Hi all, Bibi ducks great to see you! We had similar cash machine thing here a few weeks ago, similar loony behaviour and no they didn't get to keep the money, surprise, surprise! Though have not read salta's link yet.
LOL at race, sounds like an excellent one! I think if there were more feather boas involved I'd be generally more interested in athletics.
I saw riven's dd on the front of the Guardian yesterday (or was day before?) - let's hope something comes through for her, and others in similar circs. Agree re. DC!
Great theatre trip last night, saw B rian D enne hy in The Field, plus nice dins with lovely friend, freezing blardy cold today and still fluey so trying to think of something to do that's low key for me and stimulating etc blah blah for ds2. think will just meet a mate for a coffee (cop out).
Are gradually breaking news all round re getting spliced, to lovely reactions and a lot of (fondly meant) (I think) "so you are finally getting round to it, are you" ha merry ha etc. I love people sometimes. They are so NICE! 
Yours, Bridie.
