What is the matter with these people?
TBH I don't 'drink' often these days ~ alcohol and valium are a bad mix ~ but if I open a bottle it doesn't get the chance to go off. noooo:
The sequence is: 1, Open bottle, 2, Pour a glass full, 3, Tip wine down throat, repeat steps 2 and 3 until bottle is empty, place bottle the in recycling bin. Simples!

As mental christmas's go its been great. Purchased three fake trees lights x 3 baubles x3 prior to getting here. Any doubts that the children had relating to my sanity were finally dispelled.
I do christmas bags/stockings for nearest and dearest they contain bits and bobs collected during the year + sweets chocolates and cake.
Mr C has a son who is about the same age as my daughter one (25) Mr Cs wife died 5 years ago. This morning I received a Christmas stocking from Mr Cs son containing stuff relevant for me. I was very touched.

It gets better, 444 for 5 cloud9: I watched the last 15 minutes and the highlights, Ponting should be removed from the captaincy and the team, he'll probably resign the captaincy once they lose the ashes anyway, but arguing with the umpires like that at any level isn't on, what an example to set. "Bumble" called it right, time to bring in yellow and red cards

Right. I can now werk it. I found an Stephen King e-book (or e-novella in this case) on my hard drive wot I downloaded years ago and never read.
I find I like using it and it is comfortable to read for long periods though It will never replace real books etc etc.
