Sounds like you have things under control. I hope there will be no last minute panics and your last 2 weeks are peaceful.

Fingers crossed for the car too.



LOL, you know Nicky, I hate that bathroom!! Most of the decor in our house was done by the people before us who were an older couple. That bathroom was so dismal we had to have extra lights fitted. We didn't bother to redecorate as we were going to move a wall and so we were waiting until then - of course we never did it. All the furniture came from our last house and we never got round to replacing it either...

Gazclaire's house is so clean and modern. One day I will have a house like that!! (Probably after OH and DD move out.)
That's funny about the bathroom. I thought it looked really good. I want a penthouse apartment overlooking the sea with just me and Paul in (if he behaves himself that is).

Same here, all we talk about is house selling and stopping business etc. where is all the fun.

LOl, you lot are mad. (Why state the obvious??)

We don't have a milkman - road too steep for a milk float or something... could also be to do with the fact that none of us like milk....

I can just see Hayles in her skimpy nightie on the doorstep, batting her eyelids at the milky..

It does look fab, seriously, does your dining room table really do that?

LOL, you are in a good spot then wind wise!

Unfortunately Fly Away, he won't. He wants to do it solo. I am not allowing him to work me up, or upset me regards the flight, because if you listen to him, in 15 days time, our lives are very likely to end. I know I sound horrible, but the old phrase is true, you can lead a horse to water...

Sounds like you have things under control. I hope there will be no last minute panics and your last 2 weeks are peaceful.

Just added more the the list ...but simple things, thankfully.

Fingers crossed for the car too.

Thanks, glad you are feeling better.

Getting to you as well, Ic? Know how you feel.


I've got a black cloud over my head at the moment. It started yesterday and I can't shift it. No-one to talk to about it apart from you lot. *sigh*

I really thought the guys on Saturday were the ones, and I allowed myself to get my hopes. I won't be doing that again in a hurry.(
More hugs coming your way J.
