    Excellent, engineer been, leak fixed, AGA back on!

  • Excellent, engineer been, leak fixed, AGA back on!

    Phew! That's a relief :)

    Bins went out this morning. 3rd load in WM, 2nd load in TD. The hall carpet has been scrubbed to within an inch of it's life! It already smells better, just need to see if she reoffends.

    DH has been joining lots of online job sites. 1 has even emailed him a possible job........ in California!! He is just researching the value of some of his vinyl collection. Some of them are worth something as he was a bit of a collector back in the day (worked in the right environment at the time). NND is popping over later to look at his guitars. He (NND) teaches guitar and is in a few bands, so he should have an idea of what we can get for them even if he doesn't know someone who wants one.

    Miss T was a bit happier when she went into nursery and my other little girlie is currently snoozing on the sofa :) I am going to take this opportunity to do a bit more on my accounts. I aim to get them done by the end of today.

    DD2 has the doctors tonight. She needs to be examined down there. I am going with her. They could only give her an appointment with a male doctor (because of the times we can get there - she wants me there as well).

    Ok - HHPaperwork is in order I think. Anyone care to join me?

    Glad gas leak is sorted Dusty

    good that DH is applying for jobs. Hope DD2 gets on OK at the docs - good that you can go in with her. I was with DD when she had that sort of examination too; she was only 7 bless her but coped with it all very well ..... I held her hand and kept her distracted.

    Nicki it is really cold when you're sat still isn't it.

    I've had a complete waste of a day - went to see someone at 9 and didn't leave til 11 (she doesn't half chat), back home, dog had tried to rip the post open with her teeth so paper/bits of padded envelope everywhere :eek:, did dailies, lunch and then spent around 40 mins trying to catch 3 sucking loaches to return to the aquatics centre which I shouldn't have been sold as they're not friendly with other fish when they get older. I can't believe how fast they are! Anyhow, home now with 3 bristlenose plecs which should be a lot more placid. Cup of tea and then walk the dog (in her smart new red fleece jumper) and pick the kids up from school on the way back. Ho hum .... the best made plans etc (or whatever they say .....)
