    That's weird. Your post says 8am, when my laptop and BBC breakfast say 7am........

    All my timings on everyone's posts are correct.

    Well, I *should* go out for a run....or start the ironing..........or clean the kitchen........or start tidying the living room and playroom.......

    But I'm going to read the paper and drink my coffee instead :D

    Is it me or have MSE forgot to turn the clock back???

    When I first logged on all the times were wrong, but it was my laptop. Once I'd fixed, and logged back in, everything was fine.

    macgirl, your party sounds fantastic - and how lovely of your OH, to make the treasure chest! I like the sound of the tree too. Your new kitchen sounds the same as my new kitchen, not enough storage space even tho its big - mine's not *quite* that big :D but big enough for me.

    And I love the Christmas tree thing too :j I used a small ash tree as my Christmas tree - painted it gold - tinsel is too heavy for that look, so I just have strings of beads with the decorations, it looks like the fairies have visited :) and I'll *have* to do it this year, as my mum is staying with me for part of the time, not me with her.

    Are you still reading your paper and drinking your coffee? Result, if you are :rotfl:

    i think it would be better to have the clocks go back at 2pm not 2am.....and for it to be compulsory for mums to have that hour as a pamper hour - the government can pay for us all to visit a spa for a much deserved treat.

    No?

    Gill - my laptop sets itself and was right.....oh well!

    Morning KC, I've been reading and have intermittent coffee breaks in between tidying and osrting. The house is looking a bit more ship-shape now :)

    Hi BTD :hello: Nice to see you - hope all's well with you!

    As for the compulsory spa hour - well Hypno....you don't even need to ask! There is a very nice spa near me that a few friends and I are threatening to visit soon :cool:
