bttb-rox!

Hello everyone, I'm just back to say hellooo...some of you might remember me but probably quite a few who won't, as there seems to be thousands of newbies since I was around here, which is great to see! I'm bttb-rox, or Lauren, and I was last on here in 2009 serving as a Mod. I left the forum as I was so busy at the time with other projects and felt it would be best to leave while the going was good! So much has changed...the biggest change is that I'm now married (less than 2 months ago) and I now live in Cornwall (used to be Essex)! Those of you who knew me back in the day knew that my aim was to move to Aus. Well, while me and my lovely husband John would both love to visit one day, we are very happy living in Cornwall and I've found my home here in the beautiful South West, so things turned out very differently but happily different . I'm now self-employed & in the early stages of setting up my own business as an IT tutor, delivering computer lessons in the local area. I did study hairdressing at college in the end & worked in a salon for a while but moved to Cornwall and found it difficult to secure work in the trade here, so decided to take this route, which I'm very excited and passionate about. And next week my brother moves to Cornwall as he has found work here & has seen how well things have gone here for me, so I'm over the moon to have him on his way to Kernow ;). Home&Away wise, I'm not really keeping up with the show anymore sadly as it's gone downhill in the last couple of yrs and nearly all my favourites are now gone, but I do dip in and out of episodes as I probably always will and like to keep up to date with how the show's doing and the cast. I don't think I'll ever be able to separate myself fully . So anyway, it's great to see the forum thriving and I hope all my old forum buddies are keeping really well! It is a 'hello and goodbye' so I won't be sticking around but I may well stick my head in to see how things are going, as there are still a few I remember from all those years ago now xxx

I really like Claudia. I loved her initial enthusiam for nailing down the farm hand job. You could tell as soon as she saw Martha that she wasn't going to back down. "Morning!"

Yet another glorious day yesterday and it looks set to be another warm and sunny one today .

We've had beautiful weather all week in the south east. The weekend was also very pleasant but it's definitely gotten warmer during the week. It's been reaching the early 20s every day, which has been fantastic. It's great to see people getting into the spirit by playing sports or firing up their barbeque and having friends around. I know it's a well known fact that us Brits moan about the weather all the time but you realize just how grey it is when you get weather like we've had this week! I hope everyone else is enjoying the hot weather as much as I am .

Unless the actor/actress has had their hair cut, something like this is normally used to hide their real hair. Thanks for showing us that preview pic, Dan .
