    Hello All, just popping by. My dog has just had her puppies. 6 of them!

    Ooh how exciting - what sort are they? Pics please!
  • Oh and just read that the Aurora Borealis (sp?) is going to be (potentially) good viewing tonight, possibly for larger parts of the UK than normal.

    Hey Greying, thanks for both bits of info. Tis very cloudy here so I doubt I will get to see the Aurora Borealis here but I can definitely schedule in that radio programme, sounds interesting.

    Unix..... awwww puppies, yes what kind. Have I ever said that one of my favourite smells in the whole wide world is puppy breath....... I know I am a sad individual but it is so cute.

    KC, hope you feel better soon. Take care of you.

    Pippi, same to you too. Slow down and take a breath X Just read your blog post about fish boxes, strangely I was talking about you last night and how you take pictures of fish boxes, it was at my class and we were discussing how different people see beauty in different things and you sprang to mind - no idea what made me fixate on the fishboxes though, so when I read your post I thought it was a bit spooky.

    Puppies! Aurora Borealis! Woo hoo! I'm not too bad, thanks - but you know what I've realised? The tax people want things in different categories from what accountants ask for. I'm rejigging before answering every question. And the bleeping online form keeps saying I've only done 1% of the form! Actually, because of my "foreign" money that may well be true. I can't sniffle, I'll short out the laptop :rotfl:

    Hi LT, I share your pain! My buyers are asking stupid questions and want their surveyor to come around again! As they're first time buyers, they're going to need to hurry up, as the stamp duty special offer for first timers is going in March and DD and I want to be in our forever home by her birthday in mid-March as she wants her and the house to have the same birthday :)

    I've now decluttered my piano (sob) but have gained a keyboard and stand (yay). The place looks odd without a piano and I don't have enough space to put things on ;) The rest of the tidying/decluttering has come to a bit of a stop as I cba until I know when the heck we're moving!
  • Goodmorning world - I'll catch up with you all in a bit - cellist information sounds great - thank you Greying. Puppies yay! How exciting!
    Surveyors and silly buyers questions get a boo. goodluck with it all Lt and KK
    Fishboxes and aurora borelais get a bit whoop whoop and Keiss how funny I found one when you were talking about it.

    I'm slowly getting on with my day, plodding along - rather than racing!
