Well today I've been baby sitting, well looking after the youngest while daughter went to give blood then pick up the eldest from playschool. Only in charge for a couple of hours but it does mean it takes over most of the day when you add in the travelling there and back and the donor session being slow
I'm pleased to hear that your problem has been sorted out Kathryn, you are very lucky that you've only lost 3 teeth. I wasn't so lucky losing all mine in my early 20's through a gum problem. I had gas for that and I can tell you being in your early 20's and having to go around minus your teeth for 6 weeks is no joke.
Thanks, Jim. That must be the most well made, no BS commercial I've ever seen. Really nice. Although not a friend of blended whisky in general, I like both Green and Blue Label.
BTW, I've just had funny but interesting experience. An old co-worker works today for Microgaming, a company that makes casino software for online casinos. I was chatting with him, and as always, I was repeating my quite a negative opinion about casino business in general and the quality of software used in particular. As always, he tried to explain to me how the industry has come in terms with 21st century, offering (his words) "incredible gambling experience".
He gave me addresses to some of the online casinos using their software. After the chat, I asked the household CEO permission to invest €30 and try. Created an account in one of this casinos, uploaded funds, and played a bit. Nothing special, I would like to say; I still prefer a real life casino experience if I'd had an urge to play.
Was down to my last €5, and decided to finish playing by choosing the maximum bet on that slot machine I was currently playing, €2.50, to get two more rounds of spinning wheels. Pressed the Spin button, got some kind of bonus game that played itself a while, and then a window opened telling "Congratulations! You have won 3800 coins in Free Play!". I was playing with a coin value of 10 cents, so that means I had won €380! I was online on that casino total of about 40 minutes, so it was well worth of it.
CEO told me to finish at that point, so I went to Banking page and made a withdrawal. I do not trust these companies but let's see; if the money ever arrives, CEO is getting a nice evening with wining and dining.
Please notice: I am still against gambling and this kind of internet business. The above told should not be taken as a recommendation to play online with real money.

nice bit of luck kari, i always suspect these online casinos , i rekon they let you win as you neared the end of your credit to hook you ,chances are you would continue, loose the winnings and start chasing the losses . i dont gamble ,i cant afford to lose but i purchase one lottery scratch card each week in my local supermarket ,i use the supermarket as they have a high turnover of cards so the percentage of getting a winner as opposed to a corner shop who dont sell as many is greater ,because it cots me a pound a week i usually end the year in profit ,one year i won a few hundred pounds over the year.still i wouldnt mind a healthy jackpot win.
