I sympathise....but have now read it'll be fixed in a week.


I still am in awe of my newly insulated and efficiently heated house. Last winter we went months with the back being built and open to all the elements ...just the doors to the 2 bedrooms at the back blocked the freeze that seeped through.
We were cold all the time and had periods during the work when the heating that we did have was turned off.











Well, been AWOL as I had a bit of an accident



I was told off too for not getting treatment but did get a bonus mini health check with blood pressure etc test which reassured me as they were all 100%.


Now got antibiotics, a professionally done breathable bandage and a problem as it will take 4 weeks for the skin to grow back and we have The Clothes Show next week which is a very thumb busy event.
.

I am in awe of np who put themselves through arctic conditions to renovate their homes. the radiators were off and the sitting room cold here this morning as OH turned the heating thermostat down to 20 overnight. that was enough to invoke evil thoughts on my part.


sorry about your accident, hope the telling off made a lasting impression on you . If it had been one of your kids would you have let the carry on for so long?
can you restyle the thumb bandage as a thumb hat in something eye catching. vet wrap comes in day glo yellow and pink

Not picking up new car until Monday, garage pointed out it was silly to waste a tax month for a few days.

Dealer speak for 'its not ready for you yet'.

Sorry to hear about the thumb, would a rubber thimble help?

Thank for the tip-off re the mattress, viva. I managed to bag one for DS. I'd just bought him a mattress topper, but he really did need a new mattress.

It's a better quality one than he's currently using, and was cheaper

You're welcome. The great thing with Amazon is you don't have to worry how to get a mattress home:D

I suppose it's not being helpful if I say I've never had/used either of those.

oops...I didn't realise 'knickers' was just for females.
Before anyone thinks I'm into cross dressing, I've amended my post.:p
Hmm, that was embarrassing.

There's a "down to 20"? Blimey. Mine never gets put on "up to 20"!

Equal opportunities for knicker-wearing as far as I'm concerned Wheezy. It's 2014

Well done pn.

Proud of you.

You HAVE started!

Your GP might be able to direct you somewhere but NHs coverage might not be very good. GP would certainly be a good place to start though, and give you some direction as to what might be available locally.
