Congratulations Oddball and Nicki.... say, isn't the gown from some relation of Andy's shop? They have the same surname!

And good for you Nick and CPPF!! I'm sure you'll be very happy together!

Terrible the forums being down just when I wanted to get online last night. Anyway, to me, it appears that Oddball got the 10 000th post. With his signature post. Congrats again, Oddball!!

I posted a link somewhere up there ^ but I'll have a look again.
Amber killed me laughing (she's a dangerous lady) and then I was performing some sort of concerto for rattly chains.
Have you not wondered why I post so much? It's because I'm cursed to haunt the fora....

Must vary by area; I got the highest mark for grade 8 locally when I took it, and won £10 or so with an invite to a concert to be presented with what I'd bought. I couldn't make the concert though as it was during my end of 1st year exams at university.

I just hurt my back playing on the piano, my mum called me and I turned round so fast there was this cracking noise, it's got worse as well. I can't get up off the computer chair so I'm pretty much stuck her until I go to bed which would be a problem as well.

I'm not a whizz at science but didn't Einstein say that if you travel at a high speed then time slows down? Also, your brain has the ability to slow time or make it quicker, I think anyway... all in the theory of relativity.
