Good Luck with the interview msg you'll be fab! x

S&S'd the kitchen, loaded the WM and the DW so they're working away, fed the cat, made the beds (even though they'll be stripped later :rolleyes: ) swept the kitchen floor, emptied the bins and took the rubbish outside, went to shop for bacci as had run out, tidied the LR, and sorted out the recycling bits.

Off to work shortly but just pondering whether to give the downstairs windows a clean - scratch that! just seen the time, gotta run

laters :hello: x

Quick hello to SGT :wave: hope you're settling in ok x

TAG

Morning :hello:
I nearly ended up on here at 3.00 am this morning. I was woken up by slamming car doors and shouting etc. Looked out the window and half the local police force are in my street. Went back to bed and then a council van turned up with a chippy,who started sawing wood.:rolleyes: Not impressed. Anyway managed to get back off.

I have literally whizzed through the thread as I was behind. Only things I remember are -
Toots - Little Bruv has been back a while. But he goes to Iraq mext month for 6 months this time. So more worry.:rolleyes: He's gonna help me do some stuff in the new house though before he goes.

Valli - What this button then?

Right off to find a list else I won't get anything done today. BRB!!
