    BTW Valli - I meant to say - looks like a nice strapping lad you have there!

    AnW's Mum - is it okay if they come to school with me? I don't think I'll be able to manage 2 school runs!

    Off to have a bath after I've fetched my tracksuit in off the line - it's not dry and I need it for tomorrow - and it's not supposed to go in the TD!

    Right I'll go and have a soak

    Catch you all tomorrow

    Valli - don't keep everyone up all night - you've got work tomorrow!

    ... and he's an excuse for hanging round firemen as well!

    It's just that I don't necessarily want everyone on the other threads to know who I really am and who I work for...!

    Cos if we all knew you'd have to kill us!rotfl.gifrotfl.gifrotfl.gif

    If he doesn't text back I will call the council on Thursday and ask...since the car park near the shops round the corner has a ban on commercial vehicles I can't see them being acceptable out here. Trouble is I don't want to stir up trouble for NDN who parks a (much smaller) Transco van - but he doesn't annoy everyone with that. The lorry is parked so that it does cause problems for traffic.

    Juliejim - shame on you mentioning the W word!

    As part of my decluttering efforts I've found the box of bits I had to decorate my bra for the moonwalk this year. Does anyone have a need for some bits of pink sparkly net (two kinds!), various lengths/colours of satin ribbons, sequin, feather and card butterflies? If so, PM me your address and I'll put them in the post!!!

    Not sure what to do with the rather unattractive bra once I've taken all the bits off it. Any ideas?

    Polka - I am gradually sorting out the baking stuff, but there's quite a bit in the garage, which I haven't been into for weeks! Hopefully I'll get it sorted out for you soon.

    There is a difference between vans and lorries though, might be able to get round that ie anything that will take 7 tons or over is prohibited?

    I'm not worried about you lot... it's just some people on some of the other threads seem to take it as a personal affront if someone works for a company they don't like... and try to make you feel responsible for everything the company does from call centre agent to CEO!

    However, as there are 9 videos on the link... I'll leave it up for an hour or so! Just bear in mind that its work...

    Too late now!!!
