Phew, I'm glad it's not just me that it annoys. I thought I was being highly strung this morning.

Pooky, that sounds lovely and you and your family deserve a treat.

What does it look like Pooky - the pool thing? I wanted one.............argh I want lots of things!

Also Pooky - you might know this, I have a desk - fake wood covered in what looks like paper made to look like wood do you reckon I could paint it?

Mmmm, I just had my homemade KFC for lunch It was yum - some of my co-workers are still going on about me setting up a lunch business

Pooky

Buffy - the pool is this one here - it's filling as I type...looks a decent enough size and deep enough to sit in comfortably and be in the water - not just waist deep.

As for the desk - yeah paint it - just give it a decent rub down with sand paper first to give it a key and use an undercoat (I use matt emulsion) then gloss on top - nice and hard wearing.

Just loading the pics of my bookcase to my blog now

Glad you're having a successful day Pooky. I'm not doing quite so well.

The further I go along the bathroom wall the more holes and crumbly the wall is (it is a partition one, not load bearing). The wall appears to be held up by the tiles not the other way round. The guy who fitted the carpet said 'It's alright provided you're putting new tiles up', but I'm a bit concerned. Fortunately have a friend coming round tonight who is doing my wardrobe door and my cooker hood so will run it past him.

Then the icing on the cake. One side of the computer desk has fallen off in a kind of fatal way (as in it's dead, not that it had a small child standing next to it at the time). I am currently sitting on my nice new carpet in the study and typing this on the side table for the garden bench. It all looks very feng shui but is not the most comfortable. Have found a £26 desk in Ikea so will require a visit in the next few days.

More money!

Can I just point out that a paddling pool that's just been filled with water is very, very, very cold.



Very pleased with it though, the bubbles are fab looks like a real jacuzzi

Pool looks like fun Pooky-few kettles of hot water will take the chill off it!!LMC-hope things ok with you.......
Only managed to run 3kms today-whats up with me?? Last week I was easily doing 5, this week I've done 4 and 3 !!!You runners out there..do new trainers make a difference? My calves are sort of cramping up,and my toes go numb (although that's normal for me in trainers)..getting a tad cheesed off,seem to be going backwards rather than forwards...

Evening,

Pooky, the pool and bookcase look fantastic.

SRM, I'm ok. I'm the only one in the office, so eating a large bar of mint aero and have cranked the volume up on the radio!

howdy chaps and chappesses...

boring as hell morning, highlight of the morning was watching 3 police cars turn up to take a guy from the library opposite.

Relaxing afternoon - I love my afternoons on my own

Wii Fit session was hard work today, it was making my right hip hurt on the side which has the damage from the accident. But, am determined to do a small amount of regular exercise daily.
