    Thanks guys.....having a break from cleaning.
    Dishwasher has decided to die - laptop did too but managed to resuscitate it.
    Thinking about an iPad - anyone got one? And if you do, what's worth having - how many GB? is 3G necessary? can I get a green one???

    I have an Ipad and really really wish that instead I had bought the smallest Macbook air, more money but infinitely more useful. The lack of Flash really drives me mad. I haven't met a single other person who doesn't love their Ipad though!

    Glad you had a good time Radish!

    Well, I went ahead and got the iPad - love it! I still have the laptop (even if somewhat ailing!) and if i need office etc I can use my work one (not ailing).

    The viewings prob won't lead to anything (ended up having two, but one was today and I didn't know so the house wasn't as I would have liked and the cat + tray were in - i usually banish them to the shed for viewings. And I hadn't made the bed - embarrassed as now the world knows I'm a slob, not just me!

    Anyway we'll see!

  • Another viewing tomorrow, so three in less than a week. Also the fortnightly report says my house is getting more than average hits on the website now.
    No feedback yet on the viewing which should not have happened on Monday. At least the house will be tidy tomorrow even though i spent over two hours in casualty tonight with my mother!!! (she is thankfully ok if a little sore after a fall this evening).
    Mr C home tomorrow night too so looking forward to that :D
