    Viv welcome - look forward to seeing you posting your progress next week.;)

    Optimistic_mummy BD is the Black Dog of depression. Sadly, too many of us have it snapping at our heels.

    Ionafan as I have some genuine time while dins finishes cooking, I had a look at your new link - good one!:D I've forwarded it to Mr LW's in-box; he's generally pretty good, but on the occasions he does procrastinate, he can invariably be found looking at G@mespy or something similar.:cool: Oh well, better that than p0rn.:o
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    Hi there. Posting just as the engineer is back - again! The washing machine still didn't work properly last night, but it looks like he's just got it going. The tumble drier did work, but sounds 'funny' so it looks like these repairs will be the last, and we will have to buy new appliances. The dishwasher is ok, OH found that a plastic ladle had melted in there and has cleaned it all out, and fingers crossed!!

    I've been de-fleaing the cat and got his covers washed and on the line, good job it's a good drying day today. Cleaned and sprayed the cushions etc where he currently sleeps, cleaned bathroom and conservatory again! Hope this guy is finished soon as I need a quick bite and off to work.

    Good vibes and support wishes to all those that need them, especially those whose OH is ill or being awkward. Kazmeister, I hope your throat is better soon. I suffer a lot with my throat and sympathise. Pigpen, your ex is still trying to control you; good for you that you're strong enough not to let him do it. Hiss and boo to him (that's me using silent swear words!). And Bossy! Bless your little one's heart!! What a lovely time that is when the LOs are learning how to grow up!!!

    Well, off I go, and hope the engineer goes soon! I like time to get ready. Just waiting to see the last spin and see if he wants any more money after not fixing it yesterday!!
