ooh Quillion I'm torn...I'll have to ask my plumbers what they are charging for the tiling or would they recommend I get another tiler in...
I'm going for a longer walk than usual tomorrow and we are doing The Archeological Way. Usually I manage a 12ish start but as there's no dancing we can get off earlier.

I bet they charge in the region or £20 - £40 per mtre sq
They wont reccomend you get another tiler in but get them to quote you on the tiling job alone then i will get dh to come and give you one (quote) haha .

Where is the Archeoligical Way is that the one at Langwith? If so my brother lives near there.
and remember the grand designs house that was the waterworks

Hi all

Will catch uproperly tomorrow but I am still here - just.

Ill from tablets and had a disasterous couple of days holiday - wasp sting in neck x4, broken down car, sick baby and a 6 year old with severe burns to her right arm we were only away from home for 1 night in Sheffield !!??

Will need to rally the troops and try to catch up tomorrow. Hope everyone is well xx xx

The Inland Revenue would certainly be interested if they had reason to think a parent was using a child to 'hide' amountsof money ie banking it in the child name in order to avoid tax. But I am certain that would be way more than £5-£10 a week.

On income support/job seekers you are allowed to earn £15 a week without having to declare it so it'll be fine if that is all it is.. and as it is such a small amount going into the childrens accounts how would anyone else know? How many grandparents hold an account for the grandchildren and deposit small sums as and when..

MOJ2.. Stop worrying.. it is absolutely fine! If the children were 'working' for the money they don't have to pay tax on it BUT.. you would not be able to claim benefits for them though.

Morning all - feeling poo DS was up before 6 (after 6 I can do before 6 is a struggle) and determined to get up. I have eyes that feel like wee holes in the snow and a headache to boot! Havent done much list flying lately but have been doing my own bits (fallen off the wagon already I hear you cry) and today will be no different. Supposed to be having BBQ tonight so have lots of prep to do for that and a house to clean from top to bottom as it doesnt look like its going to be sunny.
Anyways was reading last night but not chipping in so good luck to those with things happening, big hugs to all the poorlies and happy birthday to any celebrating xxx

Morning all

We have sunshine here on the south coast, let's hope it's like that in London!
Hugs to everyone who needs it. I'll nip in and out as and when I can but after about 10ish, you'll not see me until tomorrow.
