Stevo985 Posted November 4, 2011 Author VT Supporter Share Posted November 4, 2011 Er'indoors is working nights tonight, little dude goes to bed around 7:15 so ive got to fend for myself.

That would be a good night in That's basically how I spend every night After getting married and having a child I'm lucky if I get to spend a combined total of 30 mins a week doing all 3 :-( I'm lucky if I spend a combined total of 30 minutes NOT doing all three Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buggered if I know any of the rest ....Really? The last one is rather complex, admittedly, but the rest seem pretty straightforward to me - especially once you've twigged that there's a unifying theme.

CI Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 "Several" people were killed and up to 35 injured in a 27-vehicle crash on the M5 near Taunton, Somerset, police say. Officers said the crash, which happened close to junction 25 northbound at about 20:30 GMT on Friday, led to "one massive fireball" at the scene. Emergency crews said the cause of the crash was not clear, but there had been reports of heavy rain and fog. Avon and Somerset Police have released a helpline number for people concerned about relatives: 0800 092 0410. The stretch of motorway is due to remain shut in both directions until at least 12:00 GMT on Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
