    It's a dog. That's a big change for me, I always choose girls. I prefer b1tchs, but the dynamics are what they are, and a dOg is a better bet for our older girls.

    I have pics but am having huge difficulty with them. It is a big fail here. I have also been having email issues all week with otmail, so have only managed to forward one pic o one friend. :(

    I've deleted my post. I'm not buying/selling or potentially working for said company, so none of my concern. I was just being a right nosey biatch.

    As was pointed out, the debts could be against the owner, who might have re-mortgaged their house to buy in stocks/similar....

    London Gazette calls it "to be wound up voluntarily" after a special GM. It also states "Sections 84(1)(b) and 100 of the Insolvency Act 1986"

    Don't quote, might delete.

    As I said, I'm just a super-nosey person sometimes..... under the heading of Karma Hunting.

    Brrrr. I think I might light the woodburner. It's bitterly cold here.

    I think that you should set the woodburner going, too. :)


    In our house, I have to get permission to set the dishwasher running. There has to be an inspection to see whether any more can be squeezed in. Sometimes, I offer to get something clean out of the cupboard to put in the dishwasher, so it can be run.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    POSH ALERT (but will be deleted): We had 2 on our drive last weekend (not at the same time) :D

    Too posh not to be saved for posterity. :)

    It will be warmer here in an hour or so, I lit the thing. :)

    Dh and I have the house to ourselves. We were going to see curly dog, taking big dog and dog dog in the car too, but as the weather seems pants and I don't trust the car to go on a long trip with the four of us in it, we are visiting curly dog next week instead.

    So tomorrow we will get a coat of emulsion on the dry walls. :). I don't think the paint I chose for the down stairs loo is right, so I am trying to convince myself it's right for the little hallway/internal utility area and wondering what to try in the loo instead.

    Umm, (whistles innocently) how many halls do you have LIR?

    Halls? What counts as a hall, I need to know to answer the question.

    Anything that could be described as a hall is pokey here anyway. Landings on the other hand......

    Were they yours? I've often had a blue Ferrari and a black Bentley on my drive, neither of which belong to me.

    I have learnt that a used Rolls Royce is not a sign of posh, but of someone who puts love of the brand before sense :D

    I'm amazed I even got to ride in bil's roller. Every time I would speak to him the car would be "in the shop". Bills were never in the range I would countenance. "A few thousand bucks and she'll be sorted" - my sister heard this a lot ! :)

    Today we learnt that it took 17 cow hides to make the leather interior. I suspect travelling on 17 cows might be a bit more reliable :rotfl:
