I really don't.. I am the stroppiest person on the planet..

ooh spare marbles.. I could do with some of those.. definitely lacking in the marble department I am!!

I have decluttered 18 films of fmy HD onto the external so I have room to downloa more lol.

Chimps and OH back.. DS3 has a bandaged hand after slicing it on a blade or the ice he's not sure. Tiddles screamed every time she went near the ice so poor OH is most distressed! lol

1x WM done.. just waiting for OH to bring the basket of black stuff down and that will be one.
1x load of dry stuff folded
I filled another binbag with rubbish.. from downstairs this time!

I also agree on the coffee. We have a Dolce Gusto machine and at 20p a cup it isn't cheap but there is no way I would change back to instant.

We have a DG machine too. I admit I drink instant in the mornings when quantity is wayyyyy more important than quality, the rate I pour it down my neck in the first hour I'm awake, I don't think I even taste it! I do like a macchiato in the afternoon though, 'bout 2.55 is the perfect time before collecting the children!

Mind you it costs a lot more in a coffee shop.
I'm still sticking to my grinder and cafetiere, but I do get tempted from time to time.
Then I look at the prices and decide I can't justify it.

Trying to work through the shelves and filing cabinet and apply the 'would I pack it' rule. I seem to have saved a lot of 'mementos' aka 'bits of rubbish' from when I was working and trying to convince myself that most of it belongs to another time and another person.

I bought DH a grinder and a new percolator for christmas, and a stove top espresso maker and we've got a cafetiere. We rather like coffee too :rotfl:. I'm currently being tempted by a beautiful red tassimo machine on Amazon. It's calling my name, but I really can't justify any more coffee makers

Have dusted and de-webbed sitting room
