    Well, I have just got my gas and leccy statements. Aaargh!:eek:
    Even with the discount and DD discount it's still:eek:
    Although the gas is going down by £10 per month - so I am logging off and shutting down.
    See you later!
    Off for a :coffee:

    Johanne huge !!!!!!Hugs}}} hon. Everyone has offered better words than I can that's why I sent you hugs.

    Have been a productive bunny this morning :-) Although I am still in pj's I have washed up the breakfast things, had a decent breakfast as well, tidied the kitchen and washed down the units. I've also put a load of washing on, made the bed so that I can't go back into it..lol. Browned the meat and put on a slow cook on the hob, to make the meat pie later this afternoon. Hung a load of washing out, although not sure it will dry as weather is very iffy here. I thought we were supposed to have a heatwave..hmmm I think the weathermen got it wrong again!! Downloaded my barcodes to ShopandScan, as I keep forgetting, and written a letter to my catalogue company, as well as checked Money online and put in spending etc..

    Now off to get a cup of tea and have a shower.
