hows about telling us your worst CD from your collection. I think mines a Will Smith album, though I did own Lets get ready to rumble, pj & duncan's album on tape - it was a misdirected present. My OH has Steps Gold album, all very amusing as we both prefer Rock/metal etc[/quote]


Haha, that quotes making me :rotfl: cos these are some of my fave albums!I put steps on to do the cleaning but end up dancing instead, i just love love love love LOVE Will Smith, he's prob my most favourite person in the world EVER-it's the ears i think!- and I've got a bet with a friend that i'm
gonna pla lets get ready to rumble at my wedding reception if i ever find a bloke!failing that it will be at my funeral!

Quick wardrobe update - it's up but has no doors as yet - made him stop so DD could go to bed.

Have vowed never to buy any more wardrobes ever as can't be bothered getting divorced :rotfl:.

Wonder how long it will be before doors go on and there's a chest of drawers to build but I can do that.................

ps don't buy the really tall ikea ones unless you have 6 foot long arms

I've put my hands to use - clean minds only!!!

From a 400g ball wool, cost me £2.00, I've knitted dd a ballet cardigan, (the supplier wanted £15 for a cardi), plus using odd bits of wool, I've knit 3 baby cardigans for my cousin who had a little girl last week. As we dont see much of them the cardis will go as a gift. xx

Can't get that Magpie site to work, it just deos not load after entering a barcode. Any tips please anyone?

for those looking to use music magpie, its worth checking cex too. just out of interest i looked at a couple of dvds i was going to trade in and music magpie offered 61p whereas cex would give £3 cash or £5 credit!!

Hi Hunty
I have to admit I didn't have any problems - although I did get frustrated when I first added a bar code for an item they had too much stock of as I didn't notice the message at first, and kept entering the same bar code - is that maybe what is happening to you?

I had a few barcodes where they said they had too much stock and loads that came up unknown. got a better response from OH than I thought I would as even he admitted he hasn't listened to CDs for ages as they are all on his ipod:D
