I was thinking how to put it but I was going to say that this will have, er, taught you a lesson (awful phrase really!) about how you want your living space to be - it's a good learning experience I guess, moving houseDebt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0

Oh I absolutely know what you mean! My only slight concern is that I've been taught this lesson before, and forgotten it
with a house this size, and basically not being concerned with appearances, its easy to let it happen. However, not being concerned with appearances segued over into abandoning quality of life at home, and I certainly can't allow that to happen. "Rolling maintenance", in my surveyor's words, of my house, my life and my belongings, is the catchphrase

HH has to be different!
And it will be. Otherwise you will have us lot to answer to, and some of us (not me of course,) can be very bossy.......Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0 -
:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I've just been laughing at something greenval wrote on Fay's thread, and now I'm at it again :j or rather, Hypno is
I'll stay with the difference thing, honest.
For one thing, the house is pleasantly spacious for one person, rather than "why did you buy that all on your own?" which is what one neighbour here said to me, in absolute good faith.
For another - I *do* have you lot! The bossy ones especially:D:D

I'm an idiot sometimes. I've spent hours over the past two days ferreting about inside my computer, my printer, the Techie pages on here, and the Dell help pages, trying to get my computer to print out - it stopped mid-document. Turns out that I *didn't* take off all the sticky bit that protects the part where the ink comes out
:o:o:o:o there was a little blue bit underneath the pink bit, which was almost completely invisible, and since its been mashed through my printer about fifteen times, I had to pick it off with my fingernail
:o:o:o:o
At least the printer's working. There were some things I needed for work-work tomorrow - I was going to have to send them to my email account and access it from the local library :eek:2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -
Glad I'm not the only one who's done that with printer ink. My last lot had a big tag like you get on resealable bags, so just took that off, didn't see the little bit actually covering the copper thingy. The other problem I have with inkjet type printers is I don't often print stuff out, and then when I do need it, have to start all over again with the aligning print heads or whatever.Debts at LBM - Mortgages £128497 - non mortgage £27497 Debt now £[STRIKE]114150[/STRIKE][STRIKE]109032[/STRIKE] 64300 (mortgage) Credit cards left 0

OOPs another one owning up here to doing that as well.Blackadder: 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?

Thanks guys! It took me so long to realise because I *had* taken a plastic strip off - but a bit had come away and stayed stuck to the cartridge
:o:o
Still ... I've got to get going on stuff - feel like I haven't done much today, tho I know it hasn't been bad. And I'm really thinking about not having managed to prepare for the building work at HH :eek:2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -
Karmacat! I'm so terrible, I've completely lost track and noticed you haven't posted all day so am assuming you're mid move and I missed it!! (or perhaps you're off doing something productive?? Who knows!)
Hope when you get this everything's been going well!! :j0
