    I have bright red twinkly nails and I am filling holes... what is the world coming to!?!?!?!?

    Right..

    Printer paper..
    White/cream emulsion.. whichever is cheaper to cover the crappy blue it is now
    new roller!!

    WOOT!!!! I'm on one!!

    Oh.. and i am getting an almost £300 cheque back from the council tax!!

    Enjoy the painting and filling Pigpen - it's fun (or am I just very sad? :confused:) Just one thing, don't by really cheap paint - the value type - as it is useless at covering stuff and you will end up doing about 5-6 coats and still be useless, so doesnt work out cheap at all...

    and great news about the council tax... :T

    Flying.... ermmmm,..... I have decluttered some cheese on toast and some emails.... ermmmm... that's about it.... but I'm going to watch a bit of tv and have a rest now, I'm poggered....

    Evening everyone

    Toots - well done on your 13/13. Hope the side effects behave themselves. Oh and can I have a star please? I have done the bathroom AND the utility area (because the study is my bedroom and I did that yesterday AND I've done most of the living room because I have a meeting at mine tomorrow evening straight after work.

    I decided it was better to get right on with the flying when I got in from work rather than come on here. Certainly made me work harder!

    Am now going to do a bit of OU
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

    I am now the proud owner of.. 3 chisels and a screwdriver... :D:D:D

    I have a new roller and tray.. some brushes and some filler... off to play!!

    Go girl - when I 'invited' ex OH to go he said he was taking his toolbox (probably because they were as new;)) so I asked hime to leave me a couple of screwdirivers and went out and bought a toolbox of my very own.

    I now have lots of tools and fuses and stuff:cool:

    Good news on the godmother front ...

    Naw Mummyof5 I interpreted it as support for Mumoffour77 too - in my (limited) experience sometimes finding out what you are entitled to in support terms is NOT easy...

    And Mudders top news sounds promising

    And Toots WTG *mwah**mwah*

    My dad has been for an angiogram today and has to have a stent:o
    He has an artery almost fully blocked:o

  • Hi fly friends

    I haven't done all the bathroom/study today. I have (with my white collar on instructing OH) added more wire cable to the sky box so that I could move my TV unit so I have totally gutted the livingroom while I was moving everything round.

    Toots 00020261.gif Congratulations on the end of your treatment.

    I took your advice about steeping my blinds in soap powder. I did the room of doom ones today and they have come up a treat. I will do the livingroom and kitchen tomorrow. Thanks for the tip.

    My Auntie was at the hospital yesterday for her yearly check up and it's all clear so I'm well chuffed 0002031A.gif
