Going by the example with the first clue Tan I just followed that format and found it fairly easy :rofl:  It took me less than 2 hours and that included a cig and drink break and also my Domino decided it was supper time at a different time to my break, and at the moment am laid up with a chest infection. :(

Look are you STILL bragging!! :P :naughty:
Sorry to hear to are poorly Ellen xxx

No not bragging just shocked that I did it so quick lol

I found a couple really hard actually. No one likes a show off Ellen. :P


 :rofl:

Was expecting it to be harder than it actually was with me not being here for that long  :P

In truth I think the more you have read the threads previously the harder it becomes, for example I am stuck looking for a little cat that I hand reared I know his current name, I know his previous name but which thread I am lost as he is on so many  :rofl: I am going to savour this and make it last a few days anyway  :rofl:
