Eggs IN 5
Eggs OUT 13 (2 boxes sold for £3, Miss MWC's in the bin)

I've arrived up north and it appears that I packed everything I need!

Internet connection in hotel is terrible and I need to do some work

Hi mwc... Just having a catch up glad u remembered everything. The last 3 times I have traveled I have forgotten a toothbrush, next trip a jumper or a coat (I was in Scotland!) and another time underwear for the next day oooops! I need to be more organised like u and write lists!
Having to go out and buy stuff is not very mse!

I've had a lovely afternoon at RHS Harlow Carr (shhh don't tell my boss!) and I managed to walk through the plant shop without spending any money :T

After such a lovely day on Tuesday (I was taken out for dinner after my trip to Harlow Carr), yesterday turned out to be a real stinker My business meeting was pretty much a disaster and I didn't get home until 21:30

Eggs IN 18 (3 days)
Eggs OUT 2 (Miss MWC's - only 1 more week of throwing them out)

Atlantic Gas have refunded us one average monthly payment (£56.50) for being loyal customers :T but apart from that everything is quiet until pay day.

Sorry to hear you had a bad day MWC. It probably wasn't as bad as you think - these things never are. It might look better after a good night's sleep (and a small glass of something?).

Take care

Unfortunately Fortune, it was... however, looking on the brightside, in the end I'll probably come out of it looking quite good! I'm trying really hard not to say "I told you so" but my US colleagues placed some work with a Supplier (who I probably wouldn't have chosen for this particular piece of work) based purely on cost and they didn't deliver.

I'm already starting to look good at work

However I have even better work-related news... I'm at home and I don't need to go back to work until next month :rotfl:

We've received a confirmatory letter from Nationwide about our last MOP - the remaining term on our Further Advance is exactly 10 years effective from September 2013 :j

I have a huge surplus of eggs because most of my regular customers are either away or don't need any I'm considering setting a stall up outside the house with an honesty box but I have a feeling that Mr MWC will be very unhappy about this. The other option is to give them away to friends and family but that would mean £7.50 less for the pot...

See - silver linings and all that. I wish you lived near me MWC, I'd take all those eggs of your hands.

Good morning

Today I will be at home waiting for our new guest bed and a mattress for our bed to be delivered - the delivery company have given us a window of 07:00 to 19:00 :mad:

I guess I could do some housework whilst waiting :rotfl:

I've done an egg stocktake... not including any laid today... 45 :eek:

I've had a bit of a result with my recent Liz Earle order... first free P&P, then complimentary travel size cleanse & polish/muslin cloth and, best of all, a complimentary full size neck & bust serum (my favourite product - £28) :T

I've scrubbed and polished my stainless steel pots and pans - next job is cleanng the kitchen windows...
