Well done on the marking Kit - put some latex gloves on, and a surgical mask, to get that last one done

I took my sister shopping at Mr T's this morning, pointing her in the right direction for lots of bargains , then dropped her off at the home to visit Mam at 11 am, before dropping her shopping off at her house. She text to say Mam was quiet but OK I will be going down about 4 pm

I've just been browsing MSE for bargains and coupons/codes since I got back

Update on the cat, who now curls up on my lap when I watch TV in the living room so I can't use my laptop in there anymore :rotfl::rotfl: I tell her off when she flexes her claws in my legs and hisses at me and she stops, coz she knows now that if she doesn't stop, she gets put outside ...... and she likes her comfort now

Mr 3Dogs rang me this morning from the car boot, asking if I wanted the good news or the bad news first. I asked for the good news and he said he was set up and weather OK ............. bad news? .................... van had broken down shortly before he got to car boot ................ not very far away so he'd just had to walk round the corner ........... pumping oil all over the place :mad: :mad: He did the car boot as normal and then his mate who does the car boots too, is going to tow him to his place where they can have a look at it to see what the problem is ............... may need a new engine though :eek: :eek: though the mate said he'd find one for him

Just like it, WTC gets sorted though we don't know weekly amount yet and then this happens. Amazingly, Mr 3Dogs' attitude is 'nothing we can do about it' which it certainly wouldn't have been a few years ago :eek: :eek: :eek:

If you stroke her paw's, near the end, when she start's flexing her claw's it should stop her doing it and make her fold her paws under her to keep claws safe.
Nice to hear your Mum's still eating well.

Thanks for the tip boult - I am not used to cats

Hello hope van can be sorted soon. So you have a cat that likes attention. Speak to Wordsmith. She completely understands!!!

I bought some strawberries yesterday. 2 punnets cost me £2, i tried them today and they tasted of nothing. Utterly yuk??? no flavour at all so i have binned them. The cherries which were expensive were delish though.

I was planning on organising a secret party for one of my friends who will be graduating from her degree. Today i realised i can't afford to go so i will have do do something in the summer.

Update from Mr 3Dogs just now - the engine is covered in oil and none left in the engine, so he and his mate will have to clean it all off, fill it up again having checked for leaks and fixed them, and hope for the best. The one piece of good news is that the engine still turned over when he turned the ignition, so the engine has not seized up luckily. At best, fix a leaking joint/pipe/etc and all ok after that ............................... at worst, a new engine .... well a replacement reconditioned engine - Mr 3Dogs won't be able to get over to work on the van until Tuesday afternoon, so he will know then, hopefully

Hello 3Dogs - how are things with you?

Oh - doesn't sound very good about the van, and presumably no van means no carboots and no earning money?

Are you up north or down on the fens at the moment?

savingwannabe

Hello Tixy. Hope Susan come's back soon. Hope you are well too.

Will Vix be able to travel all over too like her best friend?

Tixy

Hi Kit - how are you?
I'm okay thanks, bit busy and stressed at work but hope it might quieten down fairly soon.....
