What about paying for a wedding......!!!!
Don't you flipping start! We are currently merrily living in sin. We are in the clear for the moment as my bro and his g/f are supposedly getting married when she turns 21 next year, after that who knows...

I mean we have only been going out for 7 years :shock:

For those who dont remember my 1st post, i was due to be married this year (June), but me and the other half mutually accepted that our 'cheap' wedding was far too much money to part with (around £15k!) :shock:

...so we upgraded the home to a bigger model and then the baby arrived ( :drive ) :lol:

im gonna try and fit in at least one knockhill this year, go on holiday somewhere hot (to make up for cancelling the maldives) and hopefully eventually graduate by finally getting the dissertation done by the March deadline :?

All the best to everyone else for 2007! :thumbsup

No - he's just going to replicate their business model.

Just a pity they don't realise that "return business" isn't someone coming back with the same complaint :D

2007 will be a year of working more for me - have a few things I want to do / achieve and they will only happen if I get the head down and the £ in.

Then maybe 2008 will be less stressed..... :wink:

My plans are pretty similar to yours John.

Stress less.
Be more simple and stand up for myself and say it as it is - i am far too diplomatic and try to not offend anyone. Thing is, i get walked over and end up not representing myself properly! Being a quiet guy, just having no hassle works for so long!

Get fit.
Meant to last year, but several things stopped me doing that.
Got a girlfriend and fell in love :P enjoyed that!
Had me elise - didnt use it enuff tho! lesson learnt!
Given more responsibility at work - now in charge of product development and have 2 people working under me (but no wage increase!).
All excuses tho - so this year i am going to the gym that i really like and will get rid of fatty Phil!!

Get a house.
So that i can get another lotus!!

2.help mum pay off mortgage

4.increase my post count on S_E :lol: ......considering this is about my 2nd post this year its not going well :lol:

5.get a lotus finally!!!
preferably exige s1 but we'll see

i'm already a gym junky so i don't need to make these get fit resolutions but hopefully i'll get training more in MMA(mixed martial arts) and possibly an amatuer fight within the next couple of years.
