    I'm not really sure what to do with my towels and spare duvets until my airing cupboard gets built back up again. At the moment they are on DD's floor - any ideas?

    Hi Hex glad you had a good holiday

    Just having a little break whilst the tea brews. Painting is taking longer than I expected. White over cream is tough on the eyes. Still I shall continue in 30 minute chunks until it is done or until OH comes in and can take over the roller

  • Right - went to Comet and bought a DAB radio reduced from 40 to 20 quid and used 10 pound voucher from my surveys. New DAB - total cost to me 9.99! Bargain:j :j (This laptop is American and has no pounds sign)

    I seem to have spent hours doing paperwork :mad: :mad: . I must sort out my filing as everything would be so much easier to find if I did. We have a shortfall on our endowment and trying to sort it out is a pain!! When we were first told about endowments we were told that we would be able to clear the mortgage and have enough left for a cruise!! Ain't hindsight a wonderful thing. That turned out to be a rant - I'll shut up now!

    Hope you are all having productive days.

    We're off to the opticians at Asda (my appointment at 3.10, DD's at 3.30 ) and I'll pick up some milk & fruit while we're there. Then I should get some housework done as it took me 3 hours this morning to get in the bath and wash my hair never mind get housework done :rolleyes: Laters :wave:

  • Ok.. firstly, what is a HHI and should I be having one? (I do hate to be left out of anything!)

    So - phone calls .. hmmm.. well I did get a little distracted by my emails - had surveys to do to help make money, so obviously VERY important. But I am right now as I type this, also opening a window for yell.com to find some phone numbers for the first call I need to make. So nearly there!!

    Thanks for the reminders girls!
