Evening all

JD - Know how you feel - our old bank done this with us - did not pay a £30 DD as it took us £3 over our limit then charged us £30 for returning the DD then £35 for being over our limit :mad: :mad: :mad:

Chardonnay - have forwarded you copy of PM from MATH (hope you don't mind MATH) re Paid to Clicks

Johanne keeping fingers crossed for you viewing your hopefully new abode

(((((((PP )))))))) - keep your chin up - sorry to hear your hospital appt was cancelled - as others have said use the chair when you need to - I love hearing your about your day - you cheer me up and the energy in your posts inspires me

Kiwichick - have you tried decaff - or half caf coffee - we changed to decaff ages ago and I still need my coffee in the morning to get me going even thought there aint anything in to get me going

Just gave house quick straightening - normally I would have been sat on my bum with bottle of wine in other. No alcohol till the weekend for us

DW emptied and any dirty dishes put in.
All rubbish in bin.
YC given tablet - only 5 more to go :eek:

Just watched the rest of Judge John Deed tonight - had recorded this on Fri (thanks for the tip off) as the program does not start in Scotland till this week - I recorded it on BBC Wales through Sky so now I am a week ahead of my friends

Have a great evening all

Sleep tight those that haven't been

Take care

Love

LTS - yes i can manage..just. it will be difficult with the 4 kids on a weekend esp with DS3 as i rely on car to take him out in his special needs car seat, but i should be ok next month and will get car sorted out. only time it will be very hard is when he goes to respite care on 21st, i will have to find someone to take me and him there and back, and someone to sit the other kids while i do. thanks for asking xx

We bought a brand new stainless steel cooker in may 2004 . it is gorgeous. anyway i promised myself i would clean it weekly so it never got caked on grease. anyway i started out doing this. then a few weeks into it i didn't do it one week , and so it carried on.
until it got to this week and i thought i just can't stand looking at it anymore. it is disgusting. my kitchen is always clean and tidy then u see my cooker.
anyway i can't really afford the oven cleaners and tbh the smell makes me almost pass out and with kids in the house they not suitable.
Anyway i have cleaned the entire cooker and it is sparkling. it is gorgeous. looks brand new and guess how i did it
tesco value washing up liquid ( few squirts ) 2 tesco value sponge with the hard green top , and 2 tesco value soap filled pads. also alot of elbow greaseand hot water. but to do my oven cost no more than about 50p and i had no digusting smell. and i have a gorgeous ,shiney looking oven.
i am so pleased with myself i just had to tell everyone.

I've been hyperventilating for the last two hours, my Estate Agents called me just before 6 and said he has booked a viewing for tomorrow morning :eek: I've been running around like Mrs Doubtfire hiding stuff, putting Christmas away, hoovering and dusting, do you know how much stuff you can hide in a washing machine??? :rotfl:

I'm going to have a :beer: now cos I'm cream crackered.





Thud!

I'll pay you 50p to come and do mine!

Glad

didn't you find the green scourer and the soap pads scratch the stainless steel?

I feel like that after I've chiselled all the crust of food off my cooker and gave it a good cleaning, I make a promise to myself that I won't let it get as bad ever again but guess what, I lie to myself, it needs doing now.

foreverskint

i'll up the offer to £1.50, to do mine:j
