    given that we live in a very hard water area a friend of mine lasted less than a month with a black granite sink before she begged the kitchen fitting company to change it for a different one.
    I remembered this when i chose mine and went for a stainless steel linen effect one, lazy moi???? NEVER!

    I'm starting to get quite peeved with this online bingo milarky. I'm only signed up to the bingo of the fox at the minute, but I've played through nearly £11 of free credit without the slightest whiff of a win (I went to one, once, but that's it). Given that the average ticket price is 5p, what AM I doing wrong?!

    Of course, it's either going to go all the way with no win or I am going to be forced to come back here and eat humble pie if I win something. Perhaps I should have stayed schtum, but perhaps my virtual moan will precipitate a win. Here's hoping! ;)

    Here the local shop has deliveries at just after 4 each day, and late nighters went past at about 1:30, noise is just enough to wake you up, so not a briliant night here either. I gave up on sleep just before 5.

    Hope Hypno is doing better than we are.

    I woke just after 5 but refused to get out of bed until the alarm went off - I am so so so tired and could do with a duvet day.........if only!

    Pickle - every bingo site is different with the number of players etc, but at the end of the day it is all random - might win, might not......why not sign up for BB?

    Off to scratch, bank and drink coffee - no early morning bingo for me because I have a withdrawal I need to make from yesterday first, and my 24 hours is not up for a bit.

    Have a good one xx
