True, true :D
I only asked about the dead friend of his trick because he said that he doesn't usually do it, and I wanted to know if he was lying or not. :) And the bell falling over was positively bizzare and seemed like a real mistake, not part of the trick. I guess it was all part of DB's great showmanship.

Heh.. know the feeling, but the Goatee thing made up for that :P
Btw, I'm willing to jump back onto the good ship NE, give me an email.

I found Budget to be quite good. Google for their web site.
Their prices can be very hit and miss though.
Really, I want to get my FirstDirect account sorted, first. I was supposed to ring them, like, 2 months ago after applying for an account, but, I've just been too pre-occupied with work and college and haven't really had the time (alone) at home.
I'll try and remember to do it later, once I've finished on here....
'Is it a Religion'? Funny, this reminds me of something...
Day after I found out about Kelly, I came into work, and when I sat down inside for my morning break, what was the first song that came on the radio (the station must have been set to RealRadio or something...)? It was that one that goes "If I were a Carpenter, and you were a lady, would you marry me [or something...]".
I find it so strange when things like that happen in life. It didn't help to make me feel any better, of course.
The amount of wierd things that happen when I simply look out the front window, though. I even did it this morning. I look outside, and then, someone comes walking past the house - it's like I can sense these things, or something...
It's also like how, at my old house, I would always do the same thing, and almost-always see (one of) Kelly's old cars driving past - even when I wasn't thinking of her [heh, not very often!].
I've even started seeing her new car everywhere, now, too. It seems while I'm in town or at college, in that area - I see the very-same car. Only, this time, I'm quite sure it's a different driver.
On Tuesday, on the way back from college, stopped outside of the local chippie to get a take-a-way. Look over to the post office, and who comes walking out (of the place she used to work at)? Yes... I mean, no, it wasn't actually her, this time - but, just for a second, this very-good-looking young lady did look like her.
Hmm. I guess I'm still not over her yet, then...
At least she's started to talk-to and achknowledge me a little more, again, at work, now. :)
Oh, and work. WORK! Please, don't get me started about work!! :@
I've gotta do it this week, anyway - my insurance and tax runs-out next Tuesday and I still haven't got any of it sorted, yet.
Tax will be no problem, but I'm still trying to sort out the other stuff. Currently, I'm with Tesco, and it would now only be £650 under my dad's name. However, I want to start my own, and cheapest I can find (via. www.moneysupermarket.co.uk) is for £1,100 with Direct Line. I'm still looking, really... Any suggestions?
Whatever happens, I am NOT going with this 4 New Drivers company. EVER! According to the search I did, it'd be around £1,800 with them - a good £600-more than the next cheapest!! :P

Is it a religious thing? :^)

And no more lessons until right before the test?
I would have said don't bother driving any car but the one you'll take the test in, but it might be worthwhile just to keep your hand in.

Have you tried monthly disposables? If so how do you think they compare to dailys?
