That's awful Denise. i dont understand what is going on with ebay at the moment. they seem to be pulling everyone left right and centre for single words used, 
Aww well done Lynne. how exciting 
ohh he is so much fun !! well done great job
LOL very good.. i also agree with the 2nd 
OOhh Shari that is AWFUL!!!! why arent you allowed to donate to the hurrican on your own ?? it's upto you what you do with the money off sales... :twisted:

Please be careful ladies that the emails you are getting are NOT spam emails, always log into your account and goto your Inbox in there. anthing legit will be there !!
Do you think someone is scouring the bear artist listings and turning everyone in or somethin?? seems to happen alot lately, 
ebay doesn't let you outbid yourself so she must have put the 0.99 bid on and then thought "oh i will put some more on incase someone tries to outbid me"
it never used to add the bids like that until recently. if you increased your maximum bid it just increased it and didn't add to the bid history. but it does now. !! :D
i cant see the point in it. 
Oooooo what a CUTIE!
the person who put the first bid on has just increased her maximum bid hence the "3 bids"
i use Paint Shop Pro you just open your photo crop and chop. add text etc. it's really easy once you know how!! but id imagine any paint programme would do. but you get different effects with diffrent programmes
Ohh Jane that's awful
Wow that is wonderful
I thought i would have double my usual chocolate intake today to make up for lost time over the past few days, and they did say Chocolate was kind of good for you 
Oh Mandie 
i think that could be the red wine hehehehe !!
Oh Pipa you poor girl you...hey! what about a large glass of good red wine, not food but it might numb the pain :pray: it's not funny I suffer greatly with blocked sinus and i walk into doors ( or am I drunk ) LOL anyway it's not funny it makes me feel sick and dizy and it drives me up the wall! only ever had it when I moved from Kent which is very dry to a very wet N Ireland..poor doggy has he been out for a walk or is he sitting with his legs crossed?
Hugs Mandie

I lso fray check every fabric regardless of wether it's synthetic. schulte or german mohair or alpaca
Oh Penny !! get yourself booked into an NHS dental hospital.. mind you. in those places it's more like a torture chamber than a dental examination room, you also end up getting fobbed off with the students using your gums to further thier knwoledge which is a bit scary ,
20,000 my goodness i would have fainted on the floor. my GP offers botox for £400 a go
1 experience i had with a dental hospital (yep here comes another one hehe) I was laying in my chair with this dentist telling me i ate too much steak (which i answerd with a laugh and informed him i couldnt afford to buy steak) Hmm, anyways in walked a group of 6 students all having a good peek and pointing at my xrays going ooo and ahhh and then one of them went "oh what's that?" and pointed to something on the xray and the dentist hushed her and said "thats nothing".. i never did find out what that student saw.. maybe it was nothing
As for my dribble :redface: it's great now. whatever was blocking it must've passed :dance: now i can continue drooling over chocolate again :cake: (thanks for the cake smiley whoever made it)
Hmm thas a toughy. most ISP's provide webspace for free with your account, Bravenet i have used in the past but it depends if you are paying for it or using the free one. the free one gives you annoying pop up windows which drive people insane alot of the time apart from that i don't know, i always paid for any website hosting i used !
20,000 Oh Jeeze. what were you gonna get for your 20,000 ? a whole new set of Gnashers like what the movie stars have ????
Well you could always revert back to the method my ole mother used to use on me as a kid. a piece of toilet roll wrapped around the tooth and a sharp tug got my wobbly teeth out and didn't cost a penny .. oh apart from the scrap of toilet roll which is nowhere near 20,000 :P
a porsche ? WOW! My Dentist looks like he just got out of short trousers, kindly informed me that he goes camping (looks like he just crawled out of his tent on some occasions), his hair is like a flyaway birds nest and he surfs but he's a star ! one of the best dentists i've ever had. a bit nervous tho. he took an xray of my teeth once and bashed the small plastic thing they shove in your mouth into my gums with his knee. he did apologise tho so that's one up on Dr.s !
Oh dear. i do hope we dont have any lawyers.estate agents. Dr's or dentists in the group :redface:
thanks for all the tips too on sewing on eye patches everyone !!
AWW what a cutie pie !!!!!!
Gosh i am SO pleased your mother was okay after the Cancer ! Lucky she insisted on seeing the specialist !! that's the trick is being persistant!!! Oh my. she even had a history of it. you would think that would be the first thing they checked for. :shakes head:
as much as i dont like any Dr's i have more faith in hospital ones too , i'll figure something out if it keeps happening :D
AWW hehe sorry to hear you dont like dentists, they are one people i dont have a problem with hehe
Mum was ok that time - yes, they caught it in time. She got fed up of the antibiotics and insisted on seeing a specialist, who made the diagnosis (she had a prior history of cancer too, so wouldn't you think that might have rung a few alarm bells?!). Geeze.
I'm with Penny. If your glands get really bad it might be better to take a trip to the A&E. I havemore faith in hospital doctor's myself, because they generally get more contact with a wider range of ailments. More 'hand's on', especially in A&E. I know you've had bad hospital experiences too, though...
(As for dentist stories, nothing too bad to report - I just don't like 'em,
PENNY you are making my ribs ache with laughing so much ! :angel:
Oh yeah they defintley deserve a bunch of fives. many years ago now my mother threated to put him through the window once after yet another bad episode that landed her in hospital with blood pressure so low they couldnt read it
Actually one of them (there is more than one they are all hapless) one is due for retirement soon 
saying that tho. his replacement is the one that told me to get out if i didnt like what i was hearing haha ! ahhh. we've replaced one bad coin with another . EEK!
Our Local ER department is too far away to get too i took my brother there once and they said "if you keep coming here all you will get is MRSA" seriously. i said "he's only been here once. 28 years ago when he was born. 
oh boy did that Dr get a rollocking from me that day, i took her out the room to one side and CALMLY put her in her place, that felt good! might have to try that with our GP :twisted:
I'm beginning to wonder if i live on another planet.. am i really an alien living an illusion of earth perhaps.. Hmmmmm :/
Nurses uniforms huh ??
