  • Evening everyone

    Just popping ing to say Goodbye

    Can't keep up with this thread at all - too much happens!
    LadyL and Toots - wishing you all the best and I really hope that things take a turn for the better for you both

    thank you everyone for your support - you have been a big help

    Reason for going - I just can't keep up with the thread and find that to do so I have to spend stupid amounts of time on here - time which I really want to be spending doing other things, my fault as I'm kind of addicted to you all!! So I'm cutting the cord and going, I'll pop back every so often to nab a list and do it but won't be posting. Good luck to everyone and once again thank you very much

    I kind of do that now too.
    I like the thread but don't always have the time to read it all.
    Also finding it makes more sense to work through own lists, so no stars for me, but its not really about that for me anyway.
    All the best anyway Helen.
    Sorry to hear your news LL, hugs.

    Greenbee - why are you shipping a dresser and dining table? Are you actually leaving the country with this new gig you've got? You could hire a van, go to a weighbridge, weigh the empty van, put the furniture in it then go back and weigh the van again. Deduct the initial empty van weight and voila. Though that's a tad complicated! Ahh - I see you answered Rosep's question. Why not just ask a man and van for a quote regardless of weight?

    Hugs Zara*elise

    hollyh - hope you feel better soon

    AnW'sMum - inter regnums are the worst aren't they! No one officially in charge. Makes it terribly difficult. But well done and well done to Miss A as well

    Dusty - that shower head article - quite apart from Legionella, this is another reason why a bath is so much better for your health!

    ajmoney - you can do it love - get that place back in order!

    Mrs Beatson
    - the tale about the rose wine - classic!

    Have been to the fang doctor this afternoon - just a checkup and a clean. But, even after 2 G&T's with NN next door (special occasion - she's off on holiday on Thurs and I had bought some essentials for her) I can STILL taste rubber gloves in my mouth... But good news, don't need to go back for another 6 months.

    I need job application form filling in vibes if anyone has any spare please. Along the lines that what I fill in is so deadly appropriate people have no other option but to offer me an interview...

    Oh and I also need a star for Tuesday Kitchen please Toots when you have a moment. The living room needs finishing but is almost there. It WILL be finished by tomorrow afternoon when I have a meeting here at 4pm.
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life
