    I've got to agree on the chocolate addiction, mainly white, the only thing is the after effects of eating it, feeling so hot and headachey plus feeling sick if i was ever to eat too much of it wink

    I also watch more films now with the odd, 'ohh, never see that bit before' or 'never noticed that before' but i think it maybe the memory thing..

    I also watch more films ...........................wink
