    Thank you all for the birthday wishes.

    Well the fence panels are looking very nice. They are like er fence panels haha.
    Car battery not arrived now. Wish I had called out breakdown ppl as Im sure they do it there and then.

    Got some flowers from the kids and a M&S fruit hamper, which while I appreciate them I do feel I would have got a shop full with the amount that was probably spent :eek:

    Pleased you like your fence panels.

    The breakdown people would have done it much quicker, but you would have paid over the odds for it.

    Re the flowers and fruit hamper, I'm with you on that, but it is so lovely to have up market products now and again.

    A few years ago when I was off sick my team and colleagues bought me Moulten Brown and L'Occitaine products, it's taken me a while to realise that I should use them and enjoy them. I know you will have to use up your fruit hamper soon, but enjoy!!

    Me again, sort of related to last post.

    When the family arrived on Friday they obviously brought the contents of their fruit bowl/salad drawer with them!

    Our menu s for the next 3 days will mainly consist of avocados, peppers,asparagus, peaches, nectarines and satsumas!!

    Off to cook! tonight's meal will be a frittata, followed by a fruit salad with a mullers!

    Afternoon All
    Just printed some APGs only to find no ink. Replaced ink and tried to reprint, but it's saying I'm not using the right email ? Know what i used and have tried everyone i ever use, anyone got any ideas. About £25.00 0f APGs.

    Is it the message this apg has been claimed on another account (or something like that)? You probably have done but make sure you log out and clear your cookies - or perhaps use a different browser in case it is retaining some settings somewhere?

    I tend to claim them on a PC and use the Snipping tool to cut them out then paste into Word and resize images to 78%, narrow margins on the paper layout and that gets 6 vouchers on one sheet.
