need to update my list....when I find it, but wanted to say,
Well Done to G+B.
Mudbath, we have a plug in towel heater for the downstairs toilet but we are only allowed to use ot when very cold as OH said it uses a LOT of electricity, in the awning of the caravan we use the oil filled rads, they are really warm, though not sure how much leccy they use, HTH.
Rosepink, ebay still don't let me bid on anything, is it possible to close the account and open a new one? xx

Fancy popping over the water to do mine???I am struggling with this part of the course.. Seriously tho well done.

Just popping in to say hi, this week has been spent working & studying and as a result the house is a kip, havent had a catch up yet but was wondering it toots was home yet?

Mudbath

Thanks toochoosey....I wonder if the oil filled radiator would work. I have a fan heater but don't think it's safe to put towels on one of those to warm them up. The radiator often isn't on so I just want something small that makes the towels toasty! I'll go and google the oil filled ones.

Flying - dishwasher on xx

Yeaaaahhhhh :dance::dance::dance::dance:

DS 14yo has his first GCSE exams tomorrow - guess which one Maths!!! :rotfl: He takes after me, and we discuss maths at length DD 16yo will be sitting her History GCSE in the same room - they're dreading sitting near each other. They get on really well, but worry that they'll giggle if they're sat near, and get into trouble One person was asked to leave an exam as she turned round :eek:

Going to do some filing/paperwork/admin, then possibly some needlework. DH has taken the children to Explorer Scouts, so I have some peace (they're having a party, so I've baked chocolate butterfly buns and plum oat slices for them to take)
