    Hello Tricia. Nice to see you back again :)

    I popped into SD yesterday to look for the imperial lather (none there)
    I found some deodorant (sorry can't remember the make and it's packed away...could be sure?) it was a hair minimising one in an aerosol 49p and SD's own heat protection spray for straight hair in a red bottle 49p

    thanks :)

    oh i forgot to look at deodorants when i was in there damn it!!

    they had source handwash in there too 49p
    only the raspberry and cream or w/e flavour it is
    smells soo good!!
    You can't make someone love you. All you can do is
    stalk them & hope they panic & give in

    God created men first, cause you always makes a rough draft before a masterpiece!

    Also got some easter craft sets - they're down to 79p but come in a really good size tuppaware sort of box, quite a strong clear box with snappy fasteners, and they're stack-able too.

    Got a few for DH screws and nails and bits and a few for kids crayons, lego etc

    Evening guys - hope you're all well :D I have only caught up to post 4001 but am getting tired so thought I'd better post an update for my loyal following :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Our day started with being woken up by heating oil delivery at 6.51am :eek: :eek: I went back to bed after he'd delivered the oil, and then woke up at 9am by loud banging on the door again - this time delivery of lovely 4-wheel walker with basket and seat for Alan which he says will be great for him :j :j When Occupational Therapist came last week and sorted the crutches out for him, he'd mentioned that he was looking out for a seated walker at the auction and she said to hold off from buying one as she might be able to get him one. I knew a delivery was coming today, but throught it was a trolley for him to use indoors, so was pleasantly surprised that it was the walker. Very pleased :j :j

    We got up then and had our breakfast and I made a few phone calls from my list. One of these was to ring our Housing Association. With everything going on, I hadn't been keeping an eye on how much heating oil we had left. We have a meter/monitor which plugs in indoors and it tells you how much oil is left in the tank, but, not having enough sockets, I tend to not keep it plugged in. I had checked it the other week and the display was just not settling down and then went off :eek: Heating was still working so forgot about it, till the heating went off on Good Friday, as we had run out of oil :o:o when this happens, you need an engineer to reset the system as it gets air in the pipe

    I ordered oil on Saturday morning and they said they could deliver on Wednesday or Friday. So, once it was delivered I then needed the system reset, so rang them this morning and explained what had happened and about Alan's condition, so they said they would try to get someone out to reset it as soon as possible. The guy came at 1pm and reset the system very easily but the smell was awful from the boiler, which is in a brick built shed/outhouse. He said it was leaking fumes and I could clearly see it coming out. He said we were lucky that it was outside or we would have been gonners :eek: :eek: Luckily, after 2 hours work, he managed to fix it, saying that, if he'd not had the parts with him and been able to weld one section, he would have had to close the system off as dangerous :eek: It was actually leaking in two quite separate parts of the boiler and he was astonished when I told him the system was only fitted 3 years ago and had been last serviced in December 2011

    Anyway, a week of just using a small fan heater, we are loving having heating on again, especially as Alan feels the cold much more now. The guy also fitted a new Watchman device so I must try to keep that plugged in somewhere and keep an eye on it, though he has set it to sound an alarm if the tank is getting low so that's good :D

    By the time he left, it was too late for us to go down to the car boot cafe as we'd planned so we just nipped to the docs to pick up a prescription for Linda, then Aldi for a good look round and some normal shopping, and also popped into Asda to return a throw I bought last week and get some shopping for Linda. We did manage to get some whoopsied cakes from Asda so Alan was happy with that ;)

    Alan went to bed early, as he was very tired, even though he'd been in bed all the time the workman was here. He is however looking forward to trying out his walker tomorrow at the car boot :D

    We've had sunny intervals today, lots of cloud about but no rain which was good as I managed to get a big bedspread washed and then dried outside so it just needs aired off. Really pleased with that as I was thinking that I might have to take it to the laundrette :(

    Off to bed now so will wish you all a good night :beer:

    I'm awake. Trying to decide wether to put in an rtd I know will give something back or to wait till they clear the backlog. I guess they weren't working over the bank holiday and have too many to do so are taking the lazy option and saying not found or nothing on them.
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)

    I tried to quote your earlier post, but somehow lost it! I'm intrigued, how was the last chapter of Allen Carr?! Also, have you cut down/quit whilst reading the rest of it?

    I bought the book but I'm too scared to start reading!!Sounds stupid probably, but the idea of never having another ciggie really terrifies me! :o I don't even know why really, can't put my finger on it.
    Gwrys yn Kernow! :j
