    Matelot, sounds like you know what you want with it. Good luck with your purchase.

    The stuff for the tip is mostly just old electrical stuff such as a broken fan and dvd player, so it isn't stuff the council would collect and I can do it easily in the car, it is just doing it that seems to be the problem!!

    I certainly have Beanie, looking forward to a lie in next Sat as haven't managed one this weekend and i'm not quite used to the early mornings again yet. Its so good to be back though, I've missed the old place more than I think I realised.
    The house is definitely suffering though, looks like a tornado hit. Ah well, at least I'm working again :)

    Rescued from page 7!!

    I am really fed up of this weather (and I know we haven't had it anywhere near as bad as our friends in the north!) but I just wish we could have some sunshine or just for it to stop raining for a while. The winter months have seemed never ending.

    Busy at work at the moment, which is better than having nothing to do, and that does mean that the days go quicker which is always good as the weekend beckons.

    Happy hump day everyone.....
