    It's been cold and dull here all day, where is the summer? Is it going to arrive? :(

    I think I might put my summer clothes away now and get my Autumn collection out, seems that I need them :). I've got the heating on very low, just to remove the chill in the air.

    My new washing machine is coming today between 4pm and 7pm. We have a problem though :eek: dh can't get the old machine unconnected from water pipe. He says it's been connected for 25 years. Now I know for sure that the machine isn't that old :eek: he doesn't want ao to disconnect as it would cost him (it's only a few pounds for heavens sake) and it's not because he is mse. He sprayed it with E45 trying to loosen the connection to no avail :rotfl: he has even been to the plumbing shop as ds3 had a try yesterday and broke a piece of it.

    It would have been cheaper to let ao disconnect :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: but I'm keeping my mouth shut, and not answering the door when the delivery arrives. I'll leave that to dh, he can explain then :rotfl: :rotfl:
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    I love a good omelette, or scrambled but got to use Lurpak and full fat milk :rotfl:, I am also quite partial to poached egg, a boiled egg is lovely with soldiers :)

    To cut it short, I love eggs :D
