep plodding and I'll keep hopping :)

    Urgh to being awake at 5am - there's something about waking up at that stage that makes it doubly hard to get back to sleep.

    SA - Skate board, Box, Crutches as "punting poles". Might work? :D

    INOD your cider comment made me laugh! :rotfl:
