^wow, really... so there is hope for me yet then.

That seems a lot for the microwave repair. I think I remember you saying that it was built-in though, as otherwise it would be cheaper to just buy a whole new microwave wouldn't it?!

I have just checked online and to replace with the same built in microwave would cost £370

It is a Smeg microwave

Hi everyone

What have you all been doing?

I went to the pub again lunchtime, it was deserted compared to a few weeks ago. Got caught out with wrong clothes for this weather, it was freezing out.

Hi Anglea

Your getting quite the lunch time socialite good on ya xx

Ive just been at work urgh

I know what u mean re this getting cold thing. Ive been absoloutly fine in just a cardigan until probably today when it really got quiet chilly!!

I am having a really huge clear out - ive got all my clothes from the garage on my dads bed and im forcing myself to make a decision with them - im sending a few to a few friends whose commented about certain things over the last few months but other than that its either a new home in my wardrobe/draws when i get them or finding new loving homes via a clothes bank. Im too lazy to go to an actual charity shop and they will do the same benefit going in the bank.

I could probably sell them and make some money on them, but i really dont have the time to do so. I also dont have the ability to go to the post office as regular as i should be doing if i was to take ebay on again.

Im having an indian tonight with a friend - nom nom.

Freezing here too. I went out in sandals! Waited 25 mins for a bus to come back home, one bus was missed out.

Got home to find that a hugh branch had fallen from a tree in the apartment grounds into the road outside and was blocking one half of the road. It was too large to be moved, fortunately someone had rung the council to see if they could deal with it. Thank goodness there was no-one walking past at the time. I believe that a car had to pull it's brakes on.

Yes - I hate the wind at night, I find it quite scary when I wake up because of it.

Hi girls, i havent seen you for ages- i have been in other forums,
anyway how are you all ? i hope ok...
not much to say really, i have been shopping in the past and returning items, but i havent done it in a long time. I just dont feel the need to shop at all right now, they only things i buy are for my little DD, she just keeps growing...she just turned 4 and she wears age 6-7 clothing .. size 11 shoes.
Im guessing i am just saving a bit for my driving lessons and just came 2 wks ago from a lovely holiday, we went to Madrid and decided to have another baby... I love baby things, cannt wait to get pregnant to start getting things in the sale, if we are lucky and get pregnant before January, i m sure i will get most of it then( well the big items)... xxx

Hi all

Morocha, welcome back :j Your DD is 4, you've been away from us for a long time.

Hi Ziggles, are you feeling any better now after your trip?

NGlady are you sorted with your clothes yet? It is strange that I'm going out more compared to before, it's not plain sailing though, tell you another time.

I could have gone out in the evenings too, DS asked twice this week about 5 mins before he was leaving, some unusual events he found at the last moment in the city, I was exhausted both times and couldn't have got ready that fast.

Fr, glad you weren't anywhere near that branch when it fell. Is the microwave working ok?

How is CL? Silly behaviour this week in BB. Everyone is getting on my nerves. OMG Jay and the shaver. Didn't he realise the mirror is two way?
