    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    Morning Hidden! Absolutely brilliant news on the washing machine :j and exciting news about the new kitchen counter tops (or am I just showing how excited I get over little things?). Once you've got those installed and your new appliances sorted it will feel like a new kitchen :)

    How annoying about your ongoing battle with the prescriptions. There is always a minor drama between my GP and chemist every time my prescription changes which ends up with multiple packs of the wrong dose medication being ordered the first time. I've come to expect it to be a bit of a hassle now, so that the 1-in-100 times it goes smoothly I'm flabbergasted!

    I love PA. My only advice is make sure you check as often as possible I use something called visual ping on Chrome that pings and alerts you to a change on the webpage (ie a new study pops up)

    The new work tops are long awaited, many an argument (they wanted to leave half the original in and half new but the new being a totally different colour .. No thank you!) The whole of the worktop behind the sink has rotten away and is no longer there just a big hole! So will be nice to have it nice and 'clean'

    As soon as I'm straight with things, survey money is going to be going to paint and decorating everything and sorting the kids rooms and things. Slowly but surely ;)

    Thank you :)
