Evening all.
The mattresses arrived on time, and installed. They wanted £60 to take the old ones away:eek::eek:, so we told them no, we would dispose of them. DH and DS2 were outside cutting up old ones as they were too big to go in/on any of the cars to take to the dump. Ours was so well made that DS2 had to use an angle grinder to cut through the springs.
Beds are now made up with the posh new linen I picked up cheap from Just Linen.:D Can't wait to go to bed tonight.

I blitzed the bedroom before I did the bed, and found some very old books that I inherited, but had completely forgotten about, tucked in an under bed drawer.
Any ideas where I can find out if they're worth anything? There are several volumes of Lord Byron's works, dated from 1804 to about 1827, nicely bound, some a bit worn, and some fairly tatty.They include Don Juan, The Doge of Venice, A Tragedy, The Siege of Corinth, and books of poems. I've had a search, but not any luck. It occurred to me that as there is such a diversity of knowledge on this thread, besides glitching, one of you clever people may be able to help me.
I found this, which details Byron's life and works. Makes quite interesting reading, and I have some of the titles mentioned.

Happy birthday lilac lillie, hope you've had a lovely day.
Snap, glad Bindi/Spot (prefer Bindi:D)has settled in, lovely pic by the way.
Purpledonkey, lovely buns
Bubbs, I take back my erroneous birthday wishes, and replace them with a 'happy you're home, and hope the river behaves itself' wishes instead.
Savvy, your lists are amazing.
Thanks to whoever posted the Chiquita voucher link. May talk DH into a brekkie date and a 1p hunt afterwards.
Logie, they will manage without you hun. You need to get properly well before you go back.
Probably missed some people out, so thanks to all who post, and hope the poorlies feel better soon.
Hugs,
N x

Shame you didnt get anything but like you say when you meet with tiger you can splurge:D

Yeah seems to be fine now.
O2 website said there was a mast out locally. We had zilch signal from here towards town and then the signal was fine in town but went again the other side so they had more than one mast out :rotfl:
Hind sight is fabulous, I kicked myself for not picking up one of the kids mobiles as they're on ee.

Finally back home without buying any clothes for myself
The local O2 phone mast has gone tits up so when I went back out I had no phone signal.
I spent the best part of an hour trying to work out how to meet my other half after the match had finished and trying to find a payphone so I could ring home and check DS was OK (poor lad was worried sick as he hasn't been able to ring me)
60p minimum charge in a phone box now! :eek:
So much for my lovely shopping day today I spose it ended up very MSE as we've spent a grand total of only £25 today on everything
Will have to do my clothes shopping when I met up with Tiger :j

Remember when it was a tanner 6d in phone box :rotfl:

I got Belfast
You see the best in everything, and don’t mind being creative with your options. Belfast welcomes you - from music to food to arts, it’s all yours for the taking.

I got Cornwall....I wish would be my dream come true
