    Sally, I think it was BB said that the asda/ikea cheap throws are great for lining curtains, might be cheaper than buying new thick ones?

    I think it was Pooky who can take the credit for that genius idea :D

    Jacs - marinated pork chops with veggies in the SC sounds lush - I'll be over after my class has finished tomorrow night? :D

    Sal - I certainly hope OH isn't a prat - I've just sent him a text 'hotel gutter again?' as he didn't make it back from his night out - as usual :rolleyes:

    Ames- I'm a bit too organised for holidays :o I have a list with headings - 'travel siz/small bottle/tub' and 'full size' for toiletries etc and then a list of stuff like bite cream, painkillers etc. I've been moving clothes into a different wardrobe as I decided I wanted to take them so I can just take them out and pack them - I checked last weekend that I had enough of everything :o I will then do a list of what to put in my handbag/handluggage - passport/money/books/sunglasses etc

    I haven't done my clothing to take list yet (just to make sure I have everything!!)........and I haven't decided what I'll be travelling in.......:think::o:rotfl:
    :D"Stay Wonky":D

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.
  • I keep avoiding the ironing pile. To be honest, it's more the 'putting away' of everything once it's ironed that puts me off. Not enough drawer/wardrobe space. Well that's my excuse and I'm stitcking to it :D

    What colour did you dye it Buffy?

    Have you tried some Deep Heat on your back? I swear by it and strangely I love the smell of it, I had cravings for the smell of it when I was pregnant with Jess.

    I hear you chick!

    I often end up with 6 huge piles along the bedroom floor against the wall and would it occur to anyone else to put any away? :mad::mad::mad:
