    Since I could not do my foundations, I chopped down 5 trees from my neighbors garden tonight (only smallish ones)

    Sweet of them.

    I had a nightmare string of messages on ebay last week. I was selling off my ex work wardrobe. I put an expensive suit on. The messages went like this

    buyer: is this washable
    me: the label says dry clean only, as per the listing
    buyer: but in theory do you think it's washable?
    me: I don't know, I have never washed it, only had it dry cleaned
    buyer: will you accept a buy it now price of £50, as it seems this will cost me alot in dry cleaning bills :huh:
    me: well Dont buy it then :)

    Hmmm, just having a piece of Lindt Dark Excellence with Wasabi. I love Wasabi, I like really dark choc, but this, Im undecided on. Hmmmmm, not sure. Suppose it is nice in a sort of wrong way, but like Artha in a dress I guess. :D
