Me too!
Very thankful that the drivers behind me had their wits about them when I realised that slamming on my brakes wasn't going to avoid a collision, with the numpty who had pulled out in front of me from a side road, and I instinctively swerved into the other lane :eek:

That sounds awful, glad you're ok and well done Miss Hattie :T.
Here's to sunny times ahead :beer:.A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

:hello:
Must. Stop. Looking. At. Pinterest.
We have another meeting with the second kitchen designer on Friday. I didn't like his design so I sent him my ideas and asked him to try again! I've already chosen new crockery, saucepans, table and chairs, tea towels, artwork and a bright orange vertical radiator :rotfl: Desperately trying not to buy anything until we at least finalise the kitchen layout though... it's very hard...
I've now moved on to living room ideas :rotfl:
No real :money: news - the kitchen fund is at target but I haven't made any OPs to the mortgage and I'm still waiting for a £450 refund to my CC following a fraudulent transaction just before Christmas :mad:Mortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000
