    Thanks guys. I truly couldn't have done it without everyone's help though. I was so un-assertive before FL regarding all of this, and that has been a definite change! You are all brilliant! :A:A:A

    Ooooh, and have some mice pies too :)

    Err... head or tail?:rotfl: Or did you really mean mince?:D

    Anyroad, I think I'm possibly recovering from a second virus caught after getting a secondary infection after the first virus. Spent most of yesterday in bed as it was the only place I was comfortable and didn't cough. Today, I have the energy level of a very tired sloth, whereas yesterday, it was a kn... exhausted sloth;)

    However, most of Christmas is sorted and just needs wrapping. :j

    Sockdrawer - it's good isn't it?

    My skill (now) is properly cleaning a room - very quickly. Because of my re-think (revelation almost) re carp (ie 'beautiful ornaments) and getting those occasional, but necessary 'extra' jobs done!

    Sorry I've been a bit AWOL recently - too busy studying and running to fly every day then trying to catch up at the weekend.

    In the process of cooking a roast dinner for later on, vanilla cake is made and cooling alongside rhubarb compote. Gingerbread stuffing made ready to cook later.

    Meaning the kitchen is being left for this week and I'm off to collect a couple of things from the shops, sort the HHI out, washing hokey cokey, finish off the bedrooms list then try and fit in time for a recovery bath before dinner if I have chance alongside sweeping and mopping the floor in the kitchen and bathroom

    3hrs to go - let me see how far I can get!

    all my receipts sorted and verified.
    2 verifications for quidco done (note to self - they WON'T verify if you don't put N/A in the relevant box AS WELL AS the receipt number)
    Now I'm going to shred them

    and make a clock
