    That's brilliant Claire! And the bathroom's for your health, which is far more important than money so it's worth every penny. And you've done it the cheapest way you can.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
  • WOWEEEEEE!

    6 Newbies de-lurk, oh happy days, love it! *waits for the biscuits they have most definitely brought to be offered*

    Have had a nap and a bath, now really must get day started! My tea from last night (Mince and Tattie Towers or Assembled Mince and Tatties, which every you prefer ;)) was lush and made enough for 2 so froze one, there's a meal for when the fridge is empty ready!)

    DH just text and said that he has made enough at work to bring home so dont have to make tea now :) Happy Bunny.

    In other news, just had left over sausages and HM coleslaw for lunch, was v v v nice. *parp*

    hmmmmm, anything more exciting in my life other than food? *ponders* Nope.

    Going to get dressed now, venture to la banque to pay in money from last night and hopefully pay off £100 to DH. Hmmm, think will put something in signature debt related, I dont normally as is too depressing but this should go down quite quickly! *whooshes off to User Control*


    Hi Maz! Didja like the joke I sent ya?? Didja? Didja??
