    Yey, managed to get a few more things done.

    Arranged MOT for car next monday.

    Took DD's birthday pressie laptop back to shop. They didn't believe me that there is a glitch with Asus 701 4G, until they rang their technical support who said 'ummm yep, there's a glitch with these particular laptop's they will not connect to wifi.' DUH.

    So that is now sent off to be fixed, not happy Asus obviously know there's a problem, means my DD cannot use her own lappy and has to keep useing mine.

    Oh yes, nearly forgot, been to my weigh in tonight and dah daaaaahhhhhhh

    Right, bed time for me as I need to be up and dressed by 7am in case Argos turn up :eek:

    Accomplished since tea :
    • 2 plastic shelving units cleared & dismantled I could hear the plastic sighing with relief as I took my folders & books off it :o
    • Dining table full with contents of shelving units :eek:
    • Paintwork wiped down in the alcove the shelves will be going in as it won't be seen again until we move :rotfl:
    • Laminate flooring wiped over before new shelves go in.
    • Attempted to remove marks off wallpaper, nothing worked so that will have to be a paint job when we move :rolleyes:
    • Screws/nails in walls that are surplus to requirement removed - holes will be filled at a later date when I can get under the stairs to find the filler :o (Plastic shelves are in pieces under there....a job for Tomorrow/Sunday maybe? :confused:
    • Hoover emptied and filter cleaned out so I could....
    • 1 spider chased around the ceiling until I finally caught it an hour later with the hoover :mad::mad: (no I'm not kidding, it took me an hour as I had to empty the hoover as it wasn't sucking sufficiently to catch the spider :o:rolleyes::mad: )
    • Livingroom rug & sofa hoovered to add ammunition to the hoover to ensure the spider was dead :o I'm never going to heaven :o:o
    • Roast Beef carved - now I remember why I prefer to buy ready done stuff, I hate carving meat :mad::o Nearly puked when I spotted veins in it :o:o
    Right, bed time... :wave:
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
