    Pigpen, I don't think TL is included in the free ebay listing day

    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=2276431&highlight=turbo+lister

    Edit:- it seems that, it may be included now, as ebay have altered their T & C for the 2 days.

    Did my HHC 1-1.30 and spent a lot of it sorting the utility and defluffing/declogging the tumble drier so that it now dries stuff rather than makes it steam slowly. Also managed to smash a beer bottle that was on he side to go out for recycling so have swept the floor, amazing how far glass an travel. Have unloaded and re-loaded DW, WM and TD. Still not plucked up courage to stick head in oven to clean it tho! Got sidetracked afterwards cos Tesco direct have got a sale on so have ordered Adams big birthday pressie - a lowloader with 2 jcb's on it reduced from £60 to £24 but card wouldn't work online so had to go to store to order but means I have saved delivery charge.

    Having a quick brew and sew then planning on a HHC at 5-5.30
    Mortgage £119,533 going down slowly
    Emergency fund £1000/£1000
    Savings for big things £9017

    Woohoo! I've completed a list on the actual day!! :j

    Star please Toots :D

    Monday ~ Kitchen - DONE!! :D


    Meeting with the pension man was good and he couldn't suggest anything better than what I'm doing with my money at the moment apart from considering Income Protection or Critical Illness cover. I'm impressed with the projection for my pension - not a little as I was expecting :D

    poohbear - ouch! hope you are ok

    MOAM - glad DH is out of theatre; hope is isn't in too much pain x

    Hello All.

    Before I forget MOAM hope DH is ok, glad he is out of theatre. I've forgotten everything else, sorry:o

    Had another xray and the bone is back where it should be but there isn't as much healing as there shoud be:( It may just be because I fell on it or because the bone was out of place. Going back next week to have it checked again.

    Toots thanks for letting me off the cupboards, I won't have to sue MSE now if I had fallen:rotfl:
    Lots of flying here, the kids have done loads:eek: DS1 even cleaned the toilet! And he is cooking tea (He will wash his hands first though:D)
