    Rose we have a chainsaw which was about £50 from a DIY place and it is fine for 'everyday' use but wouldn't fell an oak.
    Thanks but he needs the oak felling type, that's his job! I guess this is what comes from being self employed and having to buy your own equipment.

    Right, am turning the PC off and going to do some flying...

    I'd forgotten how boring reading CVs was... why do all these grads have such poor written communication skills? Overuse of what they think is corporate language I can just about forgive (I hope to god they're not all that pompous, but it tends to go with the territory in the final year of uni :rolleyes: ), but bad spelling and grammar I find totally unacceptable!

    I couldn't agree more GB. Infuriating!

    Hello!!! Happy Birthday Flower!!!!!!

    I'm in, sort of. Been a busy morning/lunch time but came back and blasted through the kitchen. Dining room is done apart from the 2 bags of toys (been there since Xmas) which need putting in the boys rooms once they are done. So toots can I please have my star :D I can throw the bags in another room if not.....:p Rang BG with meter reads, was the 4th so that is done.

    DP said we're doing the boys rooms tonight so wondering if that will happen. I've got more bees in my bonnet than I know what to do with at the moment but this time DP seems quite supportive in what I am getting more involved with, probably as it's the same HT that we had hell with! Anyway all I can do for today is just about done, one more email to do and some more research.

    Suppose I should go and see if DP wants to start on the boys rooms overhaul or if he's just sitting on the sofa all night again (new leaf seems to have turned back lol)
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
    GC: £200
