    How about you give the outside of it a really thorough clean? Or substitute it with something else (cooker hood, including cleaning/replacing the filters?) that needs doing but you've been puttin goff

    I know the feeling Valli I have a complete fear of heights even walking on a pier is a big no no for me :(

    I cannot DO the attic cos I can't get in it due to my fear of heights - I usually shove a child up there and shout instructions BUT they'll be at school...(it's not a complete fear of heights it's more a fear of falling and it's why I CANNOT walk on glass floors - or rope bridges.)
    I once saw a You've been framed of a woman crawling across a rope bridge and I KNEW that under those circumstances I would have to do that assuming I could get ON the darned thing in the first place...and I struggle to watch 'height' things in films too.


    Right I am of to post office and will get started as soon as i get back

  • Oh, and Kazmeister - I'm just near Lincoln, but spend most of my time dotting around the city at work or at college or with SO or driving someone around - Blergh. I hate driving...
  • Morning! :wave:

    :bdaycake: Happy birthday to Diva and JayJay

    (((Hugs))) to Lady L

    Went awol (again!) last week so sincere apologies if I've missed anything important.
    Piggers I think I've been kicked off the list :confused::cry: Honestly Ma'am I am still here flying (sort of) and I promise I will try harder. PURLEASE can I come back thumb_smileyvault-cute-big-smiley-static-021.gif*Backs away bowing*

    Went xmas shopping wed, thur AND fri, then [STRIKE]helped[/STRIKE] supervised DH laying the stair/hallway carpet. Bless him, he sliced his hands 3 times with a stanley knife whilst laying it, but luckily didnt bleed on the carpet ;), just the wall... door... radiator... :rolleyes: The hall does look good though and the carpet smells YUMMY!!!!

    Well after all that awol-ness the rest of my house looks a pit, so several HHCs today me thinks. HHC at 10.00 anyone?
    I need direction to perfection...
