    Has anyone used 'Top up TV' or heard much about it? Trying to lower our tv package even further and wondered if this was an option?

    We have bats in out loft...local council came out and looked up there..we are not allowed to get rid of them but TBH,they don't bother us...we only see them on summer evenings around dusk when they fly round the drive...

    No snow here,very bright and sunny but cold first thing.....DH having a fit 'cos he just couldn't stop fiddling with the Mini paintwork and now the clearcoat has reacted in some way and is bubbling up so he is stomping round yelling about it in a nark..............waiting for my BIL who is a bodyshop manager to call back with advice......
    Debt-free...and staying that way...

    i put 'free knitting machine patterns' into Google and it came up with loads of sites Claire - this is just the first one on the list (click on 'patterns' on the left hand menu and there are baby patterns in there).
