    Please let us know how the book & program compare - I’ve got it in my reading pile and haven’t watched yet.

    Love a good sort out / life laundry session.  We still use the old Wii when family comes to visit. They are all bowling mad. So I’m sure that a charity shop would be thrilled to have your console.  

    Our local CS does a roaring trade in dvds as well.  The  recent push back against watching poorly cut streamed series/films has given dvds a revival. 

    I sorted out OH’a old neck ties and culled about 40 of them - popped on Oli@ free to collector and a fashion student snapped them up with promises to send photo of finished product. I wonder what they will make of them!

    A serious vote here for a proper loft ladder with some sort of hand rail at the top for when you step off & on.  The last thing we need is you taking a tumble getting into or out of the loft

    OMG looked out of my window about 30 minutes ago and several police in unmarked cars were going on the park across the road with a dog 😱 I’m sure one of them had a gun! I live in a really quiet area and this is extremely unusual! They’ve just come back so obviously not found what they were looking for. I wonder if they were acting on a tip off. One of the policemen jumped over the woman across the road’s wall and it’s quite high. Oh my days 😱

  • I hate things like that. We had the police helicopter out again this week and they kept going back and forwards over our gardens. Then I keep hearing noises at my patio door 😳I don't close my curtains downstairs because no me can see in my house and my back garden is secluded and can only be entered through the car park then a really small footpath that you can't see but I closed the blinds on the doors because it was freaking me out
