Morning ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ to everyone :-D

A very windy morning here today, my cat Sid is goping balistic! he loves windy weather, he is chasing leaves around the garden as they fall off the tree, its hysterical to watch, he is such a time waster but I don't mind.

I am no where near ready for Christmas, I do have a large order to put in for grocery shopping shortly online, just hope OH doesn't moan that I've spent too much :-0
The trouble is, everything has become so expensive, I think we will have to draw our horns in on the food this year and not be extravagant like we usually are.


Have a wonderful day all of you.
Dolly XX ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ bye bye

Hello all

very hot today with more of the same forecast for the next few days together with strong winds. I hate oz summers but at least we are not experiencing the storms that are happening in the Eastern States.

Asked for a quote on having some electrical work done at home, including the fitting of a Residual Current detector. We already have one fitted but now the legislation has changed requiring two to be fitted.

As with our luck there is no room on the current meter board to have the second one fitted, therefore require a whole board. $1644.00 to have the work done which also includes two smoke detectors being installed.

Luckily I received a small payout from a UK superannuation scheme which I had forgotten about until a few years ago. It was only earlier this year that we had to spend $1500.00 on a new hot water heater :-|

I am so looking forward to our holiday next February

Be very careful, Emma, people have been mugged for their fottwwear!! ;-)

Hello everyone, I won't stay long as I don't want to spread my germs. I am having to check my PC as hubby has got me a new one and have to check everything has been transfered to it, before he clears the old one of all my info.
I have got the lurgy, a chest infection and a stinking head cold! I can't stop coughing and sneezing, so tons of tissues and asthma puffers, must admit my asthma is worse, but I will survive lol.
I hope you all have a fab weekend, I will come and chat once I feel a bit better.

Hi all.

Not been adding much these days as things are slow,sometimes GR taking too long and other times it's this old thing lol.
This is a desktop butI'm getting a laptop soon.spent hours looking for a desk that is suitable.Waiting on delivery of one any day. Wanted one on casters as it site infront of a cupboard and also wanted one with a doors....to hide all my clutter lol.

How are you all?
Hope the twins are better now.I know of a few babies children who have been taken in with Bronchiolitis in recent years. We never heard of so much years ago....did we?

We have some snow not much and I hope it stays that way.
