I should be booking my coach tickets today:j
coming down no latter than Tuesday before the rave
Sunday or Monday:cool: is more likely
Horace, the only tip is use Topcashback - 5%cashback:D
and the coach to Wols usually goes from gate 1 :cool:
The Belgravia does a better and cheaper pint than Travellers:beer:
and its not hard to find:cool:
Thanks for the tip Numpty and the reminder to book my tickets. I get cheap coach tickets because I claim the disabled rate:rotfl: I am thinking of coming down on the 29th July and coming back on 2nd of August.
I tend to go into The Travellers Rest for a Baileys Latte, I try not to wander too much.0 -
Hi Wol, just having a massive catch up. Glad Ginge is home, hope other piggies are well. Hope you feel better soon as well now you have some antibiotics.

we would love to see you sometime. and i'm glad you both like your cards. Making them keeps me out of mischief
i'm surprised you were sent out to find a suitable screw (norty girl) i would have expected the plumber to know where one could be located.
i've got a weekend with OH working both days so i may yet make some more cards though what i really do need to do it make some more cushion covers0 -
One week after what was meant to happen.......
and today I can proudly report.....
I have a dining room floor.....:j:j:j:j:j:j:j
and wallpaper up the stairs/landing :beer::beer::beer:
and hanging baskets loooking fab everwhere with an irrigation system to support them:j:j:j:j
It's all so luverly....and I think I am a bit shellshocked.
Please don;t expect anything sensible from me over the weekend:rotfl:...tears have been flowing profusely and methinks they may be an intermittant recurrence over the next few days
I daren't believe ..in case it all goes ****up again (yes - we had another emergency today at 8am - seems the utility sink is so "bowed" it;s defective :cool:).. Ah well - it's been fitted anyway - August us another month in which to invoke the warranty
Suddenly at 9pm tonight I realised that my home/garden is finally coming back to me - and it;s DO-ABLE ----:j- very emotional couple of hours tonight....
Still can;t quite believe it after three years........I'm finally getting my house back...I'm finally getting my house back ....I always hoped but never quite believed it was possible........
It's just too wondrous
Wow....

Pleased to hear it Wol- can't believe it has been going on so longBlackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:0 -
Morning Wol - long time lurker here! Just had to say I am so pleased that things are finally coming together and I too had eye leakage whilst reading your post. You are an amazing and inspirational person. I know things have taken their toll on you over the last few years but you are finally getting there - brilliant :jOD [STRIKE] £2600 [/STRIKE] £0 :j Loan [STRIKE]£9500.00[/STRIKE] £0 :j Car [STRIKE]£3150[/STRIKE] £0 :j Moving Costs [STRIKE]£1300[/STRIKE] £0 :j Savings £1150 :j
