Happy Birthday Nikkster!

My vote went off last week - I have a postal vote as it's so hard for me to get out of the house. Good thing this time round, as have dentist tomorrow! :eek:

No idea what they're promising to do/not, not watched any telly on it - and it's all b0ll0x/promises and smoke/mirrors anyway, so no real point reading about it or watching it as they twist things and lie and avoid questions..... put me down as: disenchanted/disinterested.

I watched it a lot. Much to the despair of Mrs. Wheezy, she'll be glad when tomorrow is gone. I'll probably 'try' to stay up late tomorrow to see some results coming in, but then doze off around 11 anyway.

This is a sad day in our household.

The washing machine has finally packed up after 23 years honourable service.

Just ordered a replacement from John Lewis Kingston.....apparently we can claim £100 cashback from the manufacturer if we fill some stuff in.............never had "cashback" before....seems a bizarre idea, why not just sell it to me for £100 less ?

Does Shakin Stevens live with you Nikks :eek:

P.S. I was 33 once...........................and then I wasn't.

What make was it purch? Sounds like it deserves an honourable mention. Are you going for the same brand again?

Nikkster

P.s. no comments about how the locks should perhaps have been placed differently relative to the windows please! Too late now (and there are extra bolts for when I'm in and the deadlock for when I'm out).

Happy birthday Nikks! Your new door looks lovely. It rocks the silver coloured door furniture. Wish mine was like that and not horrible brass.

My parent's ancient B&O tv gave up the ghost recently. It's about as old as I am.
I told them they're not allowed to dispose of it until I've said goodbye in person.

I took my B&O speakers to the tip recently. I bought them second hand for my first house... In 1986. Their stuff is certainly built to last.
