Thanks for the new thread, Lil_me. I appreciate the time you spend gee-ing us all up.
Poohbear, have a hug, I hope things improve soon for you and your Dad and that you come back when you can.
Pigpen,that's LOADS better.:T
Welcome to the thread,Debtfreehopeful, Iread your other thread, enjoy the swimming when you get the cast off and then jump right in here! (Not at the deep end to start with though!)
Welcome back jjef.
I should have it easy this week, list wise, as I think I did pretty well last week, I'll have no excuses for not doing my niggley jobs then will I?
Very little achieved today, mainly discovered that my oven door is not smoked glass either (whoever that was last week). Took it off and did the 'inbetweeny' bit but the inside door is going to take some persistant effort.
Got an outing Friday night and Saturday night and my parents coming over on Sunday so I must be done and dusted by Thursday this week.
Where does time go?
Have a good Monday, I'll be around tomorrow evening. (Haven't forgotten to remind AnW'sMum to stay in between 7 and 9 for her delivery!)

mmmmm does anyone know if you can top up a PAYG T mobile phone online? Mum is in Ireland and only has 1 min of call time left! I know I can do it at an ATM but the closest is 2 miles away.Official Mascot and Chief Cheerleader for the 'Mortgage Free in Three' Gang0

Thanks for asking him, looks like you can do it from the T mobile site. Will call dad and let him know, otherwise I will call my friend at work and ask her to top it up tomorrow (she works at the bank where we have an ATM) and I'll put the money in her account.
Right I am going to have a quick soak (given the lateness of the evening already) and read of my book.Official Mascot and Chief Cheerleader for the 'Mortgage Free in Three' Gang0 -
