    right thats looking better cuppa i think:coffee::coffee::coffee:help yourselves
  • That was fun! Master Blaster today!

    Just managed to delay myself with a cup of coffee for long enough that the rain started before I could take the washing out of the machine :)

    It's going in the tumble to get it out of the way.

    And I have escaped having to wash the windows again :J


    So I am going to [STRIKE]have a cheap laugh at the shoddy workmanship[/STRIKE] watch 60 minute makeover with my coffee and a Curly Wurly, as there is no way I'm going out to buy any extra food for tonight now. She can make do with eggs.


    [stifles snort at the the way these people are paid to smear paint all over the woodwork and cornicing]

    Big hugs, hope you feel better soon.


    Stupid me and stupid TD It has been on all day and keeps going cold. I have put the towels on the whirley now but the sky has gone very dark. :mad:

    It is now raining & sunny at the same time

    Chicken with bacon & baby bel cheese is in the oven.

    Have done very little today, throat feeling a bit strange.

    I am going to do a HHC to try and get something done.
