Greenbee - snap I'm having car insurance on my list of 5

If you're looking for green/ethical providers, maybe we can pool resources... I used ETA last year as Ethical Consumer rated them well. They're a broker rather than an insurer, but I don't think it's easy to be green & ethical when it comes to cars!

I'm very, very tired... and am trying to get myself vaguely organised for work today... updating my own stuff in my paper diary so I have it with me and working out what to wear. My blackberry has finally died (battery has run out as it kept waking itself up while I was on leave) so sadly I can't check up on anything before I leave for work - I'll recharge it in the car, and my mailbox is full, so I can see a day of email filing ahead of me!!

Morning all

There is one V tired Miss A here today! She had a great time at camp (as I knew she would). Good job there is only 2 weeks of school left.

Washing from camp all done and mostly dried and folded as well Just need to get it all at least taken up stairs.

• [STRIKE]Find 'fragile' tape and take with me[/STRIKE]

List for tomorrow at Mum's

• [STRIKE]2 Runs to the tip - fill Dad's car as it is an estate and bigger than mine[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]empty old wardrobe in shed of material [/STRIKE]
• cut up wardrobe and dump it - decided to keep this as it will hold all of Mum's needlework in one place if we can fit it in the flat.....
  
• [STRIKE]empty of sideboard [/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]cut up side board and dump it[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Empty storage cupboard[/STRIKE]
• take this cupboard off the wall and dump it

• [STRIKE]move boxes already packed into brick shed (newly cleared) [/STRIKE]
• pack or dump contents of shelves in brick shed - M&D have promised to do this this week
  
• [STRIKE]take M&D on drive to visit areas where properties are so they can get a feel for them[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]drive 2 and half hours home[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]get stuff ready for work as have early start on Monday.[/STRIKE]

We also - packed 2 boxes and put in newly acquired space in shed - - Mum will continue to pack this week.

They like flat in a country village - from the outside - so have put an expression of interest on it this morning...... gulp - IF they are sucess will only have about 3 - 4 weeks to do all the rest.

so all in all it was a busy and successful trip

I will do my list tonight as I have to be in work early for a training session. will also catch up on end of last week's thread at same time.

Just to add two things...

Happy Birthday Soappie!!!

Off to find not so DD's library books to take back into school. See you tonight!
