    buy him some of the wireless controllers with rechargable packs and the charger.. we have 3 controllers and 5 battery pack.. 2 on charge.. 3 ready to play.. :D Happy Daddy!!

    :o I broke one of those ones... :o

    We do have one "play and charge" one and one older wired one which we use for the two of us, but a lot of our socialising is based around a "we provide the games, you provide the beer" concept! :rotfl:

    hi all

    well my flying plans for this week are in chaos.... ihad totally forgotten that we were having a new wooden floor put down in living room this week - DH had arranged to help with the labour to make it cheaper - BUT DH has cracked 2 ribs when he fell on the ice last week so now i have spent the last two days as a joiner's apprentice so not only has no flying been done our house is full of sawdust and mess, and we are sleeping, and cooking in the holiday cottage next door...

    so the owners of the holiday cottage are coming up at the weekend so i will have to clear up that house and try and clear up our house of sawdust and put all the living room furniture back before any flying can be attempted.... but when it is finished at least we will have a lovely clean and swept, and oiled new oak floor:j

    Hello all.

    Castri :eek:OMG (((HUGS))) and make sure to press charges!

    Well, I finally finished Tuesday's tasks - then pasted today's list over the top on my Word document before I'd copied Tuesday onto here.:wall: So you'll just have to take my word for it that I did all of Tuesday's tasks that are applicable here.

    My head isn't just a shed, it's a ricketty old lean-to that's in imminent danger of falling apart completely just now, and tbh, I am having the week from Hel.:(

    Piggers fwiw, I've had experience of a house fire, many years ago, so I'm very careful about having operational smoke alarms.
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    LW methinks you've been overdoing things a little.. please do slow up a bit. Am sending lots of spoons winging their way to you! Hope the week improves for you.

    Electricity question:

    I have a little mystery for you all to help with. From our usage I can see that our usage goes up betwen 2-4 am and then again higher between 4-6 am dropping back to where it should be at 6am. What do you think could cause it?
    Nothing is on a timer switch
    No storage heaters

    Really confusing and short of getting up at 3am not sure how to work it out.


    Is it a backup or scan on your computer(S) that is scheduled for that time?


    Castri - Oh my. Look after yourself.

    Well home from work to find 2 piles of cat sick and 2 poos in the litter tray. House smells a dream.......
    Just having a coffee then off I go......

    ETA - I cleaned up the sick and poo BEFORE the coffee. I'm not a total slob :-)
    Yesterday is history
    Tomorrow is a mystery
    Today is a gift
    That's why we call it 'The Present'

    Thanks sammiell for the info, never been round before but hoping to have a mooch round with DS before his last session in the afternoon before bringing him home.

    I am desperately trying to get some inspiration to change my middle room round to make it feel a bit more cosy but it isnt working and its an odd shape room, and I cant just move thigns around to try it out as it involves moving a piano! DH isnt much help either, his response was why did you move the piano the last time! As if I'd remember anyway.

    Brought trees down and decs onto landing but cant do anything til I decide how the room will be :mad:, I annoy myself sometimes!
    Mortgage, we're getting there with the end in sight £6587 07/23, otherwise free of the debt thanks to MSE help!
