    Hola everyone, weather is nice up here but is a little on the cold side. I was gonna try and level the shed base out so I could put it up but the builders aint open and i cant buy any sand so I shall do that tomorrow. Gonna hoover and wash the cars. Hey Mrs S, morning! Sounds like Natasha's high temperature may be related to the old conjunctivitus maybe. I knew a lad who had conjunctivitus, it was really bad. He had just come back from Thailand where he had been entertaining the ladeeeessss.........

    Way to go girl. Remember food isnt the enemy. Its what you eat and when you eat it, try to shake up what you eat, keep your body guessing (says adonnis here!:rotfl:)

    hhmmm, my stupidity (or laziness) has broke a bit on my car.

    Next door cut down/burnt out a huge pampas grass last summer and over the summer and this winter 3 little ones have popped up on my front lawn - I guess from the bits that blew off but a seed has somehow also managed to get into a crack in the concrete right in the middle of the driveway and it started to grow.

    It has kind of been kept down (to about 6 inches or so) because I drive over it every day on and off the drive, but I always hear it 'brush' the underside of the car as I reverse over it and I always thought - 'one day that is going to knacker something'.

    I've noticed recently when walking towards the car something kind of 'hanging' a bit at the front, so I got down and had a look and there is a kind of plastic mud guard running all the way around the underneath of the car in front of the wheels and right at the front in the middle, just where the bloody grass stuff hits it each day when I reverse back it has split.

    It isn't important to the running of the car, and I reckon superglue will fix it, but I'm cross at myself for being so lazy.

    I've just cut the pampas down as far as I can but I can't get it out altogether. It's about 7 inches in diameter and about 3 inches high now. I guess I'll have to either burn it or get some stump killer.

    Serves me right really - I shouldn't be given nice things to play with if I can't respect them!!!!
    :D"Stay Wonky":D
