      Just a small warning!

      I have spent my afternoon sitting in the cinema watching......Alvin and the Chipmunks!

      My kids loved it, I actually fell asleep, and almost impossibility in a cinema as it is so loud.

      Made the mistake of running through the films our local cinema had and read that one before thinking.

      I have seriously now lost the will to live. Not a Brad Pitt or George Clooney in sight just 3 squeeky chipmunks that do, quite literally sound like someone has grapped them by their nuts!

      A pleasure, like to think I have saved someone. It was the last showing today so I assumed it would be empty but it was full. My kids loved it. Best to watch it on DVD then at least you can leave the room.

      That was the plan lol - I can't think of anything worse than having to listen to the chipmunks screech through an hour and a half.

      Ha Ha Ha - That was very funny Claire!! Thanks for that, although I am sorry that you had to sit through that! I suppose if it keeps the kids happy for a couple of hours...

      Hi Claire
      Brad has grown out of that thank god, but I went to town today with him and all the way round he was 5 yards ahead. The only time he was near to me was when I was paying for his £70 trainers. I would rather go and see the chipmunks , alot cheaper and I could have a nap...lol

      If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place...
      If you get a chance,take it, If it changes your life,let it. Nobody said it would be easy they just said it would be worth it...

      Cheers
