    Been to get lemons *cof* for DD can you hear her? *cof*

    got the local paper to find my first boss (well full time job) has died (he was 80) reading between the lines (where he died and the brief announcement) he probably either had another stroke or alzheimers. Ah well.

    have been doing a bit of research into a price for an item I intend to list tomorrow. Clearly more valuable than I thought as is similar to this item! (I wish!)

    I want a dizziee he is lovely.

    Not the best of days in the Dusty household but hey ho it's almost bedtime - I need to wait for the washing to finish to put DS2's squash top on the AGA to dry for tomorrow.

    I'll see if I can get the stars to play ball tonight - are you seeing code rather than pictures on some of them?

    Jojo - that kitten is just gorgeous, beautiful markings.

    Went to Al*i - their baileys copy is 5.99 this year. Got (hopefully) enough food for 2 weeks. Went to b*ots to collect my order *doffs cap to grabbit board for half price xmas cards*

    Friday Keep in Contact
    Phone somebody you haven’t spoken to in ages and make their day. Don’t wait until Christmas to send a card asking how they are, do it in person. For those of you who will struggle with this go and read a bit of a board on here you have never visited. You don’t have to post. - did this wednesday

    Friday Festive Drinks
    Have a think about drinks over the festive period. Mulled wine, Bucks Fizz, fruit cocktails, fizzy water and red cordial, prosecco? Try something new. Check any glasses you will need over the festive period are clean and sparkling - was given a bottle of mulled wine on weds, got sloe gin fermenting in cupboard and brought al*i bail*ys today. Will get more on my next shop.

    Love and light to all xx

    :eek::eek: Some people clearly have more money than sense! Still, at least you get a 'free' key ring :rotfl:

    JoJo - the kitten is gorgeous! We keep getting a mangey old ginger tom sitting on our doorstep, and the kids want to keep him!! He is infested & looks like he would cost a fortune in vets fees. I think I may have to phone Cats Protection or someone, but he is not around all the time :(

    I have done NO studying tonight :o But I did get a couple more bargains :j Now 80 for £5, and CoD MW3 (the new one) for £18!! We were going to order it at the weekend anyway for nearly £40, so result! :D

    Tomorrows list:
    get up (easier said than done!)
    bath & hair wash
    study
    study
    study... you get the picture :p

    Hugs, sticks & spoons to those that need them, especially wendywitch
    Night night all xx

    Oh poor little Dizziee, he looks so stressed............;) He's gorgeous.

    Quite a busy day, I did get the vacuum put round. I had enough time, I was up at 5.30 am coughing.

    We tried to go to Bath but the park and ride car park was full, so we went and did a little bit of shopping then back home to pick up cameras and off to Slimbridge. Lovely there but the wind was really cold. Then back home to get the washing in, about half an hour after it started raining......

    Tried a new recipe tonight and it was nice so I think we'll have that again. We'll have to - I've still got enough ingredients to make it again! And I've just ordered an advent calendar from Amazon. Doesn't matter if it turns up a few days late, I'll just have more doors to open;) See Dusty, I might not do your challenges when you make them but I get round to some of them in the end :)

    Hi guys

    Jojo He's gooooooorgeous :D

    Plenty rest Greenbee x

    Here I am again at silly o'clock, teenie knocked me out of bed at 1.35am to be precise and I couldn't get back off *rolls eyes*

    Trying to order OH's new bike for Christmas at Argos but the payment page keeps timing out :mad: getting stressed as there's £50 off it at the moment and don't want to miss out, glad I checked it was still in stock mind (silver lining and all that) :j

    House has been midden-like all week but I summoned up some energy last evening and got it all tidied, feel better now. Work later on today and need to clean the bathroom as littley informed me that she scrubbed the bottom of the bath with the body scrubber :eek: before she was prepared to get in it, must have been bad :o

    Think I'll have a Coffee this time round as I'm not in the least bit tired :(

    Oh housing benfit came through, it's a fantastic amount, so, all is well again that way on at least :T
