Mrs Beatson - not prone to exaggeration are you? :rotfl:You too, SS?

MOAM - thanks for the link

SSL - fingers crossed for BF

Phew!

Another egg question for you all! How long can I keep eggs in the fridge after I've hard boiled them?

Glad it's the bedroom tomorrow as that's fairly easy and I won'r have much time as I'm out with dad tomorrow for a late Father's Day meal at Cafe Rouge

Been for my Slimming World weigh in - another 4lb this week, which means I have lost 19.5lbs since 11th May, and only have another 16lb to my target. Really quite pleased with myself :j. I just need to find a clothes shop that is in my budget range, has clothes I actually like and that doesn't involve a multi storey car park.

Well done at the weight loss you have done great :T I don't get the MS thing - do you have a fear of them

Fingers crossed for your BF SSL

Huston - I don't know the answer to your question but would recommend you start a thread on the ebay board, they are very knowledgeable.

Back from cricket and hungry now so need some food and then if I've the energy a little ironing.

Hi all, sorry didn't get chance to post last week really busy time, funeral last Monday, helping sister with her house on Tuesday. Managed some flying on Wednesday also had to pack as we went away after work on Thursday. Went to London for the weekend, had a fabulous time, saw the lion King, visited the Tower of London and the museums too, went to celebrate my fortieth:j. Anything to get out of having a family party:rotfl:.

No flying today just dailies, no work tomorrow though so will catch up then, have done WM x2 ready to put out in the morning,also going to make a pasta sauce for tea tomorrow.

Hugs to anyone that needs.

Good vibes to all:A

Take care xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

soappie thats a bit worrying about the swine flu. I am glad you have actual delivery days sorted out now - what a pain but you will be able to do more on the book.
lilysue glad you have 'coped' better with DS2 - remember we are always here when you need to rant and now you know there are other Mum's who have had exactly the same problems so dont get too stressed if you can help it - I think they need to give you a lappy for your birthday and christmas:D

Doh! Just realised today's task was just for living room, hall and stairs!
It was too early when I read it - thought I had to do the whole house!
Yay! that means I've done it!:j

phizzimum oh you poor thing - you will be worn out but look at the head start you have on the other areas. Have you done everything on the list - do you need a star?
huston did you pay through paypal? the first thing I would do is raise a dispute for an unreceived item - ebay is on the side of buyers -and follow the procedures - have you looked at the sellers feedback - have they had problems?

I think we may well have instigate an entry test - I can see that Mrs Beatson and Mudbath together are going to be trouble and SS supergirl had to join in too - that Mrs Beatson is a bad influence -this was a quiet SANE thread for a while - now its all going to hell in a hand basket - I give up:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

*mutter mutter moan moan huff puff* Toots hangs her head in despair and wanders aimlessly away hoping that its all a bad dream and tomorrow she will wake up and all will be restored to peace quiet and ladylike decorum and things wont go t1ts up again!

Nope, just struggle to get the Landrover in them as it is too tall and rather big to manage small turning circles! I wonder if I can get into the ground floor at Meadowhall? Does anyone know if there are height barriers?

Thanks for the congratulations - it does show just how badly I ate and didn't exercise at all before though . Toots - exactly, luckily I had kept a couple of old suits from pre children that are fairly classic or it could be a lot worse. With doing consultancy I have to wear the right stuff.

I made myself sort the stuff for the morning and S&S the kitchen so at least that is done. Glad it is the BR though, must strip the beds before I go to work then I can catch up with the rest later. Off to read Rebecca in the bath now with a cup of Tea. I do know how to live!
