Morning, morning.

I missed the end of DC yesterday so will just have to say: enjoy the sunshine, be restrained when you hear the ice cream van come down your street and a happy day to everyone who reads.

I'm off to the sorting office for two envelopes "too big to fit through your letter box". Must be big as normally they just mangle them through :D

Also off to the bank, pharmacy, post office, library and to a BBQ by 2pm!

*******whoosh******** I better stop sitting here - I've been here since before 8! :o

    Morning all

    Feeling a bit zombiefied this morning - just dropping off to sleep last night when a fight broke out in an over the road neighbours house....police with sirens, dog squad and lots of shouting and tussles ensued.

    Have just booked train tickets for next Saturday :j, going to take DD's to London for a girlie day. DH's parents are taking him out for a few hours and will sit with him until we get back. Have tickets for The Dungeons and then off to Primarni in Oxford street to battle the crowds.:T

    Back from sorting office who advised me to tell postie I was happy with him hiding my post in the garden. As I came home I spotted the chap himself so will hopefully no longer have trips to the sorting office every week or two. I presume he will still put letters through the letter box tho :D

    Have been to bank and to market for cheap fruit. Now to pack post office parcel and do post office, library and pharmacy trip!


    Then will wake up DH :rotfl:

  • Hi all i too have already been out & been busy before it gets too hot, taken the dog out for a walk via the shops so killed 2 birds with one stone. Then nipped into town to pay in some money, didn`t look at any shops as i can`t afford owt anyway. I`ve only got another two more years of living like this (hopefully!) then i should be debt free.

    Please god let that be true....

    DH about to shower before we go out.

    I've done post office, library, pharmacy and not spent any money in charity shop!

    Also, collected my castor oil from the sorting office this morning so will be able to try the oil cleanse method tenmah recommended. My skin is all bumps and spots again so I'm hoping it will help.

    What's the oil cleanse method Katsu?

    hi all by the way!

    just walked out in the garden barefoot on the grass. It was lovely until a bee dive bombed me, I screamed swore and ran inside.
