    Happy Birthday ME , I too love your avatar <drool>

    pooh hope you enjoyed belated xmas meal! Was it turkey :rotfl:

    toots - your gardening escapades are making me fell all spring like :)

    piggers - great news on the mortgage money, not so great on the missing purse money

    carlsberg - how nice to see you ? how are things in carlsbergland ?

    prettypennies - carpy news about your washer :(

    and good evvening to everyone else :)


    We spent all day shopping for a new fridge freezer. Total nightmare day, DH and I had a big row in Comet and I could have just cried, but we chose one in the end and then ordered it off the internet, so it will arrive on Friday. I decided to chuck out the cooked ham, peperami etc I bought yesterday as the garage (which is our temporary fridge) doesnt feel quite cold enough so they've been sitting around for 24hrs now a bit warm. Milk cheese yoghurts should be ok and I have frozen or eaten everything else LOL

    DH is doing my head in today. Ive just typed and then deleted a massive rant about him. Wont bore you with the details. He's gone to the pub at least to its nice and peaceful now.

    I did nothing off any list today as the kitchen still bore the signs of devastation from the cookathon and DS had a ton of homework to be helped with before I could even start on it. Then tomorrow morning we are at the hospital for DS next assessment then after school DS has still got homework to finish before Beavers so I doubt much will get done tomorrow either.

    I am off to bed now with a coffee a curly wurly and my cross stitch kit (abookmark for my Mum for Mother's Day so obv there is a deadline here!!!)
