    Brilliant weight loss 3Dogs. I'm due to be weighed tomorrow morning but now they have changed my hours I have problems getting there some weeks and this one is one I will miss which is a shame. I may have to move to another class, my leader has another one on a Monday night so may go there.

    Hope you get a decent nights sleep tonight, the weather has certainly been keeping me awake lately.

    We've booked out hotel for our trip (went with croydon hilton after all) and now need to work out what we will have room to take down to DD. We were thinking of hiring a van and taking a bed setee down with us but I think it would be cheaper to buy her a new one down there :rotfl:

    Morning guys - I got up at 8.30 this morning and the guy came to start the garden at 8.45, so just in time ;)

    I was going to take pics of the [STRIKE]jungle[/STRIKE] garden so I could do before and after sshots, but I forgot :o so have taken pics after he cleared all the slabs, etc from small side and had strimmed the shoulder height nettles and mallow plants down to the ground

    I will post pics when he has finished ;)

    He is currently digging out roots of hawthorn and other small bushes on that small side and will then clear the black poly sheeting from the other side. He is bringing a digger tomorrow to dig it all out

    Doggies are not impressed at him being there bark bark bark they think he is stealing our weeds :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Oh, DWP put the Bereavement Allowance of £2000 into my bank account today, so I can go ahead and get the new furniture I want for the front room. I currently have a mis-match of cabinets, drawer units and tables bought cheap at the auction over the years and Alan and I discussed getting some proper matching units. I have seen some light oak self-assembly furniture locally at a good price, not top notch solid oak :eek: but nice oak finish. I had seen the exact same furniture on the t'internet, but this i cheaper :j

    If they have time at the weekend ;) Steve and Andy, under Kit's supervision :p have said they will assemble the sideboard-!!!-tv unit so I have decided to empty out the sitting room furniture I have :eek: and put those units in at the auction this Thursday for Saturday's sale. This will make more space for the decorating to be done. When I empty the exiting cabinets, I will sort it out and get rid of some, but will have to find somewhere to store what I am keeping while the decorating is being done :eek: :eek: Steve suggested the van, it does come in handy like that but I will have to keep it clear to move stuff to auction first ;)

    So it is all go at the 3Dogs' house this week, I just wish Mr 3Dogs was here to enjoy it :( Still, I am doing what he wanted, clearing out the house and garden, getting rid of clutter, and getting everything tidy so it is easier for me to maintain

    I did Beanie, had a good sleep last night :j

    :mad: :mad: to your new phone. Do you mean mobile phone or landline? Can't DS help you set it up hun?


    As I say, I had a good sleep and have been up since 9am. Guy has digger here, skimming off the soil in front garden and taking it away, so it's all coming along nicely :D

    It's a nice sunny day again but quite breezy, so got washer going with towels, with some clothes already dry on line
