    No! get a jumper, get some socks, and fly Dusty Speed style - You'll soon warm up - no heating before October unless you have people in need at home - now get a move on:rotfl:

    I've got bare feet and a vest top on plus all the upstairs windows open

  • Can't do the V14 form as don't have a black pen :mad: Just texted DH to see if he has one or can bring one home.

    Instead, I've gone outside #1 - walked to the bin and then round the car parking area and round the back of the flats. Need to do it again this afternoon. Also have walked up and down inside to get up to over 1000 steps so far. Bit annoyed as I found out half way through that my pedometer had slipped round to my tummy and my step count hadn't gone up at all, so I just shook it a bit until it went up to the right amount of steps and then carried on! :o

    Going to have a sit down now and sew up my pink bra. I hate sewing, but have 4 bras - 3 need sewing up and the one I've been wearing is in desperate need of washing, plus I'm going to change the bed soon and I always wash my bras inside the pillowcases!

  • ((((hugs)))) for serena - thinking of you today.

    We were meant to be camping today but have called it off because of the rain and wind - however, it's looking sunny out there at the moment, but still windy :rolleyes: Maybe tomorrow...
    I'm kind of glad I'm not actually camping as I woke up and was sick in the night. Still feeling a bit bleg this morning. My eyes are jumping around in my head which is an unsettling feeling. Don't know if it's cos I was sick or if it's cos I need a new eye test.

    I think I may go and do a HHC in a mo.

    should i put heating on for 1/2 hour:confused:

    You can put it on for 10 minutes and check that all the radiators heat up, but only to make sure that it's working before turning on date arrives...

    Shopping done, utility draining board wiped with vinegar, but still has masses of watermarks (not sure whether this should matter... it's only the utility room after all!). WM had finished, so will be hanging one load out and putting another in imminently.

    I also need to work out where I'm going for my blood donation, where to park and how long it takes to get there!
