    There are people that put together flat pack furniture for a living.

    Don't know whether I am saying this to suggest PN is to be congratulated for doing it all herself or as a future employment opportunity.

    PN just one word of advice, carry your mobile on you when assembling flat pack furniture. ;)
    One woman needed rescuing after she was trapped inside a flat-pack wardrobe while she assembled it at her home.

    A firefighter said: "She wasn't that unhappy as she had her cigarettes with her while she was waiting to be rescued."

    At the risk of sounding repetitious, I'm still really bloody tired.

    I slept in until gone 7am this morning. Then I slept for 40 minutes at lunchtime and I slept on the bus on the way home. Now it's 9:10pm and I'm zonked again. Aaargh!

    Just had a nice surprise - some stuff I ordered online just arrived, a couple of days before I expected it. Nice soaps, cologne and shower gel. I really enjoy less cheap soap to use every day, as it's an affordable luxury. Anyway, the place I got this stuff from (Escentual) has a third off Roger and Gallet products for the whole of August - just in case any other NP are fond of their soaps etc. Free gift of a pouch + R&G body lotion (you just get a random flavour, can't choose) and emery board plus some samples. So a fun package to open up! :j

    Duck has been sat in the harbour ever since I posted her picture. Long and complicated story! :o But they finally got her onto her moorings yesterday (aided by a trailer and a lot of Seabird stallwarts), and today have 2 races... But I haven't seen the Seabirds out sailing yet, so not sure what's happening. First race was supposed to be an 11am start. Suppose they might be on part of the course that's out of sight from here, but I usually see at least part of the race!

    OH forgot to bring a sweater with him <rolls eyes>, so have ordered a couple in the Woolovers sale, hopefully they will arrive on Friday. It's lovely and sunny today, but it can still be chilly out on the water, so it was a bit silly to forget sweaters when packing! Needless to say I managed to find a couple of sleeveless tops for me too, one deep pink, the other French Navy. :)

    When my son was about 10, his ball got stuck in a tree. So, he popped round to the local fire station to ask them to get it down for him, which they did. It must have been a quiet day for fires.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    Tested it 2.6MB download, 0.35MB upload. "That's good for your line" she said
    :(

    No watching catchup TV for me I suspect with that!

    BBC iplayer says 2Mb/s is enough to watch iplayer in standard definition.
