    I've decided not to go to Ikea, instead I will slave here, getting the necessaries done.:cool:

    I don't want to but I'd better.


    Going to find my list.

    Glad you saw sense! :rotfl::T

    I don't know I go away and you all start talking I**A and tootles sends me a PM and makes me cry....i've sorted myself out now and am ready to avoid lists again!!! As everyone has said already tootles....you know where we are!!!
