    Right going to bed in a moment. Munchki have you got any relaxation techniques to help you slow that mind down and get to sleep easier? or a book to read?

    cagneuk - have you joined the Facebook group for £100 to £10,000? We started a list on there of people's blogs - here. I'll follow your blog when I work out how to!

    munchki - wow, well done on all the interviews. Seems like Scotland has put fresh fight in you. I'll have my fingers and everything else crossed for you all day tomorrow.

    Wayne - website is looking good. I might be coming to you for advice on mine soon :) Oh and we had those big old computers at my school too - you didn't happen to go to Chaucer did you?

    Paula - absolutely love the necklace, you are very clever!

    Saucy - any chance of me placing an order for a catty notebook for jotting my bright ideas down in? I love black cats!!

    I did a new post for my blog last night reviewing a cat toy. I am thinking that I will do this every so often to make a change from talking just about my cats themselves. So if anyone has anything catty they'd like reviewing, let me know. I'm not sure if there is much on this thread that would fit in that category, but if there is, let me know.

    Right, back to the planning - I've been really brave and started contacting suppliers and had some really nice replies. There are some really nice people out there!!

    when Saucy makes you a catty notebook you could do a review for her!!! Haven't seen her around much today, hope shes ok.
    Life is a work in progress

    Munchki quickly write down the jist of your ideas and save them for tomorrow night.
    Can't really give you great relaxation techniques in such a short space but some simple ideas.
    First lie on your back and squeeze your toes up as tight as you can ad hold for a few seconds and let go. work up through your muscle groups so legs. stomach, shoulders, arms, hands, face and then just start focusing on your breathing count 1 on in breath and 1 on out breath. then 2 in breath and 2 on out breath etc until you reach ten. then start again from 1. making sure you count each number on the in breath and then on the out breath.
    Your mind will keep wandering and often you will go past ten in which case just start again from 1.
    keep going to ten and starting again from 1 and focusing on your breathing and the numbers.
    Might not be enough to send you to sleep but keep going for quite a while and you should be calmer.
    Before you start make sure you are pratically ready for sleep and have not got to get up and do anything.

    Whitfield we looked at haddington gardens but too small. the likes of speklewood court etc are just too bad IMO but then alot of my perception could be from the past because I have not actually been there in like, forever.


    heyLilac, speckledwood court was my first ever flat that i bought, it was a whole £14750 - one bedroom with own door and garden. that was when they done them all up and sold them off. i loved it up there!
    havent read back much - hope everybody ok! spent the last two hours making a shoe out of sugarpaste! aaaaaaaaaaaaaargh but done it, will catch up later!

    Joey, I'd love too :) That's cheered me up a bit, thank you.
