    Cheese toastie for tea for me today as I've been clearing out my middle bedroom. Anyone got one of those dumping ground rooms that's just got a narrow path to the window?

    Not any longer! Got rid of 9 bin liners of stuff! Only cleared half out and hadn't seen some of it for years. Feel much happier.

    Sounds like all have had a good day.

    I love hamsters I've had quite a few over the years.

    Love the corners Sheils (fruit + crumble / nobbles etc.)

    Been having a wee practice on the new lappy I won in March-which hasn't been touched as took old one away to Greece.

    Struggling with IE10 :mad:

    Fire**fly, have a vague memory when you got your new lappy, someone gave you techie help with it??? Was it in CC, have had a search but can't find it. I know you are a whiz with the searching ;) and probably your memory is better than mine :rotfl:

    Good Luck with laptop elle. I bought a new one the other week and still getting used to it. Worst of it is DD can't help me if I get stuck now as she doesn't have Windows 8.

    Just saw a FB pic of DS2 on the beach near Sydney and one of his friends had commented "Ghost spotted walking along Sydney beach!"
    Thought it was quite amusing.

    XFactor slightly annoying watching the same artists Sat + Sun.

    Abi is a star in her own way. Still like Luke but most of the others and returners not for me.


    Sheils you are lucky to have technology to keep up with your clan. Amazing how fast things have moved. We had manual type-writing classes and exams at school!


    My sister is in Russia. Sometimes get emails with pics from her travels and day-day.

    Hope you soon get to grips with your lap top Ellem, you will get to grips with it in time I am sure.

    Hope you have a lovely time away Sheils, glad you have seen a pic of your DS enjoying himself it must make you feel a bit better about it. Hope you will be able to go and see them at some point for a holiday that would be nice for you.

    iluvcats modern technology is moving so fast these days I too learnt on a manual typewriter and did Pitmans shorthand which doesn't seem to be taught in schools either these days.
    BIG THANKS TO ALL WHO POST THE COMPETITIONS

    hi elle, not sure what help you need with IE10 :o
    if you could say what probs you're having I might be able to find the post or help,
    search only works for me when using key words & sometimes still have to use random words to find x

    I have a Pitmans Typing qualification - can't remember my WPM score.

    Don't like I.E. as too many cookies. Had to roll-back to I.E. 9 as incompatible with Kaspersky.

    Firefox is generally good but have had some FB page issues this week. (blank pages or dead clickies)

    Well that's the kids, the dog and the hamster fast asleep! :p Had a great day out at Preston Park/Museum. It's not far from a Premier Inn Sheils if you're up this way again, it's in Eaglescliffe. We didn't go in Museum or Butterfly World though as we spent too long in park! KFC and cake for afterwards :)

    We got DD a female Syrian hamster Sylvia. DD chose her and called her Roxy. She is quite cute, light brown and white. I will take a pic of her when I can but it's in girls room at the minute! Jasper had a sniff but didn't bark at it...(yet!) :o

    ILC, great ecards! I can relate to the carrier bag full of carrier bags one but I deleted candy crush as it was too time consuming! I kept burning the food! :o

    Good luck getting your laptop sorted out ellemm. :)

    Alfie, I wish my DH was as determined as you are getting kitchen done! Even the spiders have got their feet under the table and made themselves at home! It's a non moving project! :o Well done for getting things sorted :T

    Enjoy your break tomorrow Sheils :) That made me chuckle about your 'ghost' son seen on beach! Next time you see him he will have a lovely tan :)

    Your tea sounded yummy fire**fly! It's making me feel hungry now!
    Its turned chilly here tonight too so I've put heating on for a bit to warm house up. :)

    I wish there was another day to this weekend, I could do with a day for clearing out, tidy up every room!
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!
