    Fingers crossed michelle. Also, your speedo may not be 100% accurate so you may have actually been doing say 34mph and so they might let you off.

    Hi!

    Just popping in as I've been reading lately and not posting on anyones threads.

    Great news on the Ebay items, all adds up! The same for the MS you've got booked in, seems great that you get to pick up something you've wanted for a while too with the Twlight books.

    The 'pox' is something we haven't had here yet - touch wood! DS has been around people with them lots before but has never come down with them, seems to pick everything else up though (including Swine Flu :eek:).

    Fingers crossed about the speeding, I've thought I've been caught before and have gotten away with it. Your speedo could be out and think they allow something like 10% on their speed to be out.

    Enjoy the rest of your weekend xx

    Hi Michelle,

    You always manage to cram so much into your days. It will be good for you to have some time to yourself this afternoon and relax with a book or your knitting. I'd love to do that myself, but I've booked 3 tables on a nearly new sale in a couple of weeks, so need to crack on with sorting the kids clothes.

    Oh dear, poor DH. At least the dents can be left alone - broken lights would have been worse as they would be expensive to fix.

    I've only listed a few bits - there are always more free listing days, as you say.

    When are you going to Liverpool Michelle? That's where OH lives. He brought the Echo up with him on Thursday and there was an entertainment section which was interesting. I'll post it off to you if you want to pm me your address. This link might be useful too

    The superlambananas trail has finished, but there are one or two still around the city centre. That reminds me, I must put my superlambanana pics on FB :)

    Good going on the hour and half on the bike - hope you're not too sore today!

    Yikes about the car, a friends LO 'helped' his daddy wash the cars once. While Dad did one side and the other car, the little helper washed one side with gravel and a pan scrubber he found in the garage - kids!
