    Don't worry about it that is definitely not your problem :)I thought so, but wasn't sure.

    I am sure you will find plenty of other things to worry about :rotfl:I think you're right :o

    No really just do what you have to do and let everyone else worry about their problems. Thanks DT xx

    I've just finished doing some ebay listings - I'm having to relist the ones I first did, obviously nobody wants *these* SFX magazines :rotfl: Never mind, its only a click of the button, and I might as well see.

    Off for a cup of decaff now, and something nice to nibble :o I'm ***hungry*** :D:D:D

    Wierd the things that sell and the things that don't isnt it?

    I feel robbed of lunch - veggie cupasoup (they are always the last ones to go) and a chunk of past its best bread - I hate eating food you don't particularily like (albeit noble) it feels like you've been robbed of a meal.

    I'm just chuffed my towel rail thingy has a watcher on ebay!

    I *so* know what you mean about a cupasoup robbing you of a meal. If I do that, try to be too good, I stuff my face afterwards :p its just not possible for me to be noble about food :D

    Went for my routine dental thingy - missed the last one, unique for me, cos it was during the time I was so ill. All is well! And I thought, well, if I'm ever doing the WHW, I *have* to start walking, so I walked there and back - 45 mins each way, up (and down :D) a hill. Which has meant I've done astonishingly little today. Went out into the garden when I got back, intending to plan the planting at the new house - Fay and Squirrel have got me going, between them. And I did, but instead of sitting on my lovely semicircular stone steps, I sat on the steep steps up to them .... a neighbour's **white** cat was sitting on the steps, I didn't like to disturb him. He went back to sleep after he saw me :) I was happy :):):)

    I nearly did collapse :rotfl: thanks for the feedback on the estate agent, Taxi - yep, I've had the same feedback on the sellers' thread, so I'm not worrying about it. Thats a first for me :rotfl:

    Today - washing up, Egyptology, Sainsbury's on the way back, a big one locally, making sure that when I get home this evening I can just put some pasta on and relax.

    Have a good day - sounds like (estate agents aside) things are going according to plan!

    Hiya! I *did* have a good day - I'm sorry the start of yours was so bad, Hypno. Well mine, I have to say, was good - apart from my train to Egyptology being delayed by an incident in another carriage, don't know what was happening, but the police took care of it.

    Egyptology was amazing - the director of the site at Hierakonpolis came to talk to us, fantastic woman, with up to date info about what they're finding this year. This is a site that predates all the Egyptian dynastic, by at least 700 years, its astonishing.

    On the train, met some people who'd also been at the lecture, and they gave me a tip on a woman who runs really cheap tours out there, £1100 for 2 weeks, including flights and a lecturer. So thats my new plan - dfw money to go into a separate pot for house maintenance and holiday, I haven't had a proper holiday since .... 2002, I think.

    Tomorrow, it will be garden maintenance and more planning of the new garden - ooh, I love the planning, that programme The Edible Garden has really caught my imagination again, I'm having a ball thinking about what I might be doing - apart from things like lettuces and radishes (which are cut and come again where possible) its all about perennials and self seeded annuals for me. Happy happy happy.....

    Glad you are happy!

    Holiday and the course sounded ace :)

    Sad to hear about train delays and sorry to hear the day started badly Hypno

    Enjoy tomorrow - I'm teaching and doing some gardening for a neighbour etc

    Planning gardens is fun - and I am so glad you pointed that edible garden programme out to me!
