    Shall have to get him to send it down
    I would get him to send it, but ask him for the details and ring them to complain about it, if you have the receipt number they may come and exchange it.

    Secret Compers club - I like that......

    I am lucky here, my computer screen faces the wall and nobody can see what I am up to, they must think I have loads of emails to reply to.....

    I blew the extension lead in here this morning, it was freezing and I plugged in 3 heaters, after a burning smell, the whole lot went!

    Today shall be spent comping and chilling....and procrastinating. :D

    Think I might join you. Sounds like an excellent idea:D

    I've taken the kids to school, beef stew in the slow cooker for tea, bread in the bread maker, huge pile of washing up done that we couldn't be bothered to do last night.

    So I think I deserve comping, chilling and procrastinating.

    Hope everyone is well this am.

    I am in my own office, I put the computer by the side of my monitor facing away from the door, so no one can see what I am doing, incase they tip toe in,

    My excuse is that I do wages and comp accounts so cant have people looking at my work:rotfl:

    Oh Michelle, that s a shame. I know I have looked at some comps and thought, it's not worth entering as I couldn't get to either the venue or the area....

    I just need an all expenses round the world trip for a year - now THAT would be nice!!!
