    Yes I agree :) I ve got an Epson sx425W. I bought mine from Tesco s. Not sure if they are cheaper anywhere else. I do buy compatable inks for them off eBay and are fine. touch wood lol.

    I had one of those, the paper feed mechanism went kaput just after it went out of warranty. Had a webchat with Epson, ascertained that it would be cheaper to replace than fix, then he tried to sell me ink for it :rotfl:

    Replaced it with a HP1050, great little printer

    If I had to choose a month to be born in, I think it would be May.

    We are the lucky ones, the best ones.

    Just like Botticelli's Primavera, we are the May Elite! :D

    Oh yes I agree there :D. I like my birthday being in May too and usually nice sunny weather but not so nowadays unfortunately.

    My original HP 3 in 1 has been going strong for 5 years! never caused me any problems. DS1 fiddled with the software and disabled whatever's in there that makes it difficult to use compatible cartridges. I know there are cheaper printers and ink out there but in the long run, I'd rather have a good reliable printer with reasonable running costs and no hassles. And that poor printer gets hammered:eek: there's me with my coupons and 3 other devices hooked up to it churning untold amounts of homework out :p

    Overnight catchup done ;) always like to do this in case I miss something.

    Have to pop to Doctors today as going into hospital next Wednesday for a small operation nothing serious I hasten to add:Tso looks like the Hunters and a brollie are the dress code today as I like to take a short cut across the park to the doctors .Bubbs hope you took your wet weather attire with you when you went away.

    Am sending out lots of Hugs today as seems many Elite could do with a little comforting at the moment x

    My son was born May 13th. Was a cold windy day like today and nearly every year round about his birthday it is autumn/winter like weather. Cant remember him ever having a sunny birthday :eek:
    My daughters is end of September and she nearly always has nice warm weather for hers . :)

    Mind you, May is the best time to have a baby. Helps through those first few months of sleepless nights with the extra daylight and possibly warmer temps :rotfl:

    Yes it is a nice time to have a baby :) my eldest Lee was born on the 27 th the others March and January. I remember my 50th birthday. Not so much the being 50 :eek: but it was a good day for me for one reason or another ;) and it was an absolute glorious day . Lovely sunbathing weather.:D

    Morning all.
    Logie, wishing you the best of news today.xx

    I had a lovely day on Monday, my DS took me out for breakfast, my 2 DDs organised a birthday tea with family and friends, and my DH took me out for a meal in the evening, with some special friends.
    Here is the tea and hopefully, my cake,which my 14 year old made.

    Been thinking and I wish THE stash box was just the one under the bed. :o There are at least 4 boxes and 2 crates under there, one box on top the wardrobe, 2 crammed drawers and 2 very big boxes in the upstairs cupboard.

    I actually thought I was running out of shower gel because I had forgotten about the box on top the wardrobe. :eek:

    I can not be tempted anymore as I think it was the last day they were giving out the No7 vouchers today.

    I think I've got more than you tiny Hangs head in shame. I also realise nowadays and try not to buy as much. However I still can t resist if things are free or really cheap :D. You don't realise just how long a bottle or tub of something lasts do you. I really do believe I had a problem with hoarding over the years. Nowhere near as bad as those folks on the tv but never the less more than I need. Storing Susie.
