    I don't really post anywhere apart from this thread, you're all nice in here, at one time I would have relished the arms but now find it too scary, I post on the grabbit if someone's posted a deal that I can use but that's pretty much it.

    list of things yet to do:-

    accounts for 2008/09 Nooooooooo
    file online tax form Noooooooooo
    hang littleys clean washing in wardrobe
    take down curtains & rail
    empty TD and fold
    empty WM and put in TD
    sort tea
    read bumph that came with pet insurance
    small Asda shop *rolls eyes* not for me though in my defence, going for supplies for a slow cooker for an old lady who's got one but can't chop veg and is a veggie. We're going to make quorn chicken casserole tomorrow.

    Cuppa time....

    Im on a couple of others - declutter, weightloss old style way, a gardening one, grocery challenge (which reminds me, I need to show NSD for today) and sealed pot challenge. None are as chatty and friendly as this one.

    That's not to say that others arent friendly, just that this one is more so.

    And although we had a bit of a turn the other day re posting non-flying stuff, most people are happy to chat as well as fly. Just need to post something flying related as well.

    So, all done today, so the nearest to flying I can come just now is to say Im going to declutter a cup of tea and then finally write the first chapter of my new book (deadline for the first draft - end of July; work done so far - erm, not a lot!)

    I have an Amazon parcel (gift for DD from my sis - her birthday's tomorrow so I stuck a wish list on my account ;) then she doesn't know what she might be getting ;) anyhoo in it there's a code for Ocado - £15.00 off a £60 delivery for a first order... anyone want?

    I venture in to the arms, post on consumer and legal threads too and occasionally chip in elsewhwere if stuff catches my eye. I'm on Thriftlady's preservers thread but I feel this is my online home...

    I'm curious - what sort of stuff do you write?

    I am by the way in the middle of the bathroom cleaning - just came down for the vacuum and just wanted to see what had been posted - honest!
