    I want to do the real mosquito one now, will do when dh is home on his lap top.


    Today I think the external doors go in here :):)

    The hot water cylinder gets put in place.

    The digger comes to address external levels and remove the ratty front hedge infront of house.

    I wonder if you could hear a Mosquito device?

    What can you hear on this link...

    http://movingsoundtech.com/

    The sounds are on the right of the page.

    I cant hear the one for 49 year age and I'm way younger than that.

    I can hear the any age and the under 60.

    I can hear the one for under 49 years and I'm nearly there!

    Didn't do so well on the frequency one, can only hear the first three.

    OH admitted that he wanted to take a year off and go travelling after uni (we had been together about 1.5 years by then), but he was too worried that I wouldn't wait for him if he went. I wasn't interested in travelling and had a good job offer that wouldn't have waited. He was possibly right, I would have been peeved that he had gone and a year is a long time when you are only 21. On the other hand I may have decided that no-one measures up to him. We'll never know. That is his excuse for doing as much travelling as possible in his work.

    Can you plan a grand tour for when you retire silver? DH and I are similar ages and we spend a not inconsiderable amount of time deciding where we are going to go when we have more freedom to travel. It's pretty interesting as there are places that I want to go that he wouldn't touch with a bargepole and suggestions he makes that I just think "why?" There's a lot we agree on though.

    We'll almost certainly go straight back to Australia. When you can only take a couple of weeks holiday at a time, that only gives long enough to visit family and very little to explore, whereas we'd be doing a proper walkabout while we can still walk.

    Just watching HUTH. Following Doozer's comment yesterday, thank goodness he's got his coat on today! I really liked that first house and what he did with it. Some very nice ideas.

    Oh poor thing:(. How did she do that? Is it as fixable?

    I heard 1-4. 5-7 I could hear when they started/stopped, but I think that's me hearing the switching on/off (if you see what I mean) .... and if there's an 8 I could hear that being turned on too .... it all happened a bit fast at the end ..... and I was trying to listen, not read the screen :)

    i could hear 1-6 clearly (not just the on/off noise), although 6 was very feint. could not hear 7.

    2 was effing painful.

    Hope so, no x ray yet.

    Almost identical to last time...we were walking, she was playing with another dog. But they has stopped hooning around (it happened mid flight last time). They were sniffing in a congregation, all the social dogs.i think I saw her jump to the side in surpise just before she yelped.

    Then she stood waiting for me, leg in the air. Other people with dogs were telling their dogs off but I assured them it was not their dogs' fault and pisked her up and popped her in the car, came home, told vet we were coming and took her in.

    She is very brave and doesn't wimper at all, not once, but there is crepitus and movement, so there is a break, and a lot of swelling. She is also limited by the epweakness in the other back leg now, and is finding it hard to three legged walk the 'wrong way round' for her.


    She was pleased to see the vet though, her favourite vet saw her, and the vet nurse, who she adores.
