Not at all, my boys still can't aim into the flipping toilet. :mad:

Morning all

Happy Birthday Macpep - eat cake, drink fizz and have a great day

Helped my friend prepare for her school meeting. Any spare good luck vibes for her getting a place for her DD at another school greatly appreciated.

I have just had my annual phone call from my local councillor to invite me on the annual river clean, which long standing Flyladies will remember I've done before!
( I accidentally went waist deep one year *shiver* and drip dried...:rotfl:)

BUT I was supposed to go to the LSB's and meet the parents tomorrow. I can do that anytime - I can only river clean (with support) once a year so I hope he'll be understanding...the river clean is SERIOUS flying and my annual *put a bit back into my local environment* thing. Oh and we get fish'n'chips for lunch, free:money:

:rotfl: So remember this, I thought you was only in it for finding a man in the river so good on you for continuing :A

Vanilla - sorry to hear about DS1, I hope he will be better soon.

Hellyboo - GOOD LUCK!!!!

Well, the gas man came to do the meter and he said he would fit a slow one!:rotfl::rotfl:

He also recommended that I had a new condensing boiler put in as mine is rather old (over 20yrs!). I am in receipt of DLA and incapacity benefit so I should be able to qualify under the Warmfront scheme.
Has anyone any experience of their boilers? I have heard some iffy reports about Warmfront recently.

I'm part way through the bathroom but feel the need for a cuppa so will continue after that

seafarers_wife

well got paid today and have reduced my overdraft so instead of it being at £2200, its now at £1900 and will be reduced even more next payday. hopefully i will have it cleared before he gets home, i suppose if we did need to postpone the wedding at least i wouldnt have an overdraft and just my credit card to worry about.

right off to do some flying, have made a loaf of bread so far this morning. made the dough last night and left it to rise overnight and its turned out ok.
