    Nope it ain't happening :rotfl:

    If I didn't have bad luck I wouldn't have any luck at all I reckon :rotfl:

    Went to lock the front door last night before we went to bed only for it to refuse to lock.......after struggling with it for a hour we put the kids weighted coat stand in front of it, my dumbells and the chain on and went to bed

    Phoned the company that fitted my windows and doors in May last year got no answer, googled them and found out they've went bust :mad::mad::mad: so now my guarantee ain't worth jack :mad::mad:

    Now waiting on a locksmith to come out and fix the blooming door thankfully some of the girls that attend playgroup are setting it up for me whilst I wait in for the hero who will fix my door......so far it'll cost me £60 :mad::mad::mad:

    On better news I've bought a new living room carpet gets fitted next Wednesday was £320 reduced to £160 :j as it was the last of the roll as my light grey carpet (who's great idea was that :rotfl:) is goosed so I have picked a charcoal coloured carpet :j matches my couch and my feature wall.........hubby started laughing at me last night cause I started looking at curtains he says I'm a nightmare :rotfl:

    Glad it all went well :T Eww to being awake though!

    That's a shame about the door. Hope it's not too expensive to sort.

    Yay to new carpets though!
