    Boo got a nasty cold and feeling carp :p - sneezing all the time and all blocked up.

    Mortgage comes out tomorrow so been moving money round for Reward and all is in the right place [hopefully, as my head is a bit wooly]..... Should have been working today but it was cancelled which was a bit of a blow. I could have done with the income but can at least claim a cancellation fee.

    OH got an interview for the job he applied for, its later in the month so fingers crossed.

    Found out today we can't get boiler scrappage as our current boiler is 73% efficient and it has to be 70% or less to qualify :(. We also had a guy come round to survey for loft insulation and cavity wall so they'll be done for free next Friday.

    Am off to bed after a honey and lemon - night night

    Cold gone now but not before it morphed into a virus which ran off with all my energy :p. Hopefully feeling a bit better but thought that a couple of days ago and it returned with a venegeance. Just wnted to say am still here but need to go to bed now and will post properly at the weekend and do an update.

    Getting cavity wall and loft insulation on Fri [free] - quite nervous about the cavity wall stuff - seems very high pressure to put it in, hope theres no probs.

    Hope everyone is doing ok? Night all, Teapot x

    It's OK pink poppy - both spellings are right. Irish whiskey has an e and Scotch whisky doesn't. :)

    :wave: hello all, am still here - virus went on for ages and have been really tired especially in the evenings. Also got bad back now which is really painful; physio on Monday.

    Am using laptop to post but cat is VERY annoyed as he is jealous of it as my lap is his so can't do long post as he is pawing at my leg and looking like he might launch himself at the keyboard :eek::eek:

    Will try and post tomorrow with a proper update back and cat allowing.

    Aww. It must be annoying for you, but you're giving me such a cute mental image of your cat.

    Hi Lois, luckily for him he is indeed very cute as he can be very norty. He got on the laptop a few weeks ago and dribbled on the keyboard - and he doesn't normally dribble :eek:
