Good morning all

Thanks for starting the thread Teabag

KJP - I'm a novice knitter myself. As La escocesa suggests, starting with chunky needles and a scarf is a good idea. Since the beginning of the year I've been knitting 7 inch squares to make a blanket for my Nan for christmas. I find knitting very relaxing and helps towards crimbo pressies too!:money:

Well....todays efforts:

* Work out slimming world meal-plan for the week
* Check on-line banking:eek:
* Charge mobile at work
* Leave purse at home on school run so not tempted by shop!!
* Do any surveys that are available

Morning everyone!

Tehbeag - thanks for starting the thread, hope your daughter feels better soon!

Today I have/will:

• [STRIKE] Check banking[/STRIKE] Anyone else with Halifax find it's taking longer to update available balance since the upgrade?
• [STRIKE] Check CC[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Check TCB[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Update spreadsheets![/STRIKE]
• Get ebay parcel ready to post & post it
• Receive test items
• Sort out envelope for tickets etc - at the moment they're all around my room, must keep them somewhere safe!
• Update work Facebook
• Do some homework
• Read revision guide from OU tutor - went to do this yesterday to find she hadn't attached it to the email - doh!
• Look into couriers
• Redo mini mani/pedi as I peeled off all the nail varnish this morning in the shower...
• [STRIKE]Breakfast/lunch from stores[/STRIKE]
• NSD - need to after spending £78.99 over the weekend, of which only £34 was essential. Won't count postage as it's paid for in Ebay.
• Pay Ebay money off CC
• Work Hard!
• 2lts water
• Sparkle!

Hope everyone has a great day!

Any knitters here? I have a feeling a few of you knit - I haven't since I was a child and want to pick it up again, what 'basic' needles would you recommend for a DFW-y beginner?

Thanks!

Thanks for all the knitting advice ladies - might have a wander up to the Range later and see what I can get - but only if I have to buy my parking permit which will ruin the NSD!

Also received my first Graze box today, and a code for free ones for my family/friends, so have sent out that email!

Hope everyone's having a good Monday!

Hi everyone

Hope you've all had great days for a Monday!

La E - sorry to hear about the house, but at least you found out!
Bagpuss - what OU course are you doing? I've nearly finished my fifth, can't believe this time next year I'll have finished my degree!
Miss Piggy - thanks for the advice - a blanket sounds nice, gets so cold in the evenings these days! Might be a target for next year...!
Ziggy - I always feel like my list is a bit repetitive (mostly because I'm rubbish at doing most of it!) but it helps!
Ixia - hope you've enjoyed your day off!
DNMS - you're doing so well with the packing! When do you move?
Hope everyone has a good evening - I'm gonna do revision, homework and I. Will. Look. At. Couriers. Three months of having car panels in my room is enough!!!!!
