Washing in machine, fingers crossed it stays dry for the next few hours :rotfl:

Have spent morning clearing up the paving slab trail left through the house by Fourp the other day At least I can now open front door without shame :o

Admittedly garden looking better :T I've planted the idea of a pergola on one side - so far he has shown me ½ boats that are covered seats...

inevitably I've got one bed linen load washed and on the line, another in the machine, all beds stripped and the sun has gone in

looks like I am going to be looking for the spare bed linen and trying to figure out which identical sheet and duvet cover is for a double and which is for a king size bed ...

I love this planting ideas thing. OH is now delighted that he had the idea to change the internal doors :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I am sure Fourp will be convinced his idea was wonderful

Have to say the ones that are done look absolutely fabulous, but it has hard work waxing them :eek:

mhoc, I think they should base a soap opera on your life :eek:

I've always said it would never get beyond the one off airing and then veetoed as being too unrealistic and not true to life

my soap opera would be written by a newly out of uni media studies student who barely scrapped through and has had to take a non paying script writing job for her first year ...:rotfl:

The omnibus would be 3 hours of you emailing cashback companies because they haven't paid out or answered your emails within 24 hours :rotfl:

Its funny how one thing leads to another.

I needed to send some money to someone but they said they would only have a cheque. The cheque book lives in a dusty corner on the desk, long, long ago evicted from the handbag
I found the cheque book and I then noticed 2 things - 1stly the cheque book must be about 5 years old as the first stub is for college winter skills course 2ndly it only has 2 cheques in it.
I don't really know now what is the quickest method of getting a new book is so I ring the bank up and order one.

the nice lady says you should have been automatically sent a new book but that might have been years ago.

so afterwards I check the very back of the desk draw to see if I have actually got a spare cheque book I've long forgotten about - I find a cheque book for eldest child who no longer belongs to this bank, my Dads cheque book which I cant let go of yet and a couple of our cheque books with account numbers I don't recognize - so most of these have to go in the shredder apart from my dads.

also I unearthed 2 bank credit slips dated 2011 and 2013 so this desk draw is more than ready to be emptied, downsized and compacted as soon as we get another wet afternoon - which might be sooner rather than later

so the postie will be bringing a new cheque book and I am getting prickles at the back of my neck as if a new cheque book has some significance and this is all down to fate ....
