    (first off Im going to rant a little sorry!)
    The car wouldn't start this morning so OH had to walk 5 miles to work (oh woe is him ;)) he mutter something about a wire going to the engine not 'catching' so it wont go just chugs, I just nod and smile when it comes to cars lol. So that may cost something to fix. Then the postie turned up :T and delivered some papers I ordered and returned Furrypig's March ATC with a no postage paid stick even though there's a stamp, so I've re-enveloped that and got it ready for sending that is after I go down to the post office and do a bit of ranting.
    In the meantime a strike of niceness hit me (not often that happens:p) so I decided if OH is going to get the car sorted I'll give it a hoover and clear the rubbish, but when I opened the boot I found 3 parcels of mine he hasn't sent! So I'm sat here plotting waiting for him to come in from work and I'll drop little hints to see if he can work out that I know :rotfl:
    OAP + Tiny you'll get your prizes soon I promise I just need to kill OH first lol

    Lyndach MEN!!! Aren't they annoying... Tut (rolls eyes) your oh sounds like mine, I have to be on his back reminding him all the time and if I need him to take something somewhere for me, I have to leave it in a bag on the front door handle so he won't miss it on the way to the car.. that's not to say he will remember to take it to where it should go once he gets it to the car!!!still, I don't suppose they can help it, they can only think of one thing at a time, bless!! ;)
    Lei How did the jelly baby blinged holder go down? I bet your friend loved it.. :D How much did you charge in the end?

    Lyndach, no worries I have one like that too, he gets smacked regularly for forgeting to obey me!!!! you would think after 48 years (well in 3 weeks it will be) I would have him better trained.

    Off to watch master chef back later

    If you have been smacking him for 48 years and he is still not obeying then I think he likes the smacking lol!!! Only joking!:rotfl:

    :rotfl::rotfl: at OAP and PONR - I've learnt that if I want anything done in a hurry I do it myself :rotfl:

    Just blogged tonights make and some pics from the weekend (mostly animals :))

    Forgot to say good luck with the DT call Rainmac - seems to be quite a difficult thing to break into but fingers crossed :D

    Just realised it's Tuesday again x stitch update may be late this week as we've had a Bank Holiday so it only feels like Monday ;)

    Will catch up properly tomorrow as I am falling asleep so everything is being looked at but not actually registering! :)
