    At the moment fine. I bought a couple of Mills & Boon books today so I can do some research :p It's more the style of writing than anything else. I'm dreading writing those scenes!

    Has anyone started listening to Christmas music or watching Christmas films yet? :o I know, I know...it's only the 2nd December.

    I think that my family and I might watch "Elf" later on. It's my favourite Christmas film. We watch it every year!

    I haven't. I'm trying to avoid anything festive until after exams but my mum has other ideas :rolleyes: She's been forcing me to get into the Christmas spirit and I'm trying to focus on my exams. I want to get good grades this year as I'm hoping to do a Masters next year. This morning she said she doesn't want me to do the degree and once I'm finished this year I should just go out to work. I want to do the Masters though and I'm gonna do it if I get it. Why does Christmas appear to bring out the nasty side of some people? :mad:

    How come she doesn't want you to do a Masters? Education is a good thing. :)

    I don't know really. She was alright with it until last weekend. She also complains that I can be rather cranky at times. Well of course I can, I'm only human after all! What does she want me to be, a robot who goes around grinning like a Cheshire cat all the time? :rolleyes: We can't all be happy all the time. Exam time is stressful and she doesn't realise that. I'm like that flight attendant I'm writing about. I could do with her help ;)

    Good God this design is awful.

    The colours don't work
    Too much white space
    Fonts are sore on the eyes
    A good chunk of the screen is cut off on the right.

    It really is an amateur attempt.

    Hello Hav! :)
    Evening HM! What has happened to the forums? :eek:

    Bloody hell, I know. It looks as if the website hasn't loaded properly. It might grow on me, I know that I didn't like the layout a couple of years ago when they changed it.

    It's like they put a beta version out into the live environment (a big cock up in web deployment). It should have been put into a sandbox environment for proper testing first.

    This is my main issue with it. It's a "no" from me...

    Yeah it looks broken :p Was it designed by the Windows 8 design team? It has all the appeal of that godawful Start screen in W8.
