    Dont know if this is of any use to you kimberley, its a thread from the 'shop but dont drop board'

    Thank you Gunsandbanjos for that Link :beer:

    Well after some seaching i went for the Creda at Comets :D I can't wait to finally dry my bed stuff in a day. Currently i have 3 single beds and one double bed sized bedding to wash once a week and it's a pain in the buttocks to have them all hanging around the house trying to dry them ;) they takes days to dry, now from Friday i can dry them quickly :D

    First batch of ebay stuff in the post.. only another 49 to so.. 2 are being collected. It did cost me an extra 30p for lollies.. I told the chimps if they were good inthe PO they could have a lolly.. good job really as it was packed.. There were loads of students sending stuff to the orient.. and all talking really loudly!

    DS1 is off to quacks in an hour so I need to wake him up and get him dressed and out the door.

    Back to my packing.

    I have a lump of lamb in the SC which is smelling divine now and my tummy is growling like a bear!!

    Afternoon all

    Not much flying done today. DD1 to docs for 8.30 when they open, finally got out at 10am:eek: . DD1 has got scarletina (Sp?) or mild scarlet fever so is covered in a rash and feeling pretty yucky! I'm knackered from not having a decent nights sleep since Friday (due to her being restless, crying out in sleep etc) but then I sat up till 11.30pm last night watching crappy telly - I never learn.

    Yeah Pigpen - excellent ebay sales there. I struggle when i have about 6 things to post so dont know how you manage it.

    Dh staying late at work to play table tennis:rolleyes: . Do you think if I lie on the couch for 10 mins they will leave me alone or do you think as soon as my bum hits the couch one of the littles will need something.
  • Yeah - my windowmen have gone for today and I'm now the proud owner of a bow window and a set of french windows sport-smiley-001.gif. And the builder says that he can come tomorrow and fit 2 lintels and build two back steps while the window guys are putting in a back door. Sorted, and the builder did it at a fair price. 3 and a bit more days of chaos and then peace and quiet...ah bisto!!!

    How are you getting on with the ironing mountain Destiny? Is it now just a hill?

    Anyone up for another HHC at 4pm? I need to do the bathrooms now I'm home alone.
    I'd rather be watching CSI!
