Valli, hope he recovers soon and is ok, that's scary. When you say 'big bloke' it reminds me of when one of my partners colleagues was stabbed, they said if he didn't have such a big belly he'd have died, so one of those things where being 'a big bloke' saved his life.

soappie I'm with pigpen for the can't beat them join them but when bidding I put the last bid in myself with less than 5 seconds to go usually

Watching the slightly later 'wife swap' (+1 channel) which is an ideal 'cabbage in front of as no thinking is required' tv programme. Ones on this one I find interesting as one family make clothes from old ones, a little too whacky for me but interesting.

Anyway, DS2s homework eventually found and that is done, half the pack ups made (cheating of course as the sandwiches are in the freezer) washer load done, uniforms sorted apart from trousers for DS1......I know he's running short of them but there must be some somewhere.....will have another look in a mo. Need to fill the DW (of course DP took his plates out, but left them on the bench......something I need to address) refill the washer and think that'll be me done!!

Got a busy day on tomorrow, helping one of the charities with building some storage, then viewing a venue for a conference on the afternoon to arrrange tables etc so might not get chance to pop in, hope you have a lovely day

Hi all, first time on since yesterday afternoon and you have been chatting LOADS... so am just catching up (hope I don't miss anyone as skimming really quick...)

Soappie - Oh, I love birds of prey and kestrels and such, we only get Kessies down here, usually around the main roads and the like, but to see a red kite - I'd love it...

Mudbath - Not sure about the magnetic bracelets - I know people who swear by them but not sure how and why and have never tried them myself - this might help... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/4101045.stm

JulieJim - Do you have outlook or similar for your emails? If you do, you could set up a reminder on the 5th or something for your CC bill so that you remember to check for it - or set up a DD for min amount so you don't get caught again (sorry if telling duck how to lay eggs...:D ) Glad you found your car tax stuff tho...

embb - you should still have taken it back - the sell by date might have been the 19th but use by was 20th and if it stank that bad, it certainly wasn't going to last was it - I would have phoned them up immediately and just told them I'd thrown it away and see what they said... if you had the receipt you had PoP so you might still have managed it...

Oooh Rach, forgot to say well done on your walk... I could never have done it, I was knackerd after an 8 min walk on the treadmill... think that might be my MACAW...

Mudbath, probably a bit late for this, and I'm sure someone has prob already answered it, but I THINK, when you go to your printer settings, you can set it to print every odd page, then when you've done that, put them back in the printer to print every even page... You may have to physically type in 1,3,5,7,9,11, ect where it says 'pages' in the page range box bit, HLH

Still catching up (up to page 60), but thought I would post these for now...
I hope everyone with a bad back or a cold feel better soon,

Flylady_Flower

Still going... but have just seen Rach has answered your question Mudbath... I will read on and see how you've done...
