Ya know what Pacey - I'd love to but I have the small matter of a 20,000 word dissertation to finish by the 9th of May. And I've got a brand new block of wax just sat there waiting..............

Any other Podiatrists on here or singles northern lasses around my age? Im from manchester.
Hi michelle, I'm just a smidge older than you, going it alone and currently in warrington. Welcome to TOLT - you'll have fun here.

Alright loners!

Welcome brit Good luck with all the visa process and enjoy the ride.

Right, i have nothing to add tonight but thought i would check in and say hello,

Hope everyone is ok? Fizz, FIZZ! I think she comes and goes as she pleases

Good eveing Pony, You been riding again?

Whos going surfing? I can only body board but no good at that either

Some news for you all, i have my vetassess practical in two weeks and my IELTS in three so busy revising for it

Anyway, i will be hanging around tonight as loners usually have no one to go out with so staying in. Feel free to chat

No I have not been riding I have been doing my IELTS as well you know (said in a very Eddie Izzardy styley). Pacey is off surfing instead of buying a suit - I've got a block of wax but cant use it as too busy! I'm rubbish at it too - only just learnt to stand up. Can go for miles on my knees though............er........leave it!
