    That's what I am thinking, my towers much taller than that, I'm thinking for that price, when he's in a better mood, ask DP if we could get it and put the shelf lower down.....depending if my tower is ok width wise (will have to measure it properly tomorrow) I don't have the space in the room to put the tower seperate, hence looking for something very narrow. DP wants one of those computers with the diddy tower so don't want him trying to use it as an excuse to get one!

    Mudbath, early Christmas sounds lovely, what nice friends too, when is your happy birthday ?
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Given up on the idea of having a bath... just making sure I have everything ready for tomorrow and hopefully will wake up in time to get everything done!

    Have to log off now and pack laptop so I don't forget to take it to work tomorrow... I've just realised I'm working in Staines first not Windsor AND that my first meeting isn't until 12 (so actually, I should probably go to Windsor for 10 to see my team, then to Staines, and back again for my 2.30 meeting... boring...)

    I'm thinking about getting a new bed (mine is horrible, it was the cheapest frame I could get, and it's that orangey coloured pine which doesn't go with anything else in the house, and the slats don't fit the frame properly) and as the beds I like are on offer www.warrenevans.com with mattresses, I'm thinking about getting a new mattress (mine's 10 years old, and is starting to show its age a bit), but I'm not sure about buying a mattress without trying it first.

    Mind you, by the time my utility room is finished I'm not sure whether I'll be able to afford it... it seems to be taking forever, so either I'm going to get an invoice that doesn't match the quote, or he's going to be making a loss!

    Morning All

    I was about to start stripping the bed this morning but DH said don't bother it was only done last week - it doesn't need doing! So I haven't!

    Bit of a strange week at work this week as my class is at Stanley Head so I'm spread about in different classes.

    Hope all poorlies are feeling better today.

    Right I'm off to load the TD and reload the WM.

    Have a good day all

    Morning everyone

    Mudbath - what nice friends you have!

    Just about to jump in the bath and then head off to the old site - must remember to turn right at the roundabout down the road rather than go straight across!

    I will do my bedroom tonight when I get in.

    Have a good day ladies.
