    Bitsy - with the kids food - if it's leftovers that can be made into another meal the following day, pop them in a plastic box and STRAIGHT into the fridge. If it's something that you won't be able to save for future use then sprinkle with washing up liquid and straight into the bin! ;)

    EEEkkkk!!!! Just checked internet banking .............


    ............. better make it a frugal frugal weekend - bit squeaky, but doable I think.

    So cleaning, de-cluttering and gardening it is then.

    You can do it MG! :T :T

    Guess what?? Just found the drill :D :j :j :j :j :j :j Mr Daffs was staring behind the sofa, like I did last night, while I was in the kitchen, busily explaining all your techniques for finding it (visualising where we would put it etc). Was about to get the torch out of the car for some advanced searching, when Mr Daffs steered me back into the kitchen again - he'd found the damn thing and put it in the middle of the kitchen floor, and I'd walked ROUND it about 5 times :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    (it was behind a mirror propped up against the sofa - the same sofa I was sitting on when I told friends we'd lost it :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:)

    :D

    That reminds me, what happened to the printers letters?

    I have lost a vital piece of paperwork, namely lease on the flat. Can find every other piece of paperwork to do with flat that I DONT need but not that. Solicitor wanted £24 to write to land registry for copy. I phoned the solicitor who did the buying of my flat. One lease winging its way to me free of charge because they are not sure they ever sent it. I know they did because it clearly states that Moo is not allowed to live there!!!

    I too need to crack on with decluttering.

    Evening all, I've been feeling like hell for two days, can't put my finger on it - dr says migraine but I have no headache. Hope it passes soon, have a lot of revision coming my way until the dreaded exam in June :(

    ((((((((gemmzie))))))))))

    Oh dear Cherisong! At least they're sending you another one :D Printers letters are still sat in a basket waiting for me to do something interesting with them - it's very low down the list of Important Things To Do - which means it'll probably happen pretty quickly while I'm putting off something else :rotfl:

    Good Evening MG

    MG thankyou so much for washing the quilt for me you didn't have to :) but thanks again, saved me doing it :)
    I cannot get on the other side as I don't have the link on this laptop. So I'll have to pm you on here.

    Will I'm hobbling around like a good un :( done way too much, now I'm paying for it :( Although I have really enjoyed myself.

    Am going to concentrate on the quilting the weekend and see if I can get the one finished I have started cutting out.
