    Morning properly now! I've had a mooch around, just finished brekkie (so by the time I've finished typing this, it'll be time for another cuppa tea :D)

    Only stayed at Egyptology till half time, so to speak - I was a bit dizzy with tiredness, truth be told, so gave myself some leeway and came home early. I really want to have a day in Horsham tho, it looks a nice place. I will, when the intensity of the house move is done.

    I've had some bad news over the last few days, and it was confirmed last night - I'm accompanying a very old friend/acquaintance to a local funeral, where he'll be speaking, there's no minister, and no one else speaking. I wasn't sure he wanted me to go, but turns out he really needs the support, so I'm there. Slightly weird after confessing how rubbish I am at maintaining friendships, but its him that keeps the connection once again :o. He's a good person, and his wife is a Scouser, so that makes him extra-good :D

    I had a little cry when I found out about the woman who died. I know she was beautiful in so many ways, even though I didn't know her well. She was special.

    Today, for me, is a quiet one, I need it even tho I *did* sleep well yesterday. Moving stuff around so I can do a *little* bit of cleaning and packing. Digging up part of the cornfield. Throwing away any rubbish I can. And I've resolutely put a whole load of pretty SF magazines into the recycling bin. Sigh.........

    I read that too quickly at first, Fay, and it looked like you were the one having the sleepover, lol.

    Cuppa tea now in hand, the denim slippers stuff from The Guardian on Daffs' website is copied into a single document, all is well with the world :)

    How on earth was that?

    What a truely marvelous invention and as you said previously SO green.

    Confession here - I bought two books yesterday - complete impulse purchase. No cash back, no thought, just a 'ooooh thats a pretty window display', didn't check at the library either - lol.

    I think I'm an 'information-a-holic'

    Dummies guides to 'keeping chickens' and 'green living'

    I'm telling myself books are good insulation.

    *honest as well I'm not stalking*

    ETA waves to Hypno as well - not stalking you either - lol :) ta for the PM :)

    Morning Hypno :hello:

    Fay, you *know* Hypno likes stalkers - she amended her sig for us, after all :D

    I've used that line about books being good insulation :p you can't fool me :p

    I *love* books, but I've bought them in the past as though the information floods into me by osmosis..... not good :D
