    But you will be slim and I will be a fat blarter.

    I am a bad person. I put DD1'S grooming kit in the washing machine and it is now drying on the aga.

    DH couldnt find Woody so we settled on a Jo Nesbo effort which like his books set up a great story but the denouement was lacking. We took a while to find the remote. It was in the coal bucket??!!.

    I am still in two minds whether to list the tyre I was sent home with or keep it... right now I need to muster the strength to get it out of the car!

    The garage say keep it as an emergency spare and it would only go for max £50 as a used tyre on eb4y and would have to be collect only...

    £22 on a bit and £26 on peacock irons though DD is paying me back for the irons.
    Sold an item for twenty quid more than expected so that will pay for the bit.

    You can be quite contrary at times, Al. I could swear this is this same woman who was talking about Game of Bones a few short days ago? :rotfl:
