    Morning all
    Just having a coffee in bed before I hit the shower
    Late night last night as I was out with friends. Almost lost a top! I had to dash out so I changed at my friends and left the top in her hubby's car. The when we dropped someone off it ended up in the road - but I spotted it, realised what it was and we went back for it!
    I had been in a rush as I went to the dentist then the hygienist- good news there though as my interdental regime is paying dividends.
    2 x WM to peg out shortly

    Anyone fancy joining me for a HHC @ 9.45?

    Just dropped DD off at her friend's so I suppose I ought to make a start although I have been folding some carrier bags while I've been watching TV.

    Running to catch up with you, juliejim, but I'll be doing HHPaperwork and urgent emails, followed by more work on updating the charity website and trying to get the new logo on each page.

    Spent half an hour on internet banking last night and another 20 min on the phone to the bank this morning, trying to open a new ISA - but their online system is unfit for purpose so I'll have to go to the branch in town this afternoon :mad::mad::mad:

    ionafan, who have you gone with for your ISA, I have been looking but all the rates are low, I was hoping for something a little better, otherwise it look like the Coventry this year.

    Flying, put out the rubbish, cleaned the bin

    Kazwookie, this is what I had last year and want to open another this year. You can set up a regular weekly/monthly payment and also add in extra bits as you are able - however, you are not allowed to transfer funds in from another ISA. You can make unlimited withdrawals with no notice if you need them.

    DH has taken the laurel bush to the tip.
    I've made some progress on the paperwork and emails. Now to update the website...

    How did you get on, juliejim?

    :eek: Thought my computer screen had just died on me :eek: but have checked the plugs and must have just caught the cable under the desk with my foot and pulled out the 13A plug a couple of millimetres - normal service has been resumed :D

    I've hoovered the stairs and hall. I hate hoovering the stairs, it kills my back! I also had to redo a recruitment leaflet I'd done as when I checked the proofs from the printers I'd put a @ instead of a . so that was then emailed back to them. DS then wanted a lift into town so I've dropped him off and nipped into Iceland and HB as well. Washing is on the line so I'm going to see if the kids have managed to put their washing from the weekend into the wash!

    Swept all through downstairs, out a load of christmas pressie buts in the stash cupboard, helped Ds2 find the Xbox racing pedal and in the process cleared a binbag of junk from spare room. Put a few more bits in the Cs bag, ring framing shop to let the know DD2 is bringing them some more work from me and done a few rows of knitting.
    Finally got round to emailing my auntie.

    DS3 sulking because I won't let him play a 15 rated game with my 10 year old or while the younger 3 are about.. He flounced to his room.

    10 year old playing nicely outside in the sun with Squeak and Dot.. She made them a picnic.. I went to do lunch and found her in there already so fed them chocolate bunnies.

    Pixie a bit young to play but she is trying.


    I cleaned up a dead rat.. that's my lot for today!
