Lois_E begins a long MFW journey

I hibernate it, but it's beginning to show its age, and it still takes a while to boot up - not very long, but certainly long enough to take off a coat and a pair of shoes. It would be quicker if I made it sleep instead of hibernate, but that would drain the battery, unless I left it plugged in, which would use electricity.

Well done on reducing the family loan...must be a good feeling.

Thanks MCI

Tonight, for a change to recent habits, I am going to sort out DS's food tech ingredients BEFORE going out for the evening. I am. I really am. I am NOT going to leave it until after I get home and all the shops are shut except the Tesc@ on the other side of town. I am NOT going to have to dash out before school tomorrow morning to get what he needs.

(I will even post on here when I've done it, just to prove that I did it in time.)

We've started to get things more locally when we only want a couple of items-like bread, milk, butter. If I go to Asd@ I end up spending between £15-£40 :eek: If I ask Mr tc to get it locally while he's out and about he only gets what we need-apart from the odd bar of chocolate.

I'll be watching for the update....

In the meantime I have: 4 sets of lecture notes to write up, one practical to complete, and one tutorial to complete, so we can compare later :A

Will hold you to that, Calfuray.
