    It's a date. I'll be in touch to make arrangements nearer the time.
    I'm chuffed to bits with my hair. I've managed to keep a bit more length than I thought and she managed to make it appear thicker than it actually is. Not sure I'll be able to recreate that myself though when I have to style it.
    Is it bin day for you? We've had a leaflet telling us we have to start paying to have the green bins emptied :eek: :mad: I compost the vast majority of my garden waste but I still have 2 full bins right through the summer as I can't compost absolutely everything. I think I'm going to be forced to pay but I will only be using one bin as it would be £55 for both :eek:

    We have always had to pay if we want organic waste taking away. You have to pay for the green bin/sacks, pay for it to be taken away, then you still have to buy the compost if you want it:eek:

    Needless to say I have a very large compost bin.
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare

    We don't pay anything. Black bin, green bin (garden waste), brown bin (recyclables), paper bin. All collected once a fortnight for free :j

    Snap, when my mum was ill my BIL rigged up a set of doorbells so she just had to push a button when she needed something. Might be easier to hear :)

    :T Many thanks, brilliant solution - sent Mum off to buy a door bell. Arg0s £5.99 - but did she buy that? No - bought one from a local shop for £22.99 :eek::eek::eek:

    Had the battle today of Dad wanting the powered chair & my Mum resisting, he is meant to have one supplied by NHS - Got Mum to ring & it will be 18 weeks before he is even assessed for one. Dad said he would be dead by then - having to be parked all the time :rotfl:
    He also wants a stair climber (takes a wheel chair up stairs :) ) so he can get to TV, loo, kitchen etc
    Anyway we then rang a local mobility company & asked if they supplied power chairs..
    Lovely man, coming tomorrow with a red powered chair for Dad to try, also a ramp to get to TV, and will discuss stair climbers - £400 cash :T:T & can sell it back before 6 months too

    Today I've done stuff that nurses & carers do as part of their jobs :p:p:p feeling proud :D

    A's, on the end of the baby isle in mine and just had cashback approved on CoS.

    Note our A's have a habit of sneakily putting full price lines on the "reduced" rack too... sneaky:mad:
