That's very kind of you Polka - I'll bear it in mind

Something else for you to know-and I think Greenbee will like this too. When we are at home we wear what our friends call "the family uniform"....We didn't go out today so I'm still in my PJ's now:D
And it's quite fine for Rach to come by anytime (thanks to this thread:) ) Greenbee if you are feeling left out then how 'bout a road trip for you? (Not much of a long one). Rach I forgot about Ladywell:o They really are equidistant.

Yey another 3 things sold on ebay and all for more than they cost me new!

Thanks greenbee - just added myself to the database. Will make it much easier to organise *several * flylady meets

Off to a rainy Fratton Park now for our first match without Harry Redknapp :eek:

If anyone fancies a mid-week London catchup...

I'm in London for work on Wednesday (I'll be at the Institute of Directors during the day, don't have timings yet), and travelling via Waterloo.

Will also be in London for work 4th & 5th of Nov (conference, but could do after work) ...

... TAG - you're not far away at all

... now I just need to work out how to do one of the google maps things where you put your postcode in and it shows everyone's locations! If anyone knows the answer, can we link it to the Yahoo group?

I may well be up for wed depending on times, did you mean after work? 4th or 5th prob fine too, need to check calendar at work.

re google maps, i can check with the guy who does our maps at work i have a feeling you save it as 'my maps', you might have to subscribe or something, but i know he does maps with multiple locations on.

I might be up for Wednesday too (depending on times) DF is home this week so it would depend on his plans...but I'd love to try.

I should (hopefully) have the agenda tomorrow, so will PM you the details and we can see if it works out!

Polka - do you need cake tins too? I know I promised you cake-making stuff, so drop me a note of the kind of things you want and I'll get them sorted out (although I still have 3 boxes in the garage to sort through so there may be more later)

I can see myself going to the IOD with a huge skip-load of stuff :rolleyes: looking like a bag lady!

great, yeah pm us tomorrow to save clogging up the thread!

Hi, I was just having a read of all your posts and it struck me that maybe you shouldn't put too much detail on the yahoo group of where you live, i.e. postcode that can be read by anyone.(I don't mean all you lovely people whopost on here, I mean, just anyone could find it) I just joined the group and it was very easy to do, no moderator checks, so anyone could do the same.

Tell me if you think I am being paranoid!!

I am spending my free weekend looking for a cheap laptop.

Not impressed, my phone is on the blink aswell, must be something to do with 3 moibile, usually signal and bb is perfect here. A bit annoying to say the least!

Been swimming, getting so regular the lifeguard let them stay in when others had to get out, basically I think because I am always with them, some people let their kids (anything from 8 years old up) go to the pool alone, they don't behave and the lifeguard hasn't got the time to babysit them aswell.

greenbee well done, what a good idea, something I never thought of. I've added mine.

poohbear depends on the yahoo group, some are more specific and require authorisation (like a lot of Freecycle groups) when it comes to authorising members. I have chosen to add nearest town only as my postcode covers 14 houses, last one wouldn't have bothered me as that was about 80 I think. First part of postcodes shouldn't cause too much of a problem. Cheap laptop try second hand ones, can get one for under £300 now however new.

DPs still out and not called (well if he has my phones not told me but I have tried calling him and no answer) so guessing he's not coming here this evening. Was supposed to be coming and doing the awning so we can bring the dogs up, guess he's just staying home and loooking after them instead as it's getting dark now.

Forecast is for possible minus numbers tonight, pleased I am here with free heating, just turned it up full!
