Hello Grin

Yeah, Jetcat, maybe differentiating between 'iTunes' and 'the iTunes Store' is helpful.

You'd put the CD in the laptop, and then import it into iTunes.

When you want to get stuff you don't physically own, you go to the iTunes Store online. That's where you find podcasts, audio books, apps, singles and albums. Some are free and some you pay for.

You click on them and they are also imported back onto your iTunes on your computer, which is where you manage them, and decide what you want on your iPod Touch for the day, or week, or whatever.

Hells how lovely to see you Smile. Poor DD.... no out of date stuff in my fridge Wink.

No, I don't think she will leave him. She has lived in a place in her head for a very long time, and he is very emotionally controlling. Oh God this will sound so awful but I don't want her to 'go' first. Sad. I want her to have some years to be the lovely lady she has buried inside. She asked me what to do with all the stuff if anything happens to him (he is a horrendous hoarder and his business is as it was when he stopped running it nearly 20 yrs ago, I said to just walk away from it all and start afresh. I told her To move to her city of birth and be half way between me and my bro... so sad.

I don't use an ipod Jet but have a phone that has a fabulous media centre on it.... definitely go for it.. Smile music makes me very happy...

Lol at shiney having a long coat..dodgy geezerette Grin with sachets of Lemsip spilling from one pocket due to perpetual illing Wink.

DD has nearly vomited with coughing on the way to school, poor baby. She seemed so much better so I suspect it was her asthma.. I can't really carry her anymore.. school are excellent though...

Hells- not only that but the cold kills gthe wasps, slugs snails and other beasties that the darling mucky one would otherwise find far too many of and collect in jars from which they escape

Thanks mittz -I hope your mum's condition is easily controlled.

Tired this morning but must crack on with stuff :( There is just so much to do i am not sure where to start. the stuff that i did a gfew days ago but needs doing again or the stuff that has been waiting to be done for forever?

Gigantaur · 22/09/2010 11:34

thank you all for the lovely birthday messages.

a Shiney thread podcast would be soooo cool!

mittz i hope your mum is ok, is there some medication that will control the condition?

I too laughed at Jet's memememe and then asking what on earth it was. Grin

I am just taking a few minutes between work to see if a poster had come back online so i could play supermner and go save her.

Off to pizza hut for tea tonight. I would like to promise to be good and eat salad but i'm sure i wont.

Can't wait for DS to get home from school so i can watch him open his pressies. i am a meany who makes him wait until after school before he gets them.

OuchPassVodka · 22/09/2010 11:50

He is allowed one small present once he is dressed/eaten breakfast and brushed his teeth.
the rest dont even get seen until after school.

There is no way we would get him on his bus if he had a room full of brand new "stuff" to play with.

Plus it gives him more to look forward to through the day.

Glad im not the only meany Grin

Gigantaur · 22/09/2010 12:03

well done helping with the DLA forms.
They are my worst nightmare. Thankfully George's only need filling out every 3 years but i have had to help with a couple through work. They are soul destroying.

money sent shineySmile

Re dla, i am sitting trying to finish off juniors, just need the "anything else you want to tell us" section doing, so if you fancy giving me a few pointers - feel freeGrin

OuchPassVodka · 22/09/2010 12:21

Is the davinci code worth sticking out. its not grabbing my attention but has only been on abut 5 mins if that. Do i continue watching or hit the eject button and watch something else?

Jet can you fb your address for sending that skirt please.

hellsbelles · 22/09/2010 12:28

OUch - I seem to remember it does get addictive once you are past the first few chapters.

Fair play shiney! I am rubbish with texting. What a lovely lovely thing to do helping out with the forms. Bet they were so chuffed having you do that.

Mitts - it doesn't sound awful in teh slightest. I completely uderstand.

gigi - enjoy enjoy! And yes I too am a meany and insist on prolonged opening of presents. I seem to recall the anticipation was half the fun when I was little and I think it makes it more fun!

VinegarTits · 22/09/2010 12:35

afternoon

happy birthday mini Gigi!

BOF what a nightmare about the resturant, if its any consulation, i get like that if someone moves my vodka drink

The effing traffic this morning was horrendous, lorry on fire on the m6 took me 1 hr 40 mins to get to work Shock

Have you told them about her homework Jet? And about how hard it is for her to find clothes she likes and can manage? Can't think of anything else off the top of my head.

When ds1 went to Spain the other week, he forgot to turn of his wifi on his iphone, so everytime he picked up a wifi signal he got charged, it amounted to £40 in the end Shock
