Whoops! Hope the animals in the shed won't starve, or you will have to break a window and get in that way. Mind you, it might be a good excuse not to cook/clean/iron while the work is going on - lol And there was I giving dire warnings about wheelie bins!

My goodness Auntie - you are a glutton for punishment. All that forbidden word! Hope for your sake none of the arachnids were of the lethal variety.

Anyone been on A* today? My cursor got stuck on a transcription page and I couldn't get to the browser tabs at all, at all. OH had to shut down FireFox and now I'm a bit nervous about going back on it again.

Oh, and have you noticed the dotted triangle at the bottom right of the 'reply' box on here? You can use it to increase the size of the box. Ever so handy.

Backwards messages, upside down messages, little triangles in reply boxes that I can't see, lol!!

Definitely think some of us should be in the padded cell!! Hope it's comfy in there!

AND those horrible eight legged creatures!! No sympathy whatsoever for them having breathing difficulties in the vacuum!! Who was brave enough to mention them in the first place! Oooh, my right foot is trembling at the thought!! It just hates recluse spiders lol!

Have a triangle - its a very pale grey isosceles shaped. OH upgraded the Browser, so perhaps why it's invisible.

Ooh thank you DET! Still don't have one on my reply box! Am using IE so maybe that makes a difference.

Hmm, I don't have a triangle either, maybe you've been promoted DET and they've given you a badge.

I always read the threads from bottom to top because I have last post first.

Sounds like the workmen are in a hurry to get your work done Maz, the sooner they start........... the sooner they finish.


Edit: I use Firefox.......... I want a triangle.

Well that's one room finished. Thank goodness. I am now looking at the bathroom, in particular the cupboard. Anyone want any smelly stuff, still in its original packaging, about 1980s vintage. Thought not.
Oh well that'll be the evenings entertainment.

This is discrimination. I do not have any triangles, acute, isoseles, obtuse, or equilateral. I am using IE as well. Perhaps triangles are confined to the northern hemisphere.

Maz . why do you have scaffolding?? I confess I have neglected to read the past Chronicles with any diligence. I am glad you did not need the wheelie bin between your legs, but scaffolding sounds like major building works. Are we borrowing the builders for Nut Lodge renovations??

Off to work. Catch you later. Signed onto the A place last night. Lovely discount thank you D.

Maz, just go out and stay out as long as you can each day, best not to think of the mess. Let your eyes glaze over it for a while.

Have a good day everyone.

I'll be off out as soon as son goes to the centre.

Morning all.

Hope you are coping with the renos Maz. It seems to get worse before it gets better!

Hm - bathroom cupboards. Seems such a shame to chuck all those 'smellies' so kindly donated at special times of the year. But if they are gathering dust, or that 'wrinkle' cream no longer works, time for the bin!

We are suppose to be going out to day as the NT places are awaking from their winter slumber. We bought cheap Walking Boots OH wants to try out. Mine hurt on one ankle....so frustrating!

Well, you've all deserted the thread and Aunty will be in a deep sleep!!

It's been a lovely day here again, but going to change overnight. Think there will be some mist later and heavy rain forecast for tomorrow. Oh joy!!

Well, I've been a busy girl today setting up a leaving presentation for one of my two bosses! His last day is on Thursday, but one of the directors couldn't be there, so have had it today.

Because of some changes they have taken on two managers to replace him, so I will now have three managers all breathing down my neck. I am going to have a tough time over the next few weeks until they are settled in and have completed all their induction. Is it time to retire yet lol!!

Evening YG. Whose been a busy girl then? LOL Hope the outgoing person appreciated all your hard work. And you are sure to soon whip the new-comers into shape. If you enjoy working (usually) then carry on...or perhaps you could go part time?

There is only thee and me......2 folk are off guiding, Maz has locked her comp up away from the dust, Pauline is out, and the other 2 are otherwise engaged. Soon there will only be thee, as I'm going to start dinner soon - lol
