    lozzieozzie - weclome. Where do you heed from using a word like numpty :) I am from NIreland but lived in Scotland for 9 years and brought the word numpty down to Berkshire (where I now live) with me. They are adopting it fairly well :)

    Hi JillD, Sorry for not replying - I posted before reading - was trying to stick to my half an hour dinner (I started 45 mins ago :eek: !)

    I'm a yorkshire lass, thru & thru - numpty is my trusty 'non swear' word (along with 'pleb'!). I was trying to behave myself, lol! It doesn't come easy!

    Right - I will go back to work now!!

    Oh, ahng on, you can all still see that I'm online, can't you?! Pants! Never mind, mite as well make it upto a nice even hour then!:D

    Right.....just sorted out one of the cupboards in the utility room, I have got 7 big boxes of washing powder..... 4 are tesco value stuff and the other 3 are branded stuff......I mix the powders to make them stretch longer, im thinking I should be ok until the end of march with washing powder and softner (i tried vinegar....but it kinda left a whiff on the clothes):)

    Hello everyone!1
    have been on and off here today but thought i would do a catch up before it gets too big!
    mudbath - shame about the voice - have you gargled ? Just as well spotty poppy has spots or she might have blended in with the snow! Awh bless her for being good - she probably knows you are not well! Hope she comes through beside you for company. I wouldnt mind being licked to death by spotty dog!!!
    toochoosey oooh I love house beautiful but have resisted buying it for a year - enjoy!!!
    indigostar I do mine at place run by local college - started last june I think it was - I am just about to start module 7.
    MOF77 thanks for explaining to flower - hope you are feeling better today - and have a hug for falling out with your sis - GRRRGH to her for upsetting you!!!! Hormones probably!!!!LOL - hope it wont last!
    dusty I am with mudbath - i will have both!!!! but since I should be grown up and sensible I will have the roast beef with you - sounds too yummy - you are making my mouth water!! How are you today??

    JIllD I think your weight challenge is great and I sorely need to lose weight but I am not going to join you as I keep getting bogged down with challenges and not getting anywhere - and I dont want to be the only one not losing weight when you weigh in!! I have to take steroids evry day so it is an uphill struggle to lose weight. Good luck to everybody doing the weight challenge.

    i used to buy far too many house mags thats why i suggested this gift to my mother, it works out cheaper....may do it myself for next year....will also put the £3.20 into my savings jar every time i get one delivered...that will add up to £38.40(?) for the whole year!!!!!
