    Bed to myself would be bliss but would have two cats snuggled up instead and old cat insists on laying on top of me, no matter what position I'm in
  • I can't stand it...I don't produce my own body heat anymore, and I'm used to sleeping on his chest. I can't sleep in any other position...I'd be really screwed if we split up! He's said he will be home at ten past two but I doubt it...it's so far too walk for just an hour.
    I'm locking him in after this!
    I want a labrador! What is his/her name?

    Hi guys

    Just caught up !

    I use payperparcel courier about 15 times a week and they are great. £8.10 up to 30 kilos ( includes VAT) Fundamentally most of these companys use DHL. They just arrange the sale. They pre purchase thousands of deliveries, get them really cheap as buy in bulk, then sell them to you for a profit. Still cheaper than going through DHL directly. And most of these companies dont have the greatest customer service as their job essentially just involves transfering information from their system to DHLs. But I have never had a problem with payperparcel.

    Is everyone motivated for the weekend? Are you listing/ updating/ or doing something for Mothers Day?

    I'm planning for my first big car boot of the year next weekend. We are normally uber organised but its been a while since the last one so I need to dig out the pricing gun and display boxes.

    Also going to print out plastics brochures which I have been meaning to do for 18 months now.

    Cinema/shopping/meal planned for Sunday.

  • Awww, Money it seems like you are gonna have a brilliant weekend!

    I'm going to see OH's mum I think, and I always feel I should see mine, but I've already had three abusive answerphone messages this week so I'll probably send a card and some chocolates in the post, even if it really annoys OH.

    15 parcels a week? I hope one day I'm doing that, lol.

    It's great to hear from you, by the way :)

  • Hi Saucy.

    I wouldnt even bother sending the chocolates and card. Or at least eat the best ones then send the coffee ones.

    But then I am a very stubborn and harsh biatch who holds a grudge like you wouldnt believe. I dont suffer fools gladly. Blood relatives or not.

    Parcels are sent via my main business, which doesnt count for this challenge unfortunately. And I need to get that up to 40 a week really.

  • I hate coffee chocolates. And orange ones...I love revels, but I have to skeg them all with my teeth to check I don't get a nasty one, lol. OH moans though, he won't eat it after I've licked it, lol.

    I know I shouldn't do anything, and every year I say I won't, but I always do. Glutton for punishment springs to mind!

    Or a sweetheart Saucy. :) You are a lovely person with a big heart. I would love to say thats part of your problem and you need to focus on yourself more and your needs. But you know what, I dont agree with that, cos you are who you are and thats what makes you wonderful :T
