    Triker - I had a similar problem. I contacted my former employer to ask them to make arrangements to collect it within 14 days at their expense or I would destroy it. They ignored me and I have now used it as firelighting material. They were supposed to collect it when I was on maternity leave seven years ago!

    Dusty - my green bin is empty and they come on Friday. Need to fill it if it just stops raining for a few minutes. Gardeners World came in the post and I would rather sit and read that though.

    Anyone for a HHC at 13.00?

    Wednesday ~ Kitchen and Dining room All done Toots :j:D
  • Hi everyone

    Sent DS3 off to school today armed with a letter about not doing PE or running around at break. He also has 2 fastmelts in case his mouth starts hurting, but to be honest I don’t think it will. He doesn’t seem to have had many problems at all with it so far. I would have thought any pain would have presented itself by now – his op was on Sunday. So, fingers crossed he has a good day at school.

    You do a self-administered test first, and if you pass that, you get invited to a supervised test.

    SANDY WHERE ARE YOU? I didn't say anything yesterday, as I do understand the need to back away sometimes and lick your wounds in private for a bit; but I'm getting worried about you now.

    Thanks to getting today's list early, I got a good start on it. Just a little more to do; so I'll post again when I'm all finished.:)
