Eep, been having a horrible manic week at work and then the internet at home has been very iffy so not had much chance to come on here. Nothing much to report other than Music Magpie cheque arrived so will work out how much that brings the MOF to in a mo.

- Hoover
- Back up all stuff on laptop onto ex. hard drive
- Sort through paperwork
- Write to neglected friend
- Look for cheaper breakdown cover and cancel current
- Make valentine card
- Make birthday card
- Print off Travelodge confirmation
- Put cheque in bank
- Post RiSi books and letter
- Make Victoria Sponge
- Hem on skirt (and trim?)
- Mood board
- 3 x Dooyoo (all already half-written, where's rolly-eyes smiley when you need him?)
- Litter tray
- Phone about dogs offer

Hi Lara, thanks, just said on Dinah's thread, but sorry to hear your news and hope you're ok xxx
Hey Wendz, me too, that's another thing I can pluck from the back of my mind and forget about! Weekend was quiet but lovely, tho involved far too much eating I fear! Hope you had a good one!Weightloss: 14.5/65lb0 -

One question. Why purple?Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

One question. Why purple?
Purple branding, wouldn't have been half such a job if it were in black and white, the colour printers are somewhat reticent to say the least.
OK, haven't stopped all day, not even for the drama on Corrie!
