    Hi everyone, just dropping in briefly to let you all know that eviction notice on my sitting tenant has been served and if she doesn't vacate voluntarily before Monday I'm sending the doctor in to get her out by force.

    Due date is Thursday, but I'm not allowed to go over by more than a week and Monday seemed like as good a day as any.

    Took me a while to get the gist of that as well......:rotfl:lol

    Well, not done much today apart from looking again at the coffee recipes that sarah put on the other week..........found some little plastic pots (bit small so I'll have to alter measurements), covered them with some brown/coffee sort of scrapbook paper I'd got then found some coffee art images on google that I'll stick on them. Got bit carried away looking at them all.............lol

    No sign of sarah -hope she's ok.

    I'm fine hun, thanks for asking. OH has had the kids today while I have been out :j:j Feels like the first time in a month LOL. Done loads of shopping and got a few bargins. Don't think OH is too chuffed at the amoutn I have spent though LOL

    Bargins

    8foot Trampoline and Enclosure £99.99 Original cost £197.99 :j

    Fifi Hieght Chart for Little Sister 69p

    4 x Beer Can wooden puzzels (Xmas Pressies) £1.99 each

    2 x Dr who Diary and Sonic sets £2.50 each

    And a Family meal for a Fiver in tescos, oh and as I spent over £30 I got 15 cans of carlsburg for a Fiver too:D Thats kept OH happy LOL

    Was nice to go out and have a break and a change of scene.

    sarah - glad to know you're ok:j

    Wish I had a 'bargain' shop like that...........well, sometimes I do, but I do love the charity shops......:rotfl:
    We're off to Worthing on Saturday - quite a few charity shops there so hopefully I'll get a few bits and pieces,
    Judging by the weather forecast of rain and more rain looks like I'll be spending most of the time shopping while OH finds the nearest pub with cricket on the tele............:rotfl:
    I would be unstoppable if only I could get started !
