    Oh lol that's why I wondered where it was bought from. We have a Haskins Garden centre here near me.
  • I can't wait to have my own place, so I can decorate and furnish it... Though I'll definitely be using freecycle at first!

    I'm so nervous about starting college on Tuesday evening, my stomach's in knots already!!! I still can't quite believe that I've enrolled - and not sure where my sudden burst of enthusiasm has come from :o

    You'll be fine CL once you get in there and sit down you'll wonder why you were so nervous. I know that's what usually happens to me. Doesn;t help before hand though.

  • I'm doing accountancy (I know, I'm mad!)... big change from what I was doing at uni. At least this time I'm doing something I really want to do. I saw a couple of others who were enrolling and they were all older than me (40s) so at least I won't be the geriatric amongst a class full of school leavers. I'm sure I'll be fine once I'm settled in, it's just the awkwardness of not knowing where to sit and not wanting to look desperate :rolleyes:

    I thought about doing it through the Open Uni but it was £2K for their accountancy course :eek: Plus I really need to get over being a house hermit :o:o:o

    Good luck with your auctions jenjade x
