    Why are we all looking for smurfs :confused: and how do you know what is what :confused: I'm getting more and more confused as so many avatars look so similar now :o :rolleyes:

    We are humouring Dusty:D She said we flyladies are like the smurfs, one for every situation. So nearly all of us are smurfs now. I am missing Mr Sambora though so i may have to switch back soon.

    Well my delivery that was coming today between 7 and 7 arrived yesterday.:confused:
    My boiler service booked for 10-12 today has already been done... had a phonecall at 7.45 to say he'd be here at 8 :confused: Still, I'm up, and it's done!

    Suppose I should make a list...

    ETA - gas engineer recommends switching on the heating for 10 mins and checking that all the radiators are getting hot every couple of weeks during the summer. I don't think it's necessary to do it quite that frequently (although its a great excuse when the weather is this rubbish), but probably worth doing about now, as Oct/Nov are busy times for repairs when everyone switches on!

    Soappie.. sending hugs for DD.. I'm sure in the long term it is all for the best however hard it is for her at the moment. At least she discovered it now rather than in a few years.

    I'm certain it's for the best. I did say to her on Monday night that she deserves better then kicked myself for saying that. But last night, she said I was right to say it and it was true. She's calm this morning - has just left for work.

    Grey day again here. I need to go and get some provisions at some point if we're to eat tonight.
