... not smoking for a whole month now.

Having lunch with a giraffe.

This conversation prompted me into sorting out my e-bike for winter. I've brought home the most expensive part - the battery. It would cost in the region of £300 pounds to replace. I paid £597 for the bike complete. I have it insured all risks on our home policy. Null and void if I leave it in one t...

There was something on tv about this not so long ago. The fact that there has been an incident reported is enough to affect your premium - even if it's a no blame incident. That's why I was recently keen to settle without involving any insurance company. We were bitten by that bug many years ago. We...

Try Aviva for a multicar quote. We saved £200 this year.

Chest infection? Which one was that? I had 2 within 4 months ( Oct. ish 12 and Feb 13) There was one really bad one before that but I cant be precise as to that date. Three times I've had the cocktail of inhalors, anti-biotics and steroids now.Each time I was really ill for around 2 weeks. Every tim...

Still not smoking. Still don't want to smoke cigarettes. :shock: That's one whole week at 5.30pm tomorrow. Do you know anyone who has struggled to give up ? I thought this thing was too good to be true so I've been and visited the "stop smoking nurse" to check this out safety wise. I was beginning t...

Good news Eirian. I hope all goes well.

Two gays 7 hours now.

.... feeling rather proud of myself! Today is the first day I have managed to be cigarette free in more years than I care to remember. I think I have finally found the answer. A vaporizer. Daughter bought one 3 weeks ago in Spain and hasn't wanted or touched a cig since. My friend bought one 2 weeks...

my car is new enough to still be under warranty Mine is only just a year old too but the guy was happy for it to go to a garage of my choice. Looking for the silver cloud, at least neither Colin or I put the first dent in it. :lol: :lol: No arguments over that one. If I'd been in the old tatty one ...

What I can'tt figure out is if this relates to cycle training or getting hit in a car park while (presumably) not moving :lol: I wasn't even in the car at the time when it got bashed, I was in the shop the fella that hit it had just left. I dont think he should be driving. He asked if I'd settle pr...

It is a Samsung Galaxy. Good luck with that Zoe. Mine is in Oranges repair centre somewhere and has been for the last 3 weeks. Its only 6 months old. Its dialled 999 twice while I was in the middle of calls and turns itself off at will. Anyway..... The hole you plug your charger into is the same ho...

Hope you all had a really lovely time.

Sounds like the nasty fairy got you too. :( OH has been nice and blagged a lift back to nearly home to go and collect the post that I should have been collecting on Friday. The post will contain details of whatever I have to do and wherever I have to go and however much I will have to pay to go on a...

Its getting worse by the hour. This one does and doesn't involve me. My daughter and grandson have just jumped on a plane to Cork because Dan's other grandad is on life support and they plan to switch it off tomorrow evening if he doesn't respond before then. Please whoever you are just half a bucke...

Well, I'm not meant to get there and its definite now. Some silly B reversed into my car in a car park that had about 3 cars in it. I dont know how this guy managed it to be honest. Its about to go to the garage to get straightened.

Have fun folks.

I wont make it before Saturday lunchtime at best. A friend died this afternoon. I've Pm'd you all.

Lynn, if you get messsage alerts I've sent you one, and on facebook too.

Lat: I've been trying to paste you a link to show how these are made but its not happening.. Google any one these and look for a demo. :lol: :lol: The tradition of mat making isn’t unique to the North East but the terms hooky and proggy are. They are also known as clippy mats, proddy, cleekie, cloot...

Doesn't have to be xmas themed. This isn't for the craft and crumpet compo. This is for Lynn and stock long term. She is thinking along the lines of taking a room in this place as opposed to a stall-long term. She is also thinking that she may venture into her own craft cafe in a different area. Bun...
