    Lydia, people help because they want to, not because they're looking for something in return. Just accept it graciously and realise that you will give it back one day. Enjoy it while you can.

    One more sleep :D

    Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

    How can you sleep at a time like this?
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    The same enigma posted on every popular thread. Would you like chips and gravy with your spam Pastures;)? Have reported. Poor missk, would probably rather be getting ready for her important day than sorting out f'wits like that.

    Mammoth painting weekend over. All four bedrooms now painted. DS and DD chose their own colours.

    My room: yellow (not too bright). Needed two coats of white first to cover the previous colour, but looks good now.
    DS: unimaginably bright green. Took ages because although it had been cream, it was awful anaglypta wallpaper that was hard enough for adults to get decent coverage on, let alone the two kids doing most of the painting in that room: DS himself (10) and my friend's DD (11).
    DD: one wall each of lilac, yellow, blue and a really bright red. Looks a lot better than I expected it to. My friend took charge of that room, and DD helped increasingly effectively as the weekend went on.
    Spare: blue. The only one we didn't have to do all of, just the new wall.

    I'll try to post some pics tomorrow.

    I am going down with a cold and don't feel at all ready for the removers tomorrow, but my friend assures me it will all be fine, so I'm trusting her to make sure it is. At least they are only moving downstairs tomorrow, so we've got tomorrow evening to get the upstairs ready for them.

    Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
    Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.

    Sorry, not keeping up ATM, but good luck to Lydia & Miss K today, and as Young Mr Grace used to say in 'Are You Being Served?' "Well done, you're all doing very well!" :)
