  • I've been told that the taps aren't going to clean up as they coating has gone on them, but I did find someone selling a set of sink taps and a shower mixer tap almost identical to the ones we have now for £42 but not sure if it's the right size.

    Evening all just got back from ladies indulgence feeling all happy and relaxed. Was going to watch 'the apprentice't by OH forgot to turn the video over unil 20 minutes after it started. As you can imagine I feel stressed again now.

    Aimeelister - did anybody else burn from that suncream - you should complain sunburn is so painful i hope it does not stop you from sleeping.

    Not doing much flying for the next couple of days as need to get ready for holiday etc. I will be popping in to catch up though.
