morning all, mad clean day to get rid of all the dust the workmen left in my room, however my room seems like the only room that got covered :rolleyes: have to put my new flooring down too but that wont be happening till tommorow. Other than that (fingers crossed) if my bessie mate want to go to my pub i shall be going out and spending a few bob only on two meals and some water for me though. Also need to make it to the asian store sometime this weekend for sandwich bags and my joke stocking pressies for my bro and sis maybe tommorow :rolleyes:

hope you all have a good day

Hi all it's another cold grey day here. We're off to see DS1 today, I can't wait, he is too busy with coursework, exam prep, school theatre productions to come home and I haven't seen him since half term though we speak 1-3 times a day on the phone (thank goodness for vodafone friends and family). So we're going up to the school to pick him up and take him out for a few hours. We'll do the food shop and stock him up with some treats, maybe grab a McD/KFC or if I'm feeling generous a Pizza Hut meal:D the take him back to school. He comes home for xmas next Friday so not long until he's home for a good length of time. I miss him so much:rolleyes: and he's great at emptying the dishwasher:D :rotfl:

Just been sent a letter from a DCA asking for £60 to pay a parking fine when I overstayed by 12 minutes at a retail park a couple of months ago. They can sing for it!! There is absolutely no chance of me paying the barstewards!

hi snaggles, the whole of the house has been rewired this week (council house). Now as my room is the largest nearly all my floor boards had to be lifted. Anyways we had soem lino from an insurance claim ages ago only mum didnt lay it i the kitchen so she said i could have it in my room (i have two different colloured carpets at the mo). So i am unable to put my room back together today i have to wait untill toomorow :rolleyes: But as you can imagin having all your floorboards and carpets pulled up has created a lot of dust ~ its awfull :rotfl:

hope you ahve a good day whatever you are up too

Never mind PaP - at least the wiring is safe now, and you won't have to put up with the 'upheaval' over Christmas.
Good luck with the cleaning. :beer:
