    I've been to meet my new colleagues today in readiness for next week :)

    They're as mad as a box of frogs :eek:

    So I will fit in quite nicely :rotfl:

    So, so much nicer than that place that made me so miserable :o

    Feeling a bit better today the sensitive skin area is smaller. I will go to bed early again tonight as I have another race this weekend! Warning about to post my charity page when I remember where I put it.


    Also dropped my 1st bag of food items of in the Tesco food bank today. Thanks to whoever posted that Tesco's have them. The local church does food bank but I don't like going there and this is more convenient and an extra 30%

    Morning peeps. (just!) :)

    New co-op deal.

    http://www.co-operativefood.co.uk/5-frozen-meal-deal

    Oooh noticed a few more co ops a bit nearer to me that are doing this deal. Not the ones very near me though :mad:
    So worth checking out if your co op is on this list now if it wasn't there before. :)

    I am supposed to be moving off my rear end, will do soon.

    I have bought three sets of the 5 tier plastic shelves and am slowly rearranging the big spare room. I have emptied and collapsed a double wardrobe that was about the collapse, am about to finish collapsing a large chest of drawers that is falling apart anyway. The computer desk and sewing desk are going along one wall. In between all this I have NOWHERE to put everything that is in the room, including two heavy filing cabinets so it is constantly being rearranged and I am working in a very small area while trying to get it sorted.

    In the meantime I am trying to figure out what to do with the rolls of wrapping paper that lived in the wardrobe along with the games, think I might have to make a solid container for those because they will not easily go on the shelves.

    Wish me luck, I will get going again - soon :eek:

    Emma had the same problem and ended up buying these carrier bag dispensers from Ikea. You can hang them on the wall or chuck in them in the cupboard and they hold about 10 rolls:

    Hope that helps, there's loads of stuff on Pintrest like this too. Morning all :whistle:

    Good luck with the sorting.

    I have wrapping paper in a tall thin box (and also use the plastic bags they give you) which I put sideways, bottom to the back, alongside a filing cabinet. It means I can see the top of the roll (which is now facing me) and simply pull out the one I want. I also keep the cardboard inserts and sometimes put one roll inside another to save space and keep it safe. This also makes use of the small space between the filing cabinet and the side wall. Hope that makes sense... :o
