    Well while making my tea and eavesdropping one if the children said ooh I've never been drunk before:eek: me bursting into the room.. There faces... Turns out one of his delightful friends has bought round a mix of vodka and sours :eek: and there was me believing he had been sick cause they ate to many sweets :eek:

    Anybody like Worcestershire crisps? We've got a cupboard of them. I'm hoping if they ever invent a star drive it'll need those crisps instead of those ridiculous dilithium crystals.:D

    how about this which isn't that but is IMHO rather good

I have gone for the I am not angry but very disappointed approach and am now sat in the kitchen repeating to myself ... Sweets made him sick someone slap me with a wet fish:rotfl::rotfl: can't believe I fell for it :rotfl:

    It's really unfortunate that you need the original certificate, or a copy of it from FENSA. That's probably what's taking the time?
    I do agree though, it's something you'd have to hand if you were selling?

    I am just shocked it has not been picked up until now. Though guess that is her buyer's solicitors fault. I hope it has been ordered already, read online earlier they can take ages to arrive.

    It was quite obvious from the questions I had to answer was a problem if you had windows fitted after april 2002 you needed either building regs approval or fensa cert, so I told my solicitor then I didn't have either. I even did my own checking online to see fensa had not been issued for mum's.

    I must have brains after all. :rotfl:

    EA said exchange early next week now. But he said that week before. Really wish I had thought to take my buyers phone no. to speak to her direct about it. :o

    If I'm ever feeling peed off at trying to get DS2 to eat more healthily. I think of a friend of mine. His daughter was featured on a TV programme a few years back. She restricted her diet more than anyone I'd come across :( all she would eat was Sainsburgs own brand cooking chocolate :eek: what they went through made me totally count my blessings! and still does!!

    :eek::eek::eek: How on earth did they get hold of that at 13. :rotfl:

    The worse I had was sweets stuck to the carpet the next morning as they had overindulged. :rotfl:

    I would love to be a fly on the wall in your house at the moment. ;)

    I'm sorry ILTS but this has got me :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I would have been like you not have even considered it at 13, I was a good girl at that age. Now at 15 that would have been a different story. ;)

    I wonder how your DD is getting on FC. :rotfl:

    Evening all, finally home! I officially hate Friday traffic - 13 hours to do a round trip from London to Nottinghamshire. How's everyone? Also TS I got your message but didn't want to wake you up responding :)
