Mudbath glad you are so enthusiastic- I think that is one of the secrets as being on this thread and marking of a list and doing a HHC or two makes ho****ork a little more durable.


The list for tomorrow will be displayed on the first page of this thread any time between now and about 9pm depend on how busy l'il me is

Hi guys :wave: Welcome new people :hello:

Thanks for your Good Luck wishes re: the interview it went fantastically well, I surprised myself at how confident and sure I was - go me! there was cleaning questions galore that were a bit 'duh' so simple and yet obviously some people don't walk backwards to the door when cleaning a floor, as that was the answer to one of the questions lmao - I'll know tomorrow if I've got the job or not!

Just come back in from littleys party drowning in left-over party food which will feed us all tomorrow aswell, she got a Nintendo Wii off nana and granda with 4 games and an extra controller :eek: they're playing on it now, she also got £80 in cash off various folks, a pink mobile phone off her Dad and pressies off us :eek: :eek: silly...

Right, it's my go on the Wii.........gerroff kiddie-winks mamas coming!

*swoons* shoes!

OK, I have a nasty plan... ( I did have 3 pairs but just made a decision! )

one week from Thursday I will have enough to buy these £60 ones,

From Next because I know they fit [strike]my fat legs[/strike] me.


Kids are in bed so I can start turbo listing! :T

Pigpen, you dont live in Liverpool, do you? I still get taken aback when I'm visiting and see peeps in their slippers. I'm loving the pink boots and was actually comtemplating getting them. (But I dont need them and they wouldnt go with anything)

Pink Fairy just to add what everyone else has said. I have depression (as do a lot on the boards) and you need to take things easy at first. But now I'm back to work full time and managing to fly.

Cha97michelle did you find out what the payment was? I always phone the bank up to find out and its usually something I've forgotten!

Anyhoo, disgusting story to be skipped over for those with a nervous disposition. I read this 'Wipe out the fridge, make sure the drain is clear ' and thought, hmmm what is the drain? Euwwww, I found it!!! It was black and minging!! I've taken the plug thing out and am soaking it in stardrops. Its totalling black as well. I am soooo glad I found this thread.

And a brighter note, I have just read my WM manual and there isnt a filter to clean/change. Phew!!! Tea time now and then some more flying xx

I should mop the floor, looking at boots has made me NEED a black dress to go with them! Or a skirt... and then a new top too.... *shakes* THIS is why I have been BANNED!!! :eek:

pigpen

Tia.. I likes those boots.. I might get a pair just to annoy you lol!! I have REALLY wide calves though.. they usually don't fit in anything above the ankle!!.. I'd wear them with black tights and a little skirt.. and a strappy top.. and my hair in bunches..

skint.. NO I most certainly do not live in Liverpool.. and if I did, I'd move!!

I decided.. the black ones and the purple ones are going back and the red ones are so lovely I'm going to wait until the black ones are back in stock and buy those too!!

My hard work on the fish pie and the little shitss won't eat it.. I'm going to warm it up for them tomorrow if they dont.

Did I mention.. tha parsley sauce.. 'best before Sept 01' and the salmon 'BBE 08 June 07'???

Well.. noone is dead yet!!

tiamai_d

Pigpen Thats why I'm getting them from next! the only pair of knee highs that have fitted me in years is a pair from Evans! But the Next ones seem to fit ok, made for proper women, not walking skeletons.

Right, so £60 worth of Good Quality items onto Ebay.

pigpen

PMSL.. I fed hubby the fish pie.. and told him about my 'potato skin soup'.. he asked if there was a war on.. and is now taking the pee about there being bread and dripping for dinner and HM rice pudding for pudding!
