    thanks!:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

    I have now sent one asking about the heated towel rail - do I need it to be electrically heated as well as working when the central heating is on? I need it to warm the room AND dry the towels...

    If you have a hot water tank, you can have it on both the heating and hot water circuits, so in winter it will be heated by both, and in summer it will heat when the hot water is on (I think you mentioned you're on economy 7, so it'll dry the towels & warm the bathroom up for the morning). If you have a choice between chrome and white, get white, it's more efficient (and less hassle to clean!!!)

    I haven't got a hot water tank...
    (goes back to read rest of Greenbee's erudite (obviously LOL) post!)
    erm
    they DO do it in white BUT I like chrome and I like dusting and I like polishing and I like bright shiny stuff anmd I ma having chrome taps and chrome cupboard handles. How is white more efficient?
    It'd would be daft NOT to have immersion rods for it - as you say I could run it on E7 (never thought of that!)

    Even if I don't do-it-myself shall I do before and after piccies?

    I do NOT want to put your friendy off...I am sorry! Honest, Jinky (but I am smiling cos I typed JUNKY then...)

    While I am brain picking

    flooring

    vinyl?
    Tiles?
    KARNDEAN?
    (I don't know whatit is actually..)
    NOT carpet. No way!

    Well I've been on the net all afternoon - have now worked out my maths resources, and have got some more ideas for my lesson observation for Friday 13th! (Read Ofsted stuff sent by serena - thank you; and done research on writing levels, success criteria for stories with historical settings, and on Hampton Court Palace.) OH has done a load of washing and has put the dishwasher on. I've eaten quite a few biscuits, but other than that, I've not done an awful lot. I think I've got that CBA-itis about my planning too.

    Nice to see that you've settle in greenbee, and that you've managed to make use of the hotel facilities.

    Hope you enjoy the recipes fedup - I tried some of the banana bread that I made for OH, yesterday, and it was really nice (I'd followed recommendations on here to wrap it and freeze it in slices in a container, so OH could take it in his lunchbox each day).

    Welcome poppytime.

    Off to make myself some tea now as although the heating's on, I don't have a radiator in this room and I get freezing!

    Used my new No7 moisturiser and face wash today - quite impressed, but await to see how often I actually have time to use it (usually just use facewipes in the mornings due to time). I like the little glass pot the moisturiser comes in - very posh, and reminds me of all of the little glass pots my nan used to have on her dressing table.

    Well better get that kettle on, and see if the dishwasher has finished yet.

    Be back later,

    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    Evening campers :) I've crawled out of whatever hole I fell into recently :) This flu/glandular thingy has been really dragging me down lately and just doesn't want to shift itself.

    Welcome to all the newbies, *hugs* to all those that want them :)

    Hopefully I haven't missed anything too much and can catch up quite quickly with you all :D

    So Pigpen knows you're here and you can go on the LISTY

    we are list crazy here...

    are you near where Jinky is moving to, then?
    I am from that neck of the woods, originally.
    It IS fun and it WORKS. Just start with level 1s and declutter a bit...
    oh - but the main reason is that FLYLADIES are (well them - not me I'm odd apparently, HAVE A SPECIAL PROBLEM, ME) NICE,
