    Welcome back Sheils.

    Oh good idea with the garden bags Sylvia.

    Euro how's the car? We just had a £700 bill for our car, lots of little things wrong eg back window not working, tyres(£100each) water coolant thingy etc, we looked at getting another car but decided to fix this one up as its nice and big (people carrier thing).

    Hope everyone is well. I've been spoilt today, had work this morning, then DH took DD shopping, when they got home he send DD in first and she was carrying a lovely bunch of flowers. He is doing bed time and I've just had a bath (which I love but I get bored quickly), now having pizza and garlic great with a hobgoblin....mmm

    Have a lovely evening guys
    Let's be happy!!

    Hope its not too much money. Do you use the brown paper to send parcels? If so have you considered buying blue garden waste bags and cutting them up, its much cheaper and keeps them dry too. I use them when I sell on Ebay.

    Thanks Sylvia. I didn't know about that. I will get some of those next time. Thanks for the tip :)

    The car didn't need new brakes in the end, but two new front tyres instead as the tread had worn down to below the minimum acceptable. Either way, still cost us 283 quid! Eek!

    Still, these were waiting for me when I got home :)

    Forgot to add, we have had bright sunshine today with a nip in the air, I like it when it's sunny but cold, but we have just had a major thunder storm and hail etc.
    Let's be happy!!

    Sounds like you have been well and truly spoiled today Kitten. How lovely. Enjoy it while you can and what a lovely thought DD bringing the flowers in. You deserve to be spoiled.

    Think it was me who got mixed up between Indie and Euro, sorry.

    Welcome back sheils and lovely pics too on fb :)

    Hope the car passed it's mot euro!

    That's a shame you had to babysit again Sylvia. You're such a good mum/nan :) Hope you grt time to yourself tomorrow xx

    Sorry to hear your mum wasn't well Bella xx Hope she is on the mend soon.

    We don't seem to get any frogs now fire**fly, maybe since we got jasper. The kids used to love seeing them hopping around the garden! :)

    Aw that's lovely of your DD & DH getting you the flowers kitten :)

    We have just had a weird lad banging on our door,meh was definately up to something. When DH answered he said he was just warning us there was a bike at the side of our house. When DH said there was no bike there he said again he was just warning us. DH was curious about him so drove out in the car to follow him and he was on the next road with a bike all of a sudden. Not sure where he got bike from but he tried to hide from DH. We told neighbours around to be aware of him. Definately dodgy!

    Edit...just read your post euro, got distracted while typing. Well done on the coconut water :)
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!
