Double Trouble but twice as nice

Karmacat

Good luck with the laptop, I hope it lasts - certainly sounds like you've done something right! And the Mothers' Union - eek! I have no idea what that might be like, but I'm trusting you to wear the right thing :rotfl:

I have a family diving story! Not very nice tho - one of my great uncles was a diver for the Mersey Docks and Harbour Board during the war he had some very gruesome retrievals .... I hope your OH was a sport diver, yes? :j

Hi DT .

We were watching a program last night about how they train the most elite divers in the US forces. They had them under the water in blacked out masks, pushing and shoving them, turning them upside down, removing the air supply to simulate bad weather and the worst they could face for half an hour, they take them to complete exhaustion and almost black out to show you can go further than you think. I'll stick to a paddling pool thank you very much :eek:.

Being a vicars wife must be less stressful and dangerous unless you have to choose between 2 parishioners cakes as to who bakes the best :rotfl:.

Not sure about less stress but certainly less dangerous and at least he is not away for a couple of months at a time. No I don't judge cake competitions far too risky :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Did think about getting t shirt made for OH's ordination which said on the back I don't do scones well I don't but I have made Mars Bar cake for tonight's installation of a new vicar:)

heres to hoping that your laptop lasts until you can afford to replace it..have a good lunch today it may be better then you expect.

Laptop is still sick foggy screen again this morning so I need to do something before it dies completely. Lunch not sure it will be better but I will survive. Working at the moment but dare not shut it down.

I have plenty of things to wear thanks to Souk.:j MU lots of old ladies chatting

No OH was a professional diver and he has some horror stories to share including one he shared on the way to Holyhead on Saturday that a diver died when he got stuck in an equalisation tunnel under the causeway won't be able to drive over it now without thinking about that:eek:

Laptop still having its moments DDs partner is going to look at it tonight think it is the inverter which thankfully are not dear to buy but may only be the wiring to it so going to check that first.

That is maybe just the shop- keep trying head office DT and it is a fab coat, i remember thinking how lovely it was when you bought it.:D

They may be out of stock online, but they may have stock in other stores and should be able to ring around and get you one IMO.

DT have you tried online at House of Fraser and John Lewis, Selfridges etc?

I will email head office again and give it a try.

Thanks
