Belated Happy Birthday Hazel!

Hi Cheryl...........Hazel says thanks............

Let it slide mate it's only another £30....

Yeah, and you don't have the luxury of the 0% on the Disney Visa. I probably would have let it slide as well.

You figure we have about 2 more months until it has to be paid. Then at least another month until you have to pay your credit card, so lets call it 3 months.

$60 over 3 months is equal to the interest on approx. $7,400 at 3.25%. If your balance is over that, you're better off holding.

If we figure you could stretch the final payment to the credit card company to 4 months (depending on the timing you cycle and when the pay in full date is), it would only be about $5,500 for the threshold.

Hi Cheryl.

How've ya been? Long time no talk/see.

Hi Jeff I'm OK how about you? I've seen you more recently than I've been on here. Rach told me there is a Who's going at Christmas list and that Karen is now going and you and Andy are both on the maybe list. Come on you guys join us at WDW for Christmas!

 

[JLDSMD]

You took it correctly, and trying to warm up a bit as well.........

What kind of temps are you having out there today?

 

[Cheryl N. WI]

Hi Andy and Chris

 

[Verandah Man]

My sweet bride is down in bed with whatever is making the rounds, poor thing is all stuffy and losing her voice(which might not be a bad thing....) for Angelina and I.........

I also told her to stay away from me, looks like Chicken Noodle soup and grilled cheese sandwiches for dinner tonight........

Hi Cheryl

e=mc (squared)

a (squared) + b (squared) = c (squared)

Numbers Boy, got anything else?

Is that what you call them over there? We just call it the postman.

(sorry, after 9:00 humor)

- cheeky! - I want a new back door (Neils in bed anyway - night shift )

"e" equals mc^2

"pi"r^2= circle area
2"pi"r= circle circumfrence (sp?)

1/2b*h=triangle area

PV=FV/(1+i)^n (present value)
PVA=A/i * [1 - 1/(1+i)^n] (present value of an annuity)
FVA=A * [(1+i)^n - 1]/i (future value of an annuity)


Or you could just put a financial or engineering calculator in his pocket protector. I have my dad's old slide rule, but don't think I can get it there by Friday a.m.

Thanks folks - all sorted now

That you have. Hope you had a good time on Sat night. How was your first game? Sorry if your nose bled.

As for WDW at Xmas, it depends on who in our family you talk to. If it is Suz, we are on the Definite list.

Although, we will only be doing 1 day in WDW and it will be at the MK.

We'll probably come down for about 5 nights, but I'm looking at the price of hotel ON the beach in Clearwater and they are only about $160+ a night. We may spend a couple nights out there as well.

Plus, we may go in and out of Tampa again. Seems easier than MCO (cheaper too).

We probably won't stay on WDW (unless some DVCers want to sell some points - what are the number of points needed at that time?). We are looking at LBV (DTD) area and I-Drive. I think this will be more so a get some sun and visit with our great DIS friends trip.

Garden man just arrived! - get ready to catch me when I FAINT

 

[Verandah Man]

What kind of temps are you having out there today?

When I woke up at 5am the temp was 58* the last I checked, I think the temp had dropped to about 46* but the winds are kicking around at about 25mph...........

Hi Andy and Chris

I still think it would make more sence just to pass over my life saving to Mr Mouse and have done with it.....

Good afternoon Cheryl.....Please pass on a message,tell Rachel she owes Roise a stack of E-mails....

 

[Cheryl N. WI]

Hi Karen

Well I guess we'll just have to talk to Suz about this trip then right

Glad to here you're going to be at WDW at Christmas time too What dates will you be there? We will be there from Dec. 19-28

I was going to say, the wife can't talk = heaven, right guys?

What, no tomato soup with that grilled cheese sandwich?

I was just reading an article in our local paper about a restaurant that just opened in Milwaukee that specializes in grilled cheese sandwiches. They make them several different ways. One of their popular ones is grilled cheese with sloppy joe inside (they call it the Cheesy Joe). Looks interesting and a couple of us from work may drive down to it for lunch sometime. For the Milwaukee DISers, it is south of the stadium on Miller Parkway.

No, the sickie girl needs Chicken Noodle soup!!!

Sloppy Joe on grilled cheese, sounds really sloppy to me.............

The Bucks game and dinner were alot of fun. It was great to see you guys again! Thanks for the tickets and the seats were fine, we could see everything great, it was just fun to be there, especially with such nice company.

Well I think Suz should definitely be the decision maker on the WDW trip!!When I booked our tickets on Midwest Tampa was actually more expensive than Orlando and they didn't have the Fri. afternoon flight that they have into Orlando either. I sure was glad I was able to use frequent flier miles for our tickets! Sorry we don't have any extra DVC points, in fact we are splitting our stay between a 1 bedroom for the first half of the trip and a studio for the second half. The points are low until the 24th and then they jump to the highest point category so we are borrowing from next years points too. I am thinking of getting us annual passes and then going back for our summer trip in June 09. I'm not sure how much time we'll spend in the parks either, I figure we'll start our day there early and see how the crowds are but there is so much other stuff to do as well as just hanging out at the pool and checking out all the Christmas decorations.

Birds of a feather, flock together..............

Good afternoon Cheryl.....Please pass on a message,tell Rachel she owes Roise a stack of E-mails....

I have no life savings because of Mr. Mouse and poor Rachel has not much of a college fund because of him either

I will let her know about the E-mails. I am surprised she is behind, it seems she lives on the computer these days (which is why I never get to use it when she is home), maybe she really is doing homework like she claims

 

[DISNEYDUET]

Garden man just arrived! - get ready to catch me when I FAINT

Ready with a pillow and smelling salts!
