Ok, the next time I utter this phrase:
'my back is still sore'
and this phrase
'hmmmmm I think I will get the Vax out and do the carpets'
on the same day........................SOMEONE STOP ME!!!!!!!!!!!
(Yes I vaxxed the carpets and yes my back is now very very very very very sore!)

Did I ever say I don't always think things through?

GREAT NEWS FLOWER :T :T :T :T

Ditto that - and what NO-ONE has put yet (I think) is how supportive we all are one this thread (and others) of people we do not 'really' know, may never meet and yet we still care. We encourage, we praise, we compliment, we sympathise, sometimes when a bit more encouragement is needed we PM, some of us have gone through tragic times, some of us put up with far more than others and still stay strong. We give time to each other - searching for information on line when someone has a problem. We pass things on - books, clothes, recipes - allsorts!
We share the triumphs and the sorrows...there is not a one of us who is mean, selfish or uncaring. Not a one.

Ditto Valli - you made me cry with this...:rolleyes:

All my good friends - the ones I turn to in need and am there for when they need me - are miles away. I don't have people to pop round to see, have a coffee with, etc, and really miss that, but you are all the next best thing to me, infact, those friends that you count on one hand, they are 1, 2, 3, and my flylady friends... thank you all...:T :T :T

Great news flower - tax office does my head in. You must be so relieved.

Haven't moved from the sofa except to go to the loo and make another cuppa but have ordered 3 prezzies from amazon. Have to use my M&S vouchers in store plus I have another 10% off one so when DH's back i'll get him to walk up the road with me to the foodstore and pick up some wine from there.

Debenhams site still glitchy which is v annoying when I want to order my magimix
