    Not a bad start. I'm going to go and write the blurb for my website now as DH has been asking for it for months. I need to get it done because a potential client has phoned up and wants my leaflet sending to her and that has the website address on which isn't up and running. Oops! :rotfl: xx

    Havin a cuppa and then i'll go and lift hubby, i'll get the rest done later. Found out that i'll going to a castle to receive the laptop and we're getting lunch sounds very posh but the letter say's informal but i think i better dress up for it.

    Right i'm away, see you all later.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    I know SSL, its really annoying when they try and mislead people like that. However you were right the man in my avatar, Richie Sambora wasnt there. He was in rehab following his divorce and the death of his father.

    OMG!! How awful!! Is he sober now? Is he touring with them?

    Hi all

    Well 20 items listed in turbo lister, including about 4 mixed lots. Still got mess dress, 2 motorbike helmets, DD1's ice skates (never worn:eek: ), wedding dress and a basket of DD2's stuff to sort and list! Not to mention My stuff that is in the top of the wardrobe taking up valuable hoarding space lol.:rotfl:

    Oh god, what am i letting myself in for! I hope it all sells! If it all goes and i get what i'm asking for the buy it now stuff, then i might just be able to pay off DH's store card:mad: :mad: :mad: or my overdraft :mad: (maybe both if I get really lucky!) Would settle for the overdraft and half of the store card ... don't wanna sound too greedy lol.:rotfl:

    Right, back to the photographing and listing, determined that it is all on before DH comes home from work, still got loads to do!

    See you all later!

    HHC update - got the steamer out and made a start on the tiles in the bathroom, they are large tiles but look like mosaic (what a carp description) - anyway there is a lot of grout/'fake' grout to do. Just waiting for OH to call (hopefully) then will go back to it.

    Mudbath - you made a good dent to your list, ETA you too Dusty and loved your comment re the chocolate beetles, not what I expected from you :rotfl: :rotfl:
    Don't put it down, put it away - thanks Valli

    Thank you to all who post competitions & help the smooth running of the comps board

    Yes he's touring with them. I saw them at the O2 just after he was out of rehab, he was fine. Think he just had a lot going on and all got a bit much. Happens to the best of us:o
