Well done Valli for taking over the stars, I did offer earlier, but you are a much better person to do it. I might not have been able to get on here if DH was online a lot over the weekend! Very pleased you are doing them :T:T

Soappie, have a great time away. Your bank problem sounds very irritating. Barclays make us use card readers and they gave us lots and lots of warning. I don't know why we have to have them in the first place

GnB, nice to see you, wondered if you were ok. Hope the exams go well

Jo, are you ok? Not seen you for a while

SGT

AnW'sMum - Please can you make room for me to send you a PM? Many thanks. :beer:

Pigpen, I think I remember you having something similar before, I've also learned over time NOT to even bother nagging you because you're bloomin' stubborn........hope the DW gets sorted tomorrow for you.
Valli I actually did the bathroom, study area/where OU is stored, kitchen and dining room this week... so can I have some twinkly stars please
soappie, I didn't think most bank managers had much of those to speak about? Maybe pigpen didn't either.
AnW'sMum hello DS2s first cub camp is next week!!! I am sooooo nervous. Any essentials for kit list you can think of please let me know. Just ordered him spare cubs uniform on Ebay (can get the bigger sizes on there) and a torch with spare bulb......

ARGH right now I'm in a strop too, DP just popped home, I am now aware that the event next weekend we've planned our holiday round where we were supposed to stay until Monday next weekend...noone else is. So now I need to phone where we are staying tomorrow, see if they have the Sunday free (I really doubt it being Bank Holiday weekend) Not staying on our own without electric, we've got a generator but can't use it non stop, if I have an alternative.

Oh, just had a thought, icecream, that might help my throat

nicki I won't get anything off itunes since I found out if your PC goes belly up they won't replace what you have bought, they make you pay again which I think is terrible!

I didn't know that :eek: I'm glad I only get the free apps for my phone then. I think I'll wait until September The silent practice went very well - 40mins silence Cost me the end of the ice-cream but also meant I got to listen to Great British Menu after a fashion while I washed the dishes :rotfl:

Soappie - Hope you have a nice holiday. I bank with Natwest as well, and when I went in 12 months ago to get them to drop my overdraft allowance they asked if I'd like a card reader, I've used it maybe twice I understand the whole "better security" thing, but its ridiculous. Even more annoyingly for me is I've just been sent a "pay pass" debit card which I didn't want :mad:

Right, I'm going to go and watch the season finale of NCIS :eek: :wave:

Awwwww it's such an exciting time The most important things I reckon are a bin liner for all the wet dirty clothing! and (subject to leaders permission) something for 'midnight'; snacks Miss A's cub camp is in July, the week after Sunday school camp.

nicki until my friends laptop went off, I didn't know either. She called iTunes and they said they could offer her 25% off buying them again but wouldn't give her what she'd paid for.

AnW'sMum, thanks, I never thought about snacks. They suggested a wet stuff bag. If anything is really grotty we're staying on the site next to his which has washers I think, so odd we'd booked the same place as they are going and will be collecting him from there when we arrive on Monday. Well or Monday after getting there Sunday if there is any spaces left. He's only since being about 1 stayed out once, at Grandma & Grandad's for the night, so he's a little scared and excited all at the same time.
