Making chicken feed of my mortgage

Unfortunately when I unpacked it there is a scratch on one of the doors (3 grey gloss doors but only 2 had protective film on...) now it's only a little scratch (about 2 cm long) but it is at eye level and at £550 it's already starting to annoy me that it's not perfect. I wonder if they can just send me a new door :huh:

I've contacted the furniture company...
My HM ginger beer was very gassy this morning. Fingers crossed it doesn't explode today - I've moved it to a cooler room and put it in a bin bag just in case
My little car was serviced last month and I have noticed a huge difference in performance since - an extra 8-10 mpg :T That's better fuel efficiency than when it was new 4 years ago :rotfl:
Hope everyone has a good day

Hi MWC
I've been reading your diary from the start over the last few weeks, up to page 50 I think as we speak.
You're doing really well with your Op's and savings and I love all the chicken updates and your food recipes sound fabulous
Right, off to do some tasks of my own now
Regards

No, the recipe from a link in skintspice's diary
2 tbsp grated ginger
juice of 1 lemon
1 tbsp honey
225g sugar
1/4 tsp yeast
2L tepid water
Put ginger, lemon juice, honey, sugar and yeast in a clean plastic bottle with 1.5L water. Shake until sugar has dissolved. Top up with water until approx. 4 cm from top. Leave in a warm place for a couple of days, letting out gas as required. Chill, strain (optional), drink :beer:Mortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000

Very poor customer service MWC
Re ginger beer, I had mentioned to El that yours seemed to be very fizzy, whereas she thinks that her hooch may be a bit flat....February13 - £74990 (or thereabouts)
