    :eek: to the tooth. Hope it's one you can't see. That's what eating toffee does to you. Don't get me started on the what needs doing to the house.com. I don't know where to start, although next door neighbour is having a loft conversion and is going to send his builder round to give me some quotes - am prepared to be shocked.

    So.Cant believe that tomorrow is the first of October.
    So. Next week hopefully for the one conservatory window & the sitting room door. I just cant wait. Not looking forward to parting with the money but hey ho.
    Then sometime in October the fence of doom.
    Have made some small OP's this month but that will be that for now.
    I am short on the pennies front but that is how it is.

    Also I have received a community volunteer award for my volunteering with a local disability charity. Had a nice evening.
