    Pooky, Bob, any other [STRIKE]freaks[/STRIKE] ironoholics who may be lurking - you're all more than welcome to come for an all inclusive trip to the beautiful land of, er, Doncaster. Hmmm, no takers? No idea why. Seriously, if anyone here does live anywhere near me and wants a few quid then the ironing is there and waiting. Ironing lovers? WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE???

    Retrocircles, mine is over 4 feet high, and that's very compacted, and a very wide pile. I haven't ironed since the last time I posted that on here, I think it was early December. I don't actually mind the act of ironing itself too much, I just despise the length of time that it takes.

    Think I've decided against Fitfarms for now. Because I'm just not fit in the slightest, and I found a few things online about how intense it is. Suggested to a friend that we do our own instead, but she said that instead of going away for a week and exercising we'd end up plastered every night eating kebabs. Probably right.

    Today we finished sorting out Greg's room which has taken 2 full days. I've now got a pile of baby clothes that are too small for him that dwarfs even the ironing. I planned to sort through it tonight but don't have the energy, it'll take hours and hours.

    How's everyone getting on with the Qype thing? I'm struggling with that as I just can't think of places to review - it shouldn't be difficult, I think I'm just being lazy.

    I'm finding qype okay, surprisingly - I was considering giving up this morning, but after fiddling about, I got an email at 10am or so that I was halfway there - and since then I've done a load more. I just hope there's something I *want* to spend it on, if I'd realised I couldn't buy DVDs or something, I might not have started it. OTOH, it sounds like activities or a bit of luxury, and I could certainly do with that. So could you, from the sound of it!

    Sleep well!

    I think its just me and you that hate ironing panda, everyone else must be mad! As for sorting out outgrown baby clothes, i have a big box they are all getting thrown into right now. i dont really know what to do with them. i guess they will sit there until they take over the house.

    Ill sign up for the kebab farm, that must be the way to a slimmer me (well i can hope cant i?)

    When are we getting a proper update on your totals? Im sure its been a while.

  • Ironing dont do that!!! Get OH to do some, he is careful with the washing (yes he does all that) to avoid ironing. I do it maybe a handful of times a year and for the odd thing. How anyone can enjoy it I dont know?

    Agree we need a budget update xx
