    Good the boiler is done, now when you need it on, you know it's working correctly.

    Must say though it's been warmer the past day or so here.

    Have a good day Beanie , hope you get out today.

    Beanie,
    I think the day I stayed in for the delivery of fence panels I hadn't actually managed to order the fence panels. Don't think I completed it correctly.

    So complete waste of time :beer:

    Hopefully the physio will be worth it. I used to be in agony when I had mine for my ankle but it was better later. Glad you tackled the cupboard of doom, I think we've all got at least one of those!

    Hope you have a nice weekend xx

    Some of us not only have cupboards of doom but also relatives of doom!

    Used to refer to an office at work where they did the monitoring (ie. have you met your targets, have you spent the money you committed yourself to) as THE ROOM OF DOOM
