Up half the night here thanks to my noisy neighbours, there's just been a brawl in the street and one of them came up to my face and threatened to punch me when I had the audacity to tell them to !!!!!! :eek: had a word with the coppers who someone had called and they didn't seem overly bothered, just said they must be a nightmare to live next to and to phone them if the noise starts again :rolleyes: I was wound up anyway but it's when she started screaming to get the kids out of bed that got me, a 10 yr old girl running down the street what's she gonna do ...... I just saw red then the son (about 12) told me to F off....niiiiiiiiiiiiiice!

Morning

I got evicted from the computer yesterday at about 10.30am and didn't get it back until 11.00pm ish last night and again now. DH playing that stupid poker game again.:mad:

Wow you lot have been nattering. I was on page 10, caught up to page 12 last night. Get on here this morning and there's 26 pages:eek:. Gradually skimming my way through though .

I did however do ALL my ironing yesterday. And amazingly when the kids are off school the washing goes down for some reason Off to finish my coffee and then to find a list. Back in a bit.

Hi boddy

Yeah I'm ok, thanks I'm just a bit worried about repercussions now, she's the type to do that, no apologies from her :rolleyes: I've just put a complaint in to the council via their website (I've been down this road before some will remember) and put in a litter request - she's just left smashed windscreen glass lying in the road for all to drive over :rolleyes: been there at least a week. I'm trying to find the loacal social services number but am having trouble finding it lol

Morning all.

embb - what a nightmare:eek: I't makes me realise how lucky I am with my neighbours, hope you manage to get some peace later.

nicki - thanks for the card which came yesterday, I would love to get the tree down as it's dark enough at the best of times at the moment but Ashia would be telling me I was a miserable old lady (she's a Christmas person:D )

OH is off today so he can have a go at the list whilst I am at work. He is also sorting out DS's old room into a study - though talk on the thread yesterday has made me realise that there will be room for a table with my sewing machine and stuff. I may get those curtains sorted out yet:rotfl:

Welcome to all the newbies so many of you, we will have to do things to set a good example:eek: .

Off to make packed lunch and to get OH out of bed - if I have to work he's certainly not staying horizontal - will catch up on you all during the day, I have the whole floor of my building to myself so no-one will be the wiser:D

embb

Anybody know what a £60.000 mortgage works out as monthly payment? Don't think I earn enough to pay it especially with no deposit, just working out my options...

Julie I'd get rid of the steamer if it takes that long to cook veg, it's ok if you're not in a hurry for it but other than that...

TAG

I have so far managed to declutter a whole mini perculator of coffee. 3 mugs in all:eek:

Taken 2 Quiet Life tablets cos my head is just a dizzy, spinny mess and has been for a few weeks. I should take a trip to the Dr's really. I think with everything that's gone on over the last 3 months it's finally taking it's toll and starting to get to me. The winter weather ain't helping much either. Unless it's blue sky and sunny like yesterday and looks like it'll remain that way for the next few days looking at the weather forecast.

Right off to track down a list.

Argh! I have a headache, hoping its just hunger and thirst (needs breekiefast) and not the begining of a migraine.

Okay plan is HHC 8.30-9.00 on living room and kitchen (practically the same room in this place) just to spruce things up, put a load of washing on, and fold up dry stuff. Then I [STRIKE]want[/STRIKE] need to head out to shops. M and S for milk and bits (20% discount makes it very reasonable) and HMV for Die Hard and to check the price of a light gun and house of the dead for oh. Might do some wandering, for the fresh air of course...:rolleyes:. Then I will spend 10mins sitting in the bedroom working up the motivation to dejunk and sort it...trust me, ten mins is all it'll take, I avoid the room at the moment coz its annoying me.

Congrats on the vouchers Johanne, hope oh's incident wasn't too complex.

Right. BREAKFAST
