Well done LRH on the mini egg laying....B and G no pressure ladies, but you're beginning to show momma up:p
MWC you are far more classy than those clowns who are 'managers' at your organisation. A few years ago I read a book - the rules of work - when I was being 'managed' by a complete twonk. I think you might like it (possibly borrow from the library?)February13 - £74990 (or thereabouts)

The eglu cube is spotless, the run roof is no longer green and the woodchip has been dug over The only thing I forgot to do was sprinkle some disinfectant powder in the run - must remember to do that tomorrow. I was drenched by the time I had finished with the pressure washer!
Only 3 eggs today - Miss B, Miss H & Miss M - I'm starting to think that Miss LRH's first egg wasn't hers...

Morning MWC
Glad to hear you had a lie in. I will be joining you on the lazy part of the day later this afternoon. I have a few chores to do first and then it will be chill time!
Have a lovely day0 -
Thanks BW
BIG mistake - I went shopping with Mr MWC and we were both hungry... spent £35 (although that includes chicken stuff and a new doormat for the conservatory)
Rather than gardening this afternoon I have decided to clean the conservatory. It was lovely in there this morning when the sun was shining and we really should use it for something other than a greenhouse-!!!-shed!Mortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000

Just having a cup of tea before tackling the conservatory!
At the end of February, our combined mortgage debt was £162,402.14, the daily interest was £11.11 and our savings total approx. £110,000. We now own 35% of our home
Mr MWC and I were having a cheery chat whilst walking into town this morning. If I die, my death in servce will pay off the mortgage and buy Mr MWC a porsche - if he dies, the mortgage will be paid off but there will be no money left over. If we both die, my brother and his sister will get quite a windfall!Mortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000

Hi MWC, what if you lose a finger at work, or something slightly less permanent than death in service?
:rotfl::rotfl:
I must admit Mr T and I have had the same type of conversation and whilst it's sad to think of the future this way, it's a blessing to know we'd be OK financially.
