Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Although still very painful I must admit I can already feel an improvement in my hand.

As it's still less than 24 hours since your operation I would say that it's been a success then.
As long as there isn't a reason not to do so I have been told to tell you to allow your self some painkillers to help you over the next couple of days, .... advise courtesy of my sister in law who had the operation earlier this summer and is due to go back for her other wrist to be done in November.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Just had a phone call to say our friends have just driven across the border from Spain in to France so they expect to catch the ferry tomorrow morning. I can't believe its been 6 months since we last saw them.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Had a voucher from Amazon for £20 in May after they messed my order up and I complained, so they sent it as a goodwill gesture. I don't really use Amazon for anything so I kept hold of it.
My Kaspersky AV was coming to an end and I thought about renewing when I noticed Norton were doing 30-day beta trials of their 2012 Internet Security so I decided to download that instead and have been using it for a few weeks, pretty happy with it.
The other day I decided to go with Norton but the 12 month licence was £40 or so and I couldn't justify that so I used the voucher to buy NIS 2011 instead which was very similar and offered good protection.
It arrived today, all good and no problems. I registered on the Norton site and looked through their forums and it mentioned free upgrades for some people.
I went through the options on my new 2011 version and it took me straight to the 2012 download section. It installed, accepted my serial key and now I have 12 months of NIS 2012 for free, a saving of £40

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
Sorry I have not been on for a while
Been trying to lose weight I was 14 & a half stone but after 3 & a half months of walking between 5 & 10 miles a day I am down to just under 11 stone.
I thought about a exercise bike for the winter months when the weather is unfit for walking looked at a few and they where pretty expensive.I was in Tesco's yesterday and noticed one for £50 on offer for £40 so I decided to get it.I took it to the check out and the lady said that will be £15 please.I said are you sure it says £40 on the ticket.She said well you have a bargain then it's only £15

My happy thought, spent a great few days (apart from the weather) in the Lakes last weekend.
Stayed at Dale Head Hall.
Great welcome & fantastic (although expensive) meals.
Family run place that used to be the summer residence of the Lord Mayor of Manchester. The owners rescued it when it fell into disrepair and have turned it into a fantastic quiet haven...
