    Aftrenoon Everyone,

    I hope that everyone is having a good day, and anyone who has the lurgy is coping with it.

    Happy Winter Solstice (sp?) to everyone - the days should get longer

    Today I have......
    Checked online banking - no change there
    Not spent any money
    Daily clicks
    Looked into (and signed up) for donating blood - not MSE but its good Karma

    Think that is about it - got to pick our houseguest (Nan) up in a moment, it is easier to have her here over Xmas as the busses are not very frequent, and she needs twice daily injections ~ Mum does not drive, and I work out of town.

    Take Care

  • Just went out this morning and bought some engine oil to do a full oil change on my car. when I tried to take the sump plug out I found out I had every spanner and socket apart from a 15 millimetre.:mad: Grrrrrrrr so after half an hour of looking I decided to go and borrow one.

    I drained the old engine oil into a quarter full bucket of fence stainer and put the lid back on and put it back on the shelf in the garage. I hope OH doesnt think its creasote and decides to paint the fence with it next year.:D

    where I work they hold blood donation sessions there and you get free tea and biscuits when you finish ( to make sure you dont get up straight way & faint) so technically it is MSE ;)

    2009 is a year of charity - I got given a tin of choccies by one of my suppliers.....I then sent an email around the office saying that I had them, but I was going to give them to a local hospice for the family of the patients

    Need to give blood and something else
