Good afternoon ladies, hope you're all having a lovely Sunday

I've been quite busy today, shopping came, LOADS of it, only do one shop a month so it's usually a lot. I found some codes on the Tesco thread and got £16.50 off :j :j So I had to sort the freezer and all the cupboards out to get everything in and organised. Made my OH split up the bread so we could freeze it, he gets all the duff jobs bless him! :rotfl:

We've had a good tidy in the kitchen, done all the washing up and now he's going to finish the painting while I sort all the ebay stuff out

We watched less than half of The Unborn last night and then he got too scared and said we had to turn it off :rolleyes: :rotfl: :rotfl: There were two really jumpy bits though and we both screamed really loudly :rotfl: Not many films make me scream out loud like that!

I shall post how I get on with the ebay challenge later

Shelley - your little boy looks so cute on his bike, bless him!

if you're buying stuff rusty - the hexham one is pants - the stalls they have outside are normally the best - the regular stalls are full of tat - never did it myself I do chester -le -street or seaham. It's ok I guess but we find it's really dirty stuff - loads of videos, etc;

Hexham is huge mind and lots of people turn out so it could be good if you're doing the selling

Thankyou for the advice ... I know what you mean about the stuff being dirty, we didn't go to buy we went upto try and find it and also scope out if it would be worth us travelling up there to do one ourselves soon ... it is quite big, but from speaking to a few people up there you need to be there early to get a good space.

Have asked MIL to have the kids one sat night/sun so we can get up and go and then we stand a chance at getting a good space for all out rubbish!

I have been quite industrious today and was fully clothed at all times!
my bottom step of stairs has a little worn patch of carpet so have taken the hall cupboard to bits to get the same carpet which was on the floor in there. Avon girl came over, rang bell and looked slightly horrified at pile of stuff!
Have sorted piles for my car boot sale, charity(gone) recycling and bin. So i'm quite chuffed.
Also, sorted curtains in my lounge. They were made for my last house and are slightly too long for this window and weren't hanging very well.......sorted today ! And me and grumpy son removed a roman blind that was on the window too and kind of collapsed last week. Window looks a lot brighter and bigger without it!


Have caught up on emails and paperwork that needed seeing to and we managed to pop to movie mob at cinema to see 'Tales of Desperaux'......it was okay but we were in the 3rd front row.....a bit in your face!!

Have done my tesco shop and got a few bargains, particularly veg, which is good.(also some little trifles for 10p for 3.............oops no-one else likes them!!)
So I feel quite satisfied this evening, have done what I set out to do, another wee pile for carboot and an evening in front of Dancing on ice with an iron in my hand.....bliss!

mhagster - did I just read the words "iron" and "bliss" in the same sentence? :eek: I hate ironing!

JS - Jin is alive :j And we're not too sure what happened to Aaron but as far as we know he isn't back on the island.

I don't mind ironing.......it's not my favourite thing in the world but I can combine doing uniforms with watching tv!
