    Oooh.. were you the welsh dresser on freecycle??? I was going to beg that!! I'm the other one on there rehoming half my house (pigface60) I get about.. like scabies!

    I march like a member of the SS (and I do NOT mean Social Services.. they kind of 'skulk')

    My week is going from bad to worse and by Saturday (00:01am) I intend to be incapable of standing upright (off out Friday wiv me fwend.. unless she stands me up.. AGAIN!!!)

    I am NOW going to bed!

    ETA.. AFTER I've washed my skanky rainmanked hair!

    Yup that was me with the welsh dresser, in a completely non stalkery way I did wonder if you were pigface60, but thought I won't push me luck with emailing you all over the place and freaking you out.

    By gum, its wednesday already tomorrow, doesn't time fly < geddit, when you're on your kness with exhaustion.

    Ok folks going to head to bed soon, I'll leave you with this thought, which numpty defrosts a turkey (for 10 people) that was in her freezer, a christmas bargain, when she is really, really busy at work and her OH has just had 3 teeth removed.......I'll leave you to work that one out.:rolleyes:

    Anyone fancy coming round to mine for a turkey roast dinner?

    Re Tesco stuff it was shampoos and nappies (don't ask):rolleyes: at a car boot I managed to get rid of.:D

    Serena I invigilated those two exams - I thought the English was hard, the histroy had a lot to it and was all about choosing the right questions for what you have been taught. I hope they did well. Are they doing Geography tomorrow?

    Shell I will be keeping everything crossed for you tomorrow - I know you can do i, I can see you posting tomorrow that you have passed - go girl.

    AnW'sMum hugs for you hun, you have come so far and you know that some times are tough but you come through them, you keep smiling and you look up at that brightest star x

    Off to bed now, sleep tight and as you all hoover your matresses there will be no bugs to bite.

    hi all,
    i have finally moved house although it has taken 6 hard weeks of painting, ripping out old flooring and removing bathrooms etc.
    We still dont have bathrooms I have one working toilet, as we still have keys to old house until friday we are bathing there then its friends and relatives until bath suite is put back in we have done loads of the work ourselves - thank you to all here who ages ago posted about changing radiators I am now an expert and the only plumbing disaster was when we removed the old dishwasher and soaked the kitchen.

    Flying wise well it hasnt happened but I intend to start out here as I mean to go on so this week - Monday bathrooms I dont have ;) study full of boxes, Tuesday Living room as this is the only decent room its spotless Wed Kitchen again as this room is complete apart from DW is again is spotless. i dont have a hall at present its full of boxes the garage has a small path through the middle the rest cant be seen!!

    on the plus side i am having such a clear out that I will be on first name terms with the tipmen, I have joined the local freecylce group and have listed 10 things tonight - pigpen gone are the days of ebay listing freecyle is quicker and I need the space.

    quick catch up for me please =
    SSL - have you sold yet?
    Michelle - how is baby 2 doing
    lil_me - how is your course going mine started right in the middle of our move explained to tutor who was very understanding and is to call back next week.
    pigpen - still got 8?
    dusty - are you still invigilating I have been working extra at school to read & scribe during the SQA exams that was hard having to write down answers which you knew were wrong but couldnt say to the pupil.

    okay now i have authority to post again (changed email address and mucked up the validation, thanks to the mods who fixed things last night) i am off to other threads i used to try and keepup with.
    will be back tomorrow with a list of what I have done rather than what Ihope to do.

    Hi JJef yes I am. We have invigilators who scribe but I don't, I like you would find it very difficult. What do you do about spelling? Do they spell for you or is that not taken into account? I hope you are enjoying your new house and well done you on the plumbing!

    Boys and uniforms - DS3 has 5 t-shirts(cheap packs)/5 sweatshirts (£2 ASDA) and 5 bottoms (all hand me downs) - it was the best decision ever a whole weeks worth and and saves loads with not keep putting the WM/TD on.

    Now I really must go to bed!
