    Sadly, yes, I will this time as I have a workman here (hopefully for not much longer, lol)........but I've had stick from my friends about other occasions he's popped over, tee hee!! I would blush, but I won't, I do have a reputation to maintain ;):)

    Got to love working from home on occasion and having a boyfriend in the same village who can't work at the mo! Things could all change so I'll make the most of it whilst I can :)

    Hang about a minute - what are tea towels meant to be used for if it's not fanning the smoke alarm?! ;)
    I love this :D

    ANYONE WHO DOESN'T HAVE A WORKING SMOKE ALARM - SORT IT OUT, TODAY. BEFORE YOU GO TO BED TONIGHT. OH, AND WHILE I'M SHOUTING - WHEN YOU BREAK DOWN ON THE HARD SHOULDER OF THE MOTORWAY, GET OUT OF YOUR BL00DY CAR! YES, EVEN IF IT'S RAINING! :mad:

    And I approve of this, even tho I'm one of the ones being shouted at :o:o:o sorry EH - I do happen to have one up here already tho, honest.

    lots of fun here today. There is nothing wrong with doing a bit of window shopping where men in uniforms are concerned.

    EH agree on both counts. The other thing I shout about is a ladies thing and I dont want to embarrass Z ;)

    I think Z is a pretty unshockable kind of chap, he's probably a fireman on the quiet ;)

    I have met Z - DFW meet 2 years ago - and can confirm he would look good in a fireman's uniform ! ;)

  • Sorry been a bit slow catching up here.

    Had to laugh at smoke alarms when we moved here there was a burglar alarm connected to the police but it kept going off for no reason so we disconnected it from the police one night it went off at 3am and we couldn't turn it off so OH in the rain on a ladder went up and cut the wires to the box it would stop and then immediately start again he cut every wire he could find until eventually it stopped meanwhile my Mom and the eldest twins who were about 7 then slept through blissfully unaware so not sure how good a smoke alarm would be for them because boy was it loud.

    Just thought I'd add to this, when DS was at junior school, I would tell him that he could invite friends round for tea if he wanted, but he always said no. Eventually he told me that he would rather not have his friends have food that was cooked according to whether the smoke detector went off or not. I thought that was the only way you knew things were properly cooked :-)
