    Hello lovely people :wave:

    Well, no sooner do I rejoin the challenge than I disappear again. Enforced absence this time due to a nasty little virus on my PC:mad:. All sorted now and I’m back again :D

    I’ve just been catching up on all the gossip, and there’s a lot of it this month:D

    Frodo - pleased you enjoyed your hols and spent lots of time with your Dad x:)

    rising - hope your foot is OK and that your week off is going well and not too spendy. :)

    JCG - more studying!!!!!:eek:

    ModestyB - good news that the doglets are behaving better and not eating everything in sight.:rotfl: Pleased that Lucy is recovering well from her ops, hopefully she’ll be back to her normal mischievous self before too much longer

    beanie - I’ve just seen your updated weight loss total, well done you!!!:T:T:T:T

    Hiddenidentity - kerri’s right, I’ll sell you a timeshare in the Tardis, it’ll be much cheaper than a caravan!! :rotfl:

    Kerri - :eek:to your ankle, hope it heals quickly, I can’t imagine you being happy sitting down for too long!:rotfl:

    freeby - hope the cleaning marathon wasn’t too painful. I’m just the same, I have to clean the house before I go away, I hate leaving a mess behind...:huh::huh:

    marmite - woohoooooo to no new lesions, that’s fab!!:j:j:j:j

    Red - if we had any sun here I would gladly send some your way. Well done you for giving the pizza to the complaining woman:T:T, people like that make me so cross:mad:

    LMH - pleased you had a lovely holiday, the whole thing looks fabulous:j:j:j:j

    reporting NSD 4

    unfortunatly my sewing machine blew up last night and theres lots of other issues with it, the motor going was the last straw,:( so my freecycling it for spare/repair and today i won a beautiful 1930s enamlled manuel singer machine for £29 with delivery..i can not live without a sewing machine, at least i cant blow up the motor! ive sold some things on ebay to cover the cost but its annoying because i could have used that money towards my debt but hey ho.

    Anyway have a lovely day all x
