Ok, to get rid of all this negativity, name something nice that happened to you today!

I'm reminiscing back to my student days by watching Dawson's Creek - what the heck happened to James Van Der Beek? (There's a name that should be in the silly name thread).

I had a good crap when I woke up ?

Started the "lasted only a week or so thread".

Came back from Africa.

Cant mention the other.

Chocs refused my offer to dine out so still starving.

Have you eaten yet Drew?
I do a mean fish finger sandwich if you're at a loose end. I don't mind being second choice

Damn BM missed that one.

Been single for weeks and dinners in house banned by me for lowest of standards.

-My favorite foottie team qualified for European football after more than 20 years. Hoping Cituuuuuuh!
-Bought more "Charley Sheen blouses".
-Ate raw herring with onion. This always makes me very happy!

What's your team FD?

I'm spending the day by the pool with my Ipod. Beth's still in bed and I don't intend to speak to anyone1 That sounds nice to me!

Yammi!

Don't knock raw herring, esp with that yoghurty sauce the Polish like to serve it up with - yum yum yum!

Qsaw te most amazing thing yesterday, was out with some friends wakeboarding in Abu Dhabi and as we came back in an entire school of dolphins decided to pay us a visit. Must have been about 10 in total, coming right up to the boat, didn't mind us being in the water with them and were actually playing about. One was really funny, lying on his back with bith pectoral fins in the air, mouth open, being a total show-off.

You can't pay to see things like that! Just amazing.

A pickled roll mop is the nearest I've been to a raw herring which is nice with a fresh salad, but I find them at their best when smoked and fried with a little butter.

happy Bday to the Junior guy Kan... 2 is the start of real joy with kids I guess...

Thanks! He's really a joy 4 yr olds are a whole other matter! Eeek!

I disagree Mahmoud, about 9 months is a nice age, then they should be put in a box and brought out again at about age 18. Children are vastly over rated. I'd rather have a BMW.

Give it serious consideration Mahmoud, a top of the range Beemer or a screaming brat. I know what I'd rather have

What about a top of the range Beemer with a screaming brat in the back?

Now, now people be nice. Kanelli is sharing her happy day with us. Show some interest will ya??

To be perfectly honest I rather be talking about cars than children, but hey, thats just me.

Oh BTW a very Happy B'day to the lil' rug rat K

Ahhh the start of the terrible twos!

Happy Birthday to the littlun' K

Only if it had a top of the range sound system to drown it out. (And a child safety seat with the British Kite mark to prove I was a jolly good mother).

Hi,

I spoke to my pops last night who's back in UK. I miss him loads. Had a nice warm fuzzy feeling after, but tinged with sadness

Thanks for the nice wishes guys.

You sound like a veteran Chocs. I used to think it was an old wive's tale.
