  • MOF77 do you hire out your crew!!!! they have worked well

    Funnily enough toots My dad was saying about DS1 being able to go down to my uncles house to give him a hand with building the Garage, not actually building it but labouring.......He said it would give Kris a few pounds in his pocket and hopefully make him realise that it takes hard work to make money......Dad reckons he has the build....tee hee he is 5"3 and around 9 stone....but he has a 6 pack and is really really muscley!!!!:eek:!!!!

    ETA....It actually could be good for him!! It could make him study a little harder in school!!!

    Froddy - I have two spare bedrooms too, but the largest one has been converted into my study... the small one is for visitors, although I also have a sofa bed in the LR and can put an air bed in the study if necessary.

    I'm in this week. Though I have a meeting after work tomorrow night so may not do much tomorrow.

    As I'm still giggling over AnW'sMum post about the banker song on the old thread, I feel morally obliged to reproduce the link here just in case any of you missed it.

    It is a classic! Thank you AnW'sMum

    Thanks soappie and AnW'sMum. This will have me smiling all night. Well back to sorting myself for next week.

    SGT how long before you move?
    toots xx

    I haven't committed to a date because I didn't want to put myself under pressure, but now I think I work better when I have a deadline. At the moment though I am just going to carry on with the lists from here & each day do a little in each room. Last week I managed to get 6 bags sorted for charity & they have gone, today I got rid of all my house plants to one of my aunties, so I suppose slowly I am getting there, it's just that I expected it to be alot quicker, I think I am just overfaced with the enormity of it all.
    Nevermind tomorrow is another day.
    Nite.

    Pleasures all mine ;) I have sent a letter to my MP demanding my bonus this weekend, I kid you not :D:rotfl:

    Anyway I had better skiddaddle to bed, W is already in there as at 9.30 after allegedly having been asleep since 7.30 he answered 'yes' to the question 'are you asleep?' :rotfl: I figure if he is there to start with he will not wake me by a. wandering in later and b. adhere to the 'deal' of going to sleep straight away ;) he's less fidgety as well when he is there from the start.

    Sleep tight one and all xx
