ooooh I like the fireplace tiles. I am becoming less keen on my electric fire as time goes on!

Whip it out and get a real one, cheaper to run, heartwarming and a selling advantage when the time comes.

Bum! Just put an AF order in then saw the 10% off...but they had randomly stuck a fiver of credit in my account.

On the upside, got £10 M and S voucher from lovefilm.

I bet you got credit when I referred you, cos I never did. I think I placed an order after you that weekend. Oh well. If that is the case, at least it was given to someone.

OOh now I feel mean. I will email them and ask.

Hi


Thank you for your e-mail.


You were issued a credit for the Suzannes Dressing and Foxs Biscuits which were out of stock.


Kind regards

ho hum.

Woodburner is in, chimneys lined and new pots on, looks good. Have looked at remortgaging and looks possible.

Not done anything clever, but have been busy all day...

it is legal in the UK to "abort" babies up to 24 weeks, and after that if for medical reasons.

we need to change the law.
