    No you're not a vegetarian if you eat any animal or fish, so do not insult genuine veggies by calling yourself one! :mad:

    Hi everyone :wave:

    I've come to a big decision...going to put the flat on the market!! Going to get a few estate agents round within the next week or two and get the place up for sale. After that OH and I are going to rent for the first couple of years while we pay off the rest of our debts and build up a big-ish deposit, not to mention decide where we want to settle down! Think it'll be a lot better all round and feeling a lot more positive about things. :)

    Today I've also:
    - taken leftovers for lunch
    - put coins in the jar
    - tidied round
    - decided not to go out for dinner tonight with old work mates :o
    - sorted my outfit for ascot - half price dress, cardi I already had, sister's fascinator on loan and quite cheap but v pretty shoes :D
    - write out some wedding invites and sort the ones that can be hand-delivered to minimise 'spensive 'large letter' postage! ;)

    Littlekel! Geocaching sounds just fab! I love that sort of thing. Going to google it now!

    Determined new ms - 22 days is nowt! Will be gone before you know it! Good on you for getting it cleared chickadee! :beer:

    Just got back from a long weekend away - not very MSE :o

    But we don't really 'do' holidays as a rule (strange I know, but would rather just be at home, megastress jobs)

    But, since I have been back I have:

    HC on for line drying (hopefully) tomorrow

    Seen to plants and animals - picked tomatoes, raspberries and mangetout :D DD2 looked after everything while we were away, but obviously didn't eat much HG produce :(

    HM supper from stores (obviously, see above)

    Found a recipe in one of the second hand cookery books I bought whilst away for an Indian fish curry that I fancy trying tomorrow :j

    Put odd £1 coins left over from trip away into separate purse for the dreaded station car park for work - if you have the right coins, it is £1.50 cheaper per day :eek: Oh the joys of living in a rural area - but it is so lovely in the summer, I shouldn't complain :o BUT I jolly well do in the winter - all that yucky mud :rotfl:

    Nice to see new posters on board :j
    Have a nice evening everybody :j
