    Thanks everyone..sorry not been about for a couple of days but needed to curtail internet time as so much to do around here with one thing and another.

    Have kept up to date with house work and washing etc
    sorted all the papers out in to monthly piles for accounts...that took a fair few hours
    Got quotes and renewed car insurance...this was hard work as needed to go to old insurers today to get a copy of no claims and then needed to scan that along with driving licence and the statement of fact I had to print sign and scan and then send them back to insurer...this was hard as have never scanned a document in my life nor made a pdf or e mailed such stuff...but think I managed it as got an automatic response saying thanks for documents and that someone will look at file and let me know if they need anything else...never had to do that for insurance before..

    After sorting paperwork in to piles yesterday I needed to escape so went to get JJs birthday presents...got him a Nerf vortex gun that he's been going mad over and a mission set to go with it,a robot money box that talks and a UFO....cue one very happy boy.
    Also managed to pick up 2 sets of cars...one was construction vehicles and the other emergency vehicles..chunky push and go and suitable for junior next year and a bargainous £4.99 per set so have been put away for next christmas...then bought myself a set of headphones for PC.
    Came back and had a brew then off in to town to try and get a toy that was in sale at Debenhams but it had sold out unfortunately.So just ended up getting just dance 3 for the wii and razor blades for DH.

    Today has been spent going to bank,picking up papers from insurance and getting some info regarding adding another driver to cab policy,going to electrical suppliers for light bulbs and putting those in when got home,then scanning all documents etc to insurance..took ages as I'm clueless..lol...wahing,hoovering etc etc...am too tired to do the accounts so that is tomorrows job..
    I need to get the accounts out of the way so that I can get some more of my course done before my appointment next week
  • Hi Taxi...just want to wish you lots of love for 2012 and that it's the happiest one ever :A
    Take care lovely
