    I need to do my toilet of terror.

    Will hold off though as not expecting any visitors, which of course means that someone will imminently arrive at the door, needing to use my facilities.........

    On playbook while I watch man u on sky on lappy. Sky sports news on in background - the delay is amazing! Keeps buffering though which is annoying :( just changed quality to medium and that seems to have worked :cool:

    Need to work out how to open threads in new tab, also get to last unread - a bit time consuming at the moment! And the predictive text freaks me out:eek:

    Sorry to disappoint Gally no chickens but the doodle would love a few to chase round the garden!!:rotfl:
    My friend in the country has chooks so I often get eggs complete with free poop and feathers! They are totally different from shop bought eggs and the colour of the yolks are almost flourescent and no we don't live near Dounray!!

    :eek: I've seen your multi-coloured cakes before - remember the Battenburg :rotfl:.

    So, money arrived from selling the fund-I-did-not-own :D. Nicely tucked away in bank :T.

    Been sorting out btl bank account. All mortgages, btl bills and reg savers etc now coming out of there (or will be from next month, I expect too late for one bill as just received form yesterday and sending back today). Have decided that any money that arrives in the second half of the month stays there until there is enough to pay month end bills. This month that will be 2.6k, not including the 1 DD not changed :eek:. With money set up to go in there automatically I need another £202 so 2 weeks rent will cover that. As long as they pay it........

    Friends here for weekend but off to play golf with Mr GG so I have house to myself :T.

    Ebay sales - 2 items out of 8 selling :(.

    Happy weekend :T.
