I would love chickens but oh is not keen :rolleyes:
Well my veg is aranged by what the piggys like so its runner beans, lettice, carrots, turnip (they eat leaves I eat bottom), purple sprouting broclie, and loads of sweetcorn i love it and they love leaves

"some team" ???
You do realise that they regard themselves as one of the two 'real' football teams in Scotland??? They (and their fans) regard the rest as well below them.

Yes, Crafty, I do realise! That's why I wrote it! We had the 'other real team' down here a few years ago too. Am looking forward to it.

Must rush now as it's mum's birthday and I'm off to my Aunty's house for an hour or so.

I am talking thousands - or if children's account were being used to hide savings so someone could claim benefits or avoid tax.

Incidentally children also have a tax allowance so as long as they aren't receiving more than £6475 pa they're fine. For instance if they were working (modelling?). For the most part though children earn much less than this even in interest so can claim back tax paid on savings interest. Or better still fill in a form (IR85?) at their savings institution so they receive interest GROSS instead of NETT (AnWs willl know the code for the form probably) Basically income can be both earned and unearned...

MOJ2 no need to worry! I hope your ex does pay for a Florida jaunt - enjoy it with a clear conscience!

Quillion I think that's where we're going! I remeber the water tower...when they did it I straightaway thought it was 'local' but never did find out where...

amended to add detail/bore pants off flyladies:rolleyes:;)

Blimey that's scary... Zoe - if you're not busy, do you want to come round and do my lists

Valli

oo Greenbee that is some list.
Start with the boudoir then you KNOW that your reward will be fragrant linen in a clean and freshly aired room when you do make it back to bed! I will probably be envious when I am hiking up some minor incline dripping with sweat....

NO! Hahaha, I'm far to busy ARGH:eek:

Thanks Valli. Bore us. Never.

I also think that starting on the bedroom first is a good idea, Greenbee, as puts you in the right frame of mind when you wake up in the morning.

Put some of the stuff away into the kitchen cupboards and on the plus side they haven't fallen down....yet.
Had a brain wave today and am going to get a kitchen unit for my bedroom, Am I mad? so that I can store my TD and have a cupboard next to it. Much better than a couple of shelves on display with all my bathroom stuff on. Have a vast quantity of shampoo etc and need to put it somewhere.

Does anyone know where you can get condenser boxes for as tumble drier from? One that doesn't cost a lot.
