    Started off bright and sunny here so I was out pegging in my nightie with a skirt pulled over it (in case it was breezy;)).
    I have already brought some in! Which was good really as I had filled two lines...
    Freecycler came for the battery charger (which I didn't know I had:rolleyes:) and was 'persuaded' to take 2 pairs of inline skates as I had no takers for them. Kicking myself that I didn't also foist the wellies onto him.
    Someone is supposed to be interested in the shovel and another pair of wellies but we'll see!
    I think I will pootle off to Halfords shortly as I need lots of inner tubes - again:mad:

    ETA I am now waiting for mum and dad as dad is coming to fit DD's new Ikea mirror - I did go and ask to borrow the drill but he wouldn't let me:rolleyes:

    Been to farmers' market... I always forget that the veg is more expensive than at the farm shop, but as it would have meant two journeys in opposite directions it was worth it.

    As I've got the second freezer up and running I bought various bits and pieces that I can freeze (bread, sausages, butter, meat etc) as well as veg, cheese, doughnuts, and raspberries.

    DW is finished, so needs unloading. WM is nearly done, so I can hang that out. Voting forms for parish council elections completed, and my car insurance change of policy paperwork, so I'll walk into the village later to post them. If the washing dries on time I will also mow the lawn!

    Looking at my insurance paperwork I've got a question... this is the second year with this broker, and I told them that in 2007 I was in an accident that was nothing to do with me (someone drove into the car behind me when I was in stationary traffic in the snow), which I'm not even aware of costs for as the insurer didn't tell me as they dealt with everything. They told me it wasn't relevant - but this form asks me whether I have been 'involved in any accident or loss regardless of blame in the last three years whether or not a claim was made'... so do I have to make sure they have the details? It seems a bit unfair if it will put my premium up, but then again, I don't want to be accused of having misled them.

    Any thoughts?

    OK... off to deal with the washing...
