SarahS I noticed that, but also Debenhams have money off day, inc off some of the Fantasie bras which is what I wear plus they do cashback.....well done keeping off the drinkies!
Valli brilliant isn't it, the coordination is unreal, my dogs fall over just walking...
I have a 20% off for current customers came through the post if anyone needs a code for Littlewoods.com (they do cashback too)
Bums, my insurance cashback hasn't paid out yet, said December and was hoping for it now as it's £70, but suppose not desperate for it so it's safer there than me spending it.
Just going through my gifts for others list, see what I need to get for others, see if I can get everything ordered this week, trying to do as much as possible of it online as I hate shopping. DS2s playing on the Wii fit, I might need a new TV by the end of the day as he's nearly gone through it twice ski jumping....One day I might be more organised...........

Blimey Lil_me you psychic? I was just about to post about how clever that doggie is. I figured they put a CCTV on it as they had no clue how it was getting out...we had a budgie like that when I was a kid. Everyday we would come home and it was flying free so we never let it out when we were in for a few days (it was a very friendly bird and loved attention) so it lost its patience and escaped when we were in - it was an old fashioned cage with a plastic 'bag' type cover. The glass sides had broken (we used to kneel on them when we were cleaning it..) and it climbed over the seed pot, out into the bag and walked to the back of the cage then pulled itself out by its beak...we had to put hardboard panels in instead...Valli brilliant isn't it, the coordination is unreal, my dogs fall over just walking......

Off to the docs shortly to be examined following my probs of a couple of weeks back. Irritatingly I also have to have a smear BUT they won't process a sample taken today - I have to go back on or after the 29th. And there was me hoping to kill two birds as it were...Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily Dickinson

Back after lunch (yummy chinese buffet) and a trip to the local supermarket to get the weekend's food. Cost too much but I don't have time to go to the cheaper store.
So now I have about 10 minutes before my two sons get back from school - just enough to unpack shopping and start on the kitchen I think....0 -

Ok daft question time.:D
I have ‘done’ my family tree, at the moment it is on several bits of paper, and a nightmare to work out who belong with who etc.:rotfl:
Ideally I want to put it onto a CD Rom or similar / computer programme
So who else had a family tree and how are you ‘storing it/ adding to it?
Many thanksBreast Cancer Now 100 miles October 2022 100/100miles

I did too - thought it was a new poster who wasn't au fait with IT!
Will the post get deleted and the poster 'barred' or whatever they do?Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily Dickinson

Bother I missed the thunder and lightning as I was.....cleaning the sinks!!!
Ok another question, what do you use when toilet cleaning? Gloves? Disposable cloths? Or what? Outside and inside.Fluttering about an inch off the ground, I may fly properly one day and soar in the clouds!

Good grief! This week has almost gone and I've only just checked in here! I've been quite good this week - I have done two loads of laundry at the launderette; maintained a pretty good level of Swish&Swipe cleanliness in the kitchen and bathroom; got the bin out on the right night; put the recycling out; got my xmas gifts ready to post off; been to look at a new place to rent and done all the banking and application things; been busy with admin and decision making things this week. I have the radio on now and the ironing board out - so that's what I'm doing next! I have also been a good cook this week (being on holiday from work I have managed to cook proper meals every day - including entertaining a friend to supper one evening). We have begun to collect some Xmas fare too. Off I go now!:D
