    My dear I may love you in that special platonic way that only Flyladies can love each other, but that doesn't mean to say I have to tell you ALL my secrets....

    How do I know you don't actually work on the side for the Consumer Bowed? :p

    Because, as you know, Oh Saponificatious one, I work for the CAB, not the CB :p:D :rotfl:

    Hi everyone, hugs to all the poorly littlies - hope they are well soon.

    Long day at work today - not for any other reason but I have too much to do (felt like a right old humbug as just didn't have time to help a young colleague with the decoratiions but I just have soooo much to do and I need to catch up. (new recycling service is being introduced and guess who gets all the queries...)

    OH has finished putting in the new kitchen units and is now having a well earned soak in the bath - I'm having a few miutes peace on my own, doesn't happen very often.

    On a truly flying note - I have found my kitchen work surfaces:D
    Will have a bit more when I move the breadmaker and slow cooker on to the new units. I also have somewhere to put all the stuff that I am storing in the utility.

    Must go hang the washing up..

    Hugs to those of you who are having problems - there seems to be so many at the moment, hope you all have a better day tomorrow.
  • mudbath - thanks my lovely, downstairs isn't an option as we only have a lounge, kitchen diner w c and a utily cupboard not a room as can't even turn round in it. We WILL cope. More debt heading our way, deary me you have to laugh or you'd cry; but people have it worse than us, have seen it on this thread so need to get a grip. Why is it so hard to do the right thing? We will have to get into more debt, but so be it. Or we could just move out to a caravan and leave them all to it? Bring it on, bring it on
