    Hi all,nice n sunny here.....got off to a bad start-paid extra for DHL to do a sat morning delivery, only to find card on the mat saying they had been but got no reply (for the 2nd time this week-grr!)I called them up a few days ago and said, look we live in a biggish house, it takes a minute or two to get to the door-with 3 cars on the drive it's quite obvious there's someone in...but no,saturday morning is "job n away" so the delivery man only waits a nano second then f***s off.....so I had to drive 15 miles and back to the depot to collect the parcel I had paid over the odds for !!!!!! Right, rant over.................
    Whats this about Paps dolls siggy then???

    Oh SRM....sorry, but had to giggle at the thought of you high-tailing it from the west wing, swinging round the banisters only to find a card on the door mat when you finally got to the front door.

    See...I've finally found something good about living in a tiny house - I won't ever miss a DHL delivery.

    No, seriously though, it is very frustrating I know. And even more insulting when you've paid the extra.
    YOUR = belonging to you (your coat); YOU'RE = you are (I hope you're ok)

    really....it's not hard to understand :T

    When PAP lost a certain amount of weight, she treated herself to one of the dolls she collects - Momji I think they are called.

    Someone has pm'd her something about it which has made her take them out of her signature.

    Are they the Japanesey dolls that she was trying to find the rare one of and someone found it for her online? Cos they're really cute and really lovely. Stupid people.

    OK, am gona sort the magical drawer of half-dead socks out, then change the bedding, then put some washing on. See you all in a bit

    SRM, I hate DHL - they sent me a card through the post to say that they'd tried delivery (obviously they hadn't otherwise they wouldn't have posted the card!) then sent it back before I had chance to rearrange it.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
