When life sends you Lemons, just bake a cake

taxi, please don't worry i'm fine just investigating some surgery.

Uni, i think you can be forgiven, you've got lots on your plate and i don't expect to receive anything.

got home to a parcel at the back gate, looks like a marketing ploy, moving in pressy from the estate agents/ gas folk. it is to our addy but not to us, hmmmmm i wonder if we should open it.

going to start playing with my spreadsheets, i tried a last ditch attempt with Quicken but it just doesn't work so i'll transfer the data file across to the new machine and start playing.

don't think i got much done off my list, but we did get Mr LT's car MOT'd, just need to transfer the money over to cover the costs.

hope everyone has a lovely weekend ahead of them.

you might not be expecting anything LT but sometimes its nice just to get something that isn't bills/marketing/spam etc.

too right uni, which reminds me can you pm me your address please?

hope everyone is enjoying the sun at the moment.

We've taken the opportunity this weekend to play with the pond and get everything working. Unfortunately the pump and filter don't work, which i guess is the reason that they had turned it off. We've had a tour of the local area and found our nearest place for such things and have replaced them, Mr LT will get them all fitted and working tomorrow whilst i'm at work, unfortunately he had to go to work this arvo

I also treated us to some plants as it looks like whats in there is as dead as a dodo. Can't wait until we can get some fishies to go in there, we're going to run everything for a little while, until the man has some in the shop (he's just building the tanks at the moment).

Hope that the quote for the bathroom isn't too scary.

Hope alls well?

Glad you've had a fun time outside this weekend, sounds like you're enjoying the new house and paddling in the pond is to be highly recommended!

:-)

Chev the first quote is very scary but we're shopping around for some more quotes. Just need to pull our fingers out and speak to the latest person about what we want.

Pippi, the pond looks deep enough to have a bath in, in fact we did laugh that we could replace it with a hot tub with a little bit more digging.

I've been given the go ahead for my extreme food plan so i appologise for any grumpiness in the upcoming weeks.

When do you start your food plan LT? Do you have to give us all foods?

Glad you had a lovely time sorting out the pond. It'll be lovely to have fish in there. Maybe mummy duck could bring her babies to visit? All 26(?) of them :rotfl:

just catching up! Hope all goes well on the diet! flipping things...I am currently on the no-need-to-diet-got-penicillin diet!
As others have said cant believe youve been in for a month! Does bathroom have to be done now or could you put the money towards mavis and get sommat in the next batch of sales?! Just a thought!
Love the duck...poor woman she must be shattered!!
