    I am indeed on some wind power websites, which is where my user name is from. [STRIKE]Can't insert a picture, though[/STRIKE].Picture193.jpg

    Oh, I can!

    Sorry, Pink, I see what you meant now!

    Shez, a snowy CF will be lovely. DD did mine, and my request for animated snow appears to have been overlooked. Never mind - I love it as it is!

    Who sells rubber gloves that aren't yellow? NOTHING in my flat is yellow and I am certain you can get pink ones...

    I'm sure that we got our pink ones (or should I say DH did :D) from Wilkos.

    Hello

    Popped back as I'm so bored at work today. The weather is horrible. The rain is coming down in buckets, the car parks flooding, the wind's howling, hail stones. And the office windows leak - right by the electrics!!!!:rotfl:

    This place is so funny the way nothing works properly

    still lacking in motivation to do any work

    hope everyone else is ok

    Afternoon,

    There must be something in the air today, as I too just can't get motivated. Stayed up til 4am watching my new addiction, Firefly, then woke up at 11.30 today. So far, all I've managed to do is go to the PO, make the bed, and apply for 3 jobs. OH will be back any minute and he'll probably be annoyed that I haven't done anything. Our sofa cover is dry now, so I think OH and I will wrestle to put that back on later. Did another load of washing last night, but its been too windy to put it out today.

    So, the plan: stick on some music, get a nice hot tea and start dusting our booksheves.

    breakfast: Toast
    Lunch; Chicken Salad Sandwich
    Tea: Spicy Bean and Sausage Stew with Cheesy Mash
    We must all suffer one of two things: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret and disappointment
