    :j I can now work the scanner part of my 3-in-1 printer-scanner-copier. Sheesh, only took me nearly 2 years to use that function.:rotfl:

    I've now started scanning and printing off the receipts, each in front of the cover of the relevent instruction booklet. Feeling good about that.

    :o Although I did try to open up the scanned files (.pdf) in Word and had heart failure for a moment when they weren't there. Oh, that'd be that thing called Adobe Reader, wouldn't it?! Doh. Some days I check the PC for stabilisers, I feel sooo dense.

    Will continue to plug thru the appliances and furnishings receipts which isn't hard as they're all sitting in a folder sorted by type. Next time I go to visit the folks, or they come here, both hardcopy and CD copies will go off-site. That'll fox those zombie-firestarter meteor-throwing barstewards.

    Now I know how that scanner works, there'll be no stopping me.

    Mar, how did your kitchen tidying go? I found some giant choc chip muffins in my cupboard, hidden by me from me 2 days ago. I'm simply thrilled at still having them unmolested on the premises. They're whoopsied, too, which makes them extra tasty, don'tcha know.

    It has been raining steadily all blinking day so absolutely no gardening got done but I have made bread rolls and am going to make my first venture into banana bread this evening.

    got some fleece hat gloves and scarf sets in p0und!and yesterday - I think they might be kids ones as the gloves are quite small (but I have chunky hands) however the hat and scarf are perfect for the car kits and fit my big head perfectly :)

    :) Sounds like a plan. Didn't MSE used to have a drooling icon? Just tried to find it and it's gone.

    Never mind, I shall have some custard with my choc chip muffin after tea. Thanks for the reminder.

    I did a massive clearout/check/move/tidy. I found far more pasta than anybody could ever need apart from the Italian army. I found 10 pkts of instant mash with a bb date of May last year... I found semolina bb Aug 2010. And I found I'm short on teabags..only 39 boxes :D
    AND I cleared a whole new cupboard so I can start all over again filling it ;) - but I might use it for xmas stuff.
