Not doing well so far but had to show you this, I was being nosey at other rentals available and spotted this http://www.pattinson.co.uk/Public/content/Rent/Estate-Agents/Property-To-Let/9685.htm seriously you'd tidy up the work surfaces wouldn't you? Caught my eye as it's £100 a month cheaper but half the house I think aswell...
Right, must do some more work, ttfn..
PS hex, wow, that's lovely!
OMG OMG. i had someone come to value my house for renting yesterday and i didn't realise he was going to take photos and he just said oh no one will care/notice in the photos. What a liar he is. I'm going to have to tidy and take new photos for him now (BTW that's not my house)I have dyslexia, so get used to my spelling and grammarMortgage pay off date 11/2028. Target 12/2020 :rotfl:

Treacle now has a note on her file that she is a nervy cat near needles! She is totally fine on the vets table, just sits and waits but as soon as she has to have a needle anywhere near her she attacks! And she is viscious!! So now they say that as she is 'nervy', they won't take bloods unless they abolutely have to! I think for 'nervy' read 'bloodcurdlingly terrifying and bites to kill'.

Chocolate and tea therapy anyone?????????
DD3 has been sent to the HEADS OFFICE this afternoon for being a little git.. So they went to school in trouble and are STILL in trouble.. I swear I'm baking them in the oven tonight!!! She refused to join in with PE (that's MY daughter lol) but then she refused to do any written work (that's my hubby's girl!!)
I need to sort stuff for the induction day tomorrow *quiver*.. Tiddles is booked in nursery for the whole day.. and I have £15 left until tomorrow (out of the tax credits I'll have £100 to last until next Wednesday.. that will NOT be easy!!).. with 3 parcels to post and I need cat litter and a bottle of lemonade to go with my vodka!!
Jb had her podiatry.. she is getting insoles for the pronation and a raise for the shorter leg.. 1cm raise for now.. so we will be collecting that in 2-4 weeks. Her appointment was 1:30 and we got there early.. first afternoon appointment and were seen at 1:45 and got out at 2:30.. by which time there were the next 2 appointments waiting... lol.. I need to get tiddles an appointment sorted too. Pod. reckons the ortho. will want to make different raises/supports though but that will take longer so these will suffice in the mean time.

I know what you mean about 'killer cats' at the vets, last time, sat in waiting room, could hear all this banging and crashing out of the vets room, eventually a dishevelled red in the face woman arrives out with pet carrier, it contained a rabbit that has run round and round the room!!!
So it seems now this rabbit is on the gaunlets / goggles list!!Breast Cancer Now 100 miles October 2022 100 / 100miles
