    Typical me - I start to post on a diary just as it's closing down :rotfl:

    Subscribing here too and settling in for the new adventures :)

    Actually Shortie it was your epic efforts in ploughing through my old diary that prompted me to start the new one ;) No one should have to suffer that :rotfl: Glad you've followed me over here.

    The diary has worked its magic and I have carried some stones today:

    House Move:
    • one room cleaned thoroughly - to 'I wouldn't be embarrassed for anyone to see it' standard :A
    • 10 floppy discs destroyed
    • 10 pieces of paperwork filed
    • several files reviewed
    • a little researching of the area via R1ghtm0v£ done :o

    General MS (and for Busy Mee):
    I need to do a stock check of the fridge tomorrow as I suspect there are some sulky vegetables in there that need using up.

    Let's hope I've started as I mean to go on.

    Mr F and I made the mistake(?) of looking at properties in Wales. We could buy a farm house, outbuildings and 30 acres for less than our house here is worth :eek: It's a possibility...

    Happy weekend all
