  • Morning Robin :)

    I had a little giggle at the wandering outside in underwear thing, I am always doing things like this :o I think the postman and bin men are used to this now as it's always them that catch me doing it as i've usually forgotten to put the bags out so rush out half clothed :p or the post man knocks just as i've got out of the shower!

    Well done for fixing the shredder! I'm very impressed, i'm so un-technically minded I wouldn't have even known where to start :eek: !

    Hi Robin *Waves* its taken me a while but after seeing your lovely comments on Luckys diary I had to take a look at yours.

    I was moved to tears, and completely motivated with my MSE - I look forward to the next update from CD.

    Hi Robin.

    Hope you, CD and the Divos are all well.

    I'm so impressed with the shredder. At first I thought you meant a paper munching machine not the heavy duty garden type....what an absolutely talented star you are.

    waves madly at KJ.

    Why were you going to pay for DS3's test? Surely as he is working, HE can pay for himself? And if HE missed it and there is a charge THEN IT ISNT YOUR PROBLEM, he should deal with it like the grown up he is.....
    I want a job that is less than an hour driving away from my house! Are you listening universe?
