I stole off Craftyon the Daily Chat thread:D

Why you picking on me woman?:p:p:p:p:p

Great quote crafty! I think it describes the feeling perfectly. Maybe chewing gum would do the trick. Mind you, all of me is bored, not just my teeth as I've been on the phone all afternoon for meetings that have been 90% presentation with little interaction. FOUR HOURS of people pontificating... :rolleyes:

I'm not picking on you jinky, I'm just drawing attention to the dramatic recent change in your approach to flying :rotfl::rotfl:

Hope it's ok for me to do this: AnWsmum's lovely husband very sadly died, Yellow Day is his birthday and some of us choose to wear yellow (his favourite colour), or buy daffodils etc to show our love for and solidarity with AnW's mum and A&W. It's also a day when many of us remember loved ones lost.

Sure it's ok rach and you have put it all so much better than I could

AnW'sMum yoohoo!!!!! .....TAX RETURN!!!!!!!!!

Ohhhhhhhhh sh!tttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt YES MA'AM :eek::eek:

Just caught up and can't remember who was asking about replacing dysons, if you don't want to get them to come and repair your old one for £65 (where they replace parts as required) then you might pick up a bargain direct from dyson. I got ours as an end of line model and saved a bundle, free delivery and full 5 year guarantee

Fish fingers chips and peas for Miss A and W for dinner, packet pasta and toast for me.

Same here, only I was there in person and was reduced to eating cheap biscuits for FOUR HOURS! Next time I will take some carrot sticks or something...... I ate more junk today than I did in the last fortnight

Flying has been limited but I have finally managed to get hold of the wood man who will be delivering a double load tomorrow - another £105 cash I have to find as well as my consultancy tax return :eek:

Kitchen is a tip. Dyson needs a replacement hepa filter asap. moany, moan, moan moan. Need to eat my dinner (jacket with cheese to neutralise the acid!) and then I can crack on with the mess. or slope off for a bath with a book........

ETA Cheers AnW for the Dyson tip - mine is only 18 months old and I think it is the filter only, pesty animals and building work you see.

That's the benefit of working on a virtual team... most meetings are on the phone so I can only go as far as the cable will stretch. Obviously not so good when it comes to a. needing to go to the loo (which I do... badly!) and b. getting backache from sitting still too much!

Finished now... off to the loo , then to close all the curtains and work out a plan for the rest of the week. I am soooo behind on my writing it's untrue!:o:o

Hoping that I can pick a hepa filter up in comet or currys tomorrow. 4 cats, 2 dogs means we cannot wait :mad:.
