I've been thinking about this... (I need help I admit it!) ;o) I think we should have our Chinese at 08:08 this evening on the 08/08/08 08 08 08 08 08 That looks pretty I can relax now. :O) Will try and do 8 minutes on Wii Fit Boxing, 8 minutes on Wii Hula Hooping and perhaps 8 minutes on Wii Stepping? Changing the topic completely - anyone else like Sandi Thom's new song - is it called "Only one Saturday night in every week"??? Sunday's for recovering 5 days for discovering Only one Saturday night in every week Why won't the world stop spinning around? :O) |
