    Well, the man is here and may fit a catflap and a lock on the outside porch door if he gets time.

    My Lakeland airer has arrived and it's raining, so it is already set up and hopefully drying my washing.

    Thicker duvet now in use. Pet food not ordered yet. Reminder set! :T

    Pet food ordered and collected :j

    Need to sort tinned food for us now. So beans, tomatoes, soup etc. Anyone know of any good deals for tinned tomatoes and beans?

    Still have lots to do, but slowly getting there....bit by bit.

    Emergency cat food bought today (so that's her sorted)

    More salmon bought for freezer and emergency b.beans....freezer is fit to burst, but still need to do a proper sort out as to what's in there, may do this after i've had a bath.

    Oh and boiler/heating getting serviced tomorrow morning, so that's a biggie out of the way.

    Heating been on most of the day here due to drying washing....lovely and warm though. Next bed change will clip the summer duvet to the winter one probably.....that'll be a grand total of 20 tog of duck feathers on top of me.
    Yep...still at it, working out how to retire early.:D....... Going to have to rethink that scenario as have been screwed over by the company. A work in progress.

    I'm not sure if they are cheaper, but lots of places seem to have chopped toms in boxes now, easier to stack in cupboards using all space.

    where are you ordering pet food from? Cat is a fussy beggar and only really likes purina dry cat food, I bought it last from zooplus - in bulk, but are there any better places? - I've just looked and they don't seem any where near as good value as last time - must have been a deal on at the time.
    :AA/give up smoking (done) :)
