Vacuum under furniture (only if you won't hurt yourself doing it, don't want any injuries)
Found a bra under the sofa - fortunately it was mine

We're all FAR too polite to ask how it got there!

Pleased to hear it went well, well done for getting the other things done too **big pat on the back for Muppet**.

Oh hell, will I ever catch up? I'm always starting today's list and tomorrows is up. I'll just not look.
Well done to all of you Flying high today,Hugs to those in need, Welcome to the New Folks and for those of you just posting for a good old gossip - great isn't it!

Had a 'bit of a day' as they say culminating just now with having to spend money at the vets for painkillers. (Poorly paw from scrapping). I'm itching to get started 'cos the livingroom is a bit of a shed and the floor needs vacc'ing again.

Here's a question some of you can answer for me.. How can I sensibly 'redistribute' about 2000 small jiffy bags that are due to go on a recycling skip. Oh, they belong to the government too. I can rescue them to my garage but then??? It's just a crime in my opinion.

Edit to say, I can't make money from them or I'll be sacked most likely.

Boston big hugs hun that sucks

DS2 cricket was cancelled he was a vile as could be and did not want to come swimming. DS3 tried really hard at the swimming, most of the time he just wants to get to the other side before anybody else so I think he is running in the water - competive my kids

DS3 has just been watching 'the night garden' on cbeebies - i want a pint of whatever the creators were drinking when they dreamt up that show.

Everyone fed apart from me - in a I don't fancy anything mood. Going to do last little bit of paperwork for the day and then spend the evening doing some hand sewing whilst watching tv.

I will return to see you all later x

Hev we have some wireless connection and I have no idea how to turn the modem off - is it the modem or pc at risk? ps I was very excited when I saw my name in bold and the words this is important.

Solwaykid, don't worry I'm not finished today either but I know some don't come on later and like to see what's 'on the board' before bed time. I'm not even looking even if I did type it With the bags I'd probably use them myself aswell, then offer them on freecycle maybe, they get snapped up on the one I use by people who do amazon/ebay sales.

Dusty usually the wireless router is a box in another place, can easily find them in most houses by tracing the phone cable, then find the power cable by going back down the line.

Poohbear59 hi

Solway freecylce you will have heaps on requests within minutes of posting them.

Solway freecycle I reckon is the way to go. Someone on my local group regularly offers used jiffy bags and they are always snapped up.

I am guessing they are new ones that you have, which size just so us ebayers know

This is looking like the way to go if I can persuade management - we have lockers and filing cabinets galore too - I think the stumbling block might be allowing folk on site to collect. I've never used freecycle but am happy to take the job on if it means no wastefulness.
Size 1 unused, very dusty. About big enough to fit a paperback in I'd say..

Thanks for your suggestions.

Sat here with a wet duster in one hand, off to finish the job..

Sorry missed this earlier - not exciting at all. I find that by about 7:00pm bras start to rub my back so I remove them where ever I am (ok in the house only) - hand up the sleeve job and lob them - embarasses the hell out of the kids!
