    PinkFairy I put a post up about vacuums on last week's post, right at the bottom. Hope it helps, but I can't help with laminate flooring I'm afraid.

      I was sure I posted a "Thank you" to Natty about Dysons. Also thanks to Lil_me. :confused: Oh well, off to bed. Got to be up to chase DD to have early brekkie before op and DS has to be in school for 9, which is not good as he doesn't do mornings, especially if he's been wandering at 2 or 3 am - we often meet on the landing - prob is I've been to sleep, but he hasn't!:eek:) Night all

      Hi Denise I'm not often still up when you are rising. Hope the sun is shining for you. I often wonder how you found MSE?

      Johanne she is just lovely. Hope you get lots of rest, sit and cuddle her all day (that's if you can sit ok?)

      Just going to update my list and then off to bed. I've been watching desperate housewives, I used to watch it and stopped a couple of series ago so not sure why I watched but I enjoyed it.
