    Good luck with the studying Nicki - you sound very organized. Well done for doing some of your work during your lunch hour too.

    Organized? Me? :rotfl::rotfl: You must be kidding me, I've spent the past week chasing myself around so much I've disappeared up my own bottom at least 3 times ;):rotfl::rotfl: I appear to be organized, I have the intentions, then things like me sitting down here to study happen. I checked email, realised I needed to dispatch an ebay item, sorted that out, checked my banking while I remembered. Checked the OU website and the hour has gone :o I'll get better as I get a routine sorted, but thats going to me a while yet I think!

    Why not try your local freecycle and see if anyone has one they don't use, or tell us the make and maybe someone on here has a spare lid they can send you

    I've dashed around like a loon so now downing a glass of water!

    Tidied all of downstairs
    Cleaned kitchen sink
    put laundry away
    watered all plants
    brough basket of stuff to wash and sort for NCT sale down

    Really disappointed with how my ebay stuff did this weekend but 4 things sold but not for much. Oh well will just have to try harder next week.

    Living room next and I'm going to use it as an exercise and take the cushions outside and bash them together to exercise the bingo wings.

    all washing ironed - except for stuff DS has on floordrobe - he will learn that if HE wants it washed HE will put it in the laundry basket as fairies have all left and gone where they are needed. !

    My DS1 is learning this lesson too. He was warned when I was ironing that he had one shirt in the basket unlike the others and as I was white washing last night the other 4 had better find there way into the machine - they did:T

    Triker well done on your car boot:D

    Hopefully my butter will have softened a bit now, so off to try and make my cake.

    Just signed up to freecycle, but no foodprocessors on there currently. May post a wanted message a bit later.

    Mudders - that's a really, really hard proposition in my book. However, I wonder if he's doing the research because that's what HE wants? But then he knows you'll be around to do the majority of the work? (Note to self: take that hat with suspicion written on it off!)
    Lol, I don't blame you being suspicious but he doesn't even want another dog. Mind you, if he did get one he'd want a springer. He's always loved them xx
