    You and me both ...If I ever had to downsize for what ever reason :eek:I would always want a garden however small ...something lovely about being able to open the french windows and take a walk around the garden and look at what has managed to make it through the winter :T

    Me three. I love it even more on days like today when it is this warm already.
    I've had my breakfast, without the fizz that TM knows her own habits best :rotfl: if anyone sees me on here after 10am can they remind me I'm nil by mouth and water only.
    Thanks for the kind words everyone my Op is 4.30 so you never know I might make the night shift :D
    It's five days short of a year since my diagnosis and boy what a year it's been. It's not everyone who can manage two consecutive summers off work :cool:

    I took out one of these cashback deals from mobilephonedirect, and 6 months on, I've just successfully claimed my first cashback instalment . Further payments due at 9 months, 12 months etc.

    So basically, I'm saying they really do payout the cashback but you have to be diligent with your diary!

    That's him all over. Don't get me wrong, I love him to bits (though I'll fight to the death if you make me say that to him :p), but he is a right muppet :rotfl:

    He's in the process of buying his first house at the moment and he's treating this place like a hotel in the meantime.

    Never had a tumble dryer, never wanted one.

    Can't see the point of using all that power to do something that nature will do given enough time.

    That said, I do sometimes wish we had one for fluffy towels, but that is all.

    That's pretty much what I use it for, towels, undies and pjs. Everything else goes on the radiator or washing line (barring the odd occasion I'm running late for work :o). My brother on the other hand puts too much washing in and leaves it for 2hours :eek: I usually sneak in and lower it to 50 minutes and his washing still dries fine. He never notices :rotfl:
