    Babysit a little kid... (5 year olds are good) That will keep you busy.

    I was gonna say have one but that will cost you a fortune

    Babysit? Helen? No freakin way!

    Do something interesting.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    1. dont get a pet, they cost you money.
    2. buy a £50 acoustic guitar and start learning Long Road (ok that cost money but its a one-off investment)
    3. start a course? perhaps in photography.
    4. dont get a pet.
    :) thanks all... I have found a local camera club and a writers circle... I'm gonna have to stop messing about and actually GO ALONG to them now I reckon :)

    p.s. dont get a pet though!! unless you want to use it as a means of getting time of work in the future :)
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    don't worry, I'm not getting a pet. My sister's currently trying to find homes for hers... 2 down, 1 to go and not looking good :( and I know how much trouble she's had with going away and shit like that... I also know how much they cost. Much as I love animals, I'm wayyyyyyy too selfish for a pet.

    Helen, I thought you were from Ireland? I ask just because I thought people in the dirty dirty were the only ones who 'reckon'.
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    I'm never bored, well how could I be with 4 kids! My greatest love is just getting out in to nature.....for me at home it is free because, I can just walk outside my house and go for miles. So that is what I do when bored, I don't watch too much TV and just too out of it lately to read, but if I have time, I get out and walk the dog in the woods 2X a day....I get to see all sorts of animals, like bears, deer, raccoons etc. And this time of year....the birds are all migrating...so I'm never with out my binoculars. OK.....ready to get out there? :D
