Hurrah Nicos’ other half!!

My thoughts exactly Jay!
When he phoned me to say he was on his way home with all the money , the first thing I asked him was if he still had all his front teeth!

I guess that wish I made on seeing that shooting star I saw last night worked!

[Snadger]

Morning all

Glad you got a result with money owed Nicos! Have you got all the wood you need for now then? At a better price I bet!

Taxed my camper today. Was going to stop up to midnight last night to get my moneys worth but from this morning I can get it off the drive (legally) and work on it on the road in front of my house. The road has less of an incline than the drive so the sliding door won't keep banging shut on me. Still not sure whether I am going to make a rock n roll bed or not? As its a 'Camper for one '(and dog) I need to do some measuring to make best use of the limited space.
Anyway, onward and upward!
My eldest Son is moving house tomorrow so I have been seconded to assemble some flat pack furniture. That should be fun (NOT) but he has big strong brawny mates to help with the lifting.
I must confess to being a bit jealous of his new home, in particular the large bi-fold doors from the garden to the kitchen
Went to Aldi to get curtains and Aubretia advertised in there leaflet yesterday to find they had neither. Went to B&M next and managed to get a similar set of curtains for French Windows cheaper than was advertised at Aldi!

TTFN

I love making up flatpack Snadge…Shall I come over and do it and you come over here and help shovel rat sh!t and fibreglass?

We have a pull out slatted bed in the camper with a 15cm memory foam gel cool mattress ( for those heatwave nights we get over here!)
I’ll try and find a piccie of our slatted bed.
With a bit of tweaking it might give you more space during the day and a bigger bed at night - I’ve seen piccies of a similar thing, but with the base on hinges so it lifts up for easy access for storage underneath.

Morning all. I need new curtains too. The last straw for my lounge curtains was when "somebody" was scraping all the crispy bits off a dish at the table (next to the window) and somehow sent a glass of red wine into orbit.
How can it be October already?
Care home visiting again later this morning, birthday present (90th) all wrapped up ready.
After yesterday's atrocious weather the sun is shining through the clouds this morning but it is still cold and the heating is on. Maybe a trip to the allotment this afternoon.

Morning and welcome back Bramble.

Its good you got your money Nicos wonder how many others this has happened to?

Well, I say that but it’s my pillows that I miss the most when I’m away…I’ve got them just as scrunchy and as puffy as I like them.
Do other people miss their own pillows or is it the mattress you miss more?

Mines the pillow as well, I like an almost flat one so usually I resort to using a folded towel.

Enjoy your day.

Morning all,

Busy weekend ahead, need to get the garden ready for the rubbish weather ahead!

Happy Friday all!

[Snoop Puss]

Morning all.

Congrats, Snadger and Nicos and her OH.

In a right rush this morning. Off to the hospital yet again. Nothing urgent and I don't expect anything to come of it. Very boring, but they're looking after me.

Have a great day this, everyone. The smiles went rushing off after the dogs and Frankie with Mr Snoop on their walk and say they'll head off from their most northerly point.

[bramble]

Morning all.
The sun is shining and its bright and breezy but just 10degs.
The dahlias are still in full flower but there are tons of dead heads to be removed.
I started my onion setts in modules before I went away and they have made a good bit of growth.
Unpacking and laundry are the order of the day.
My daughter and g daughter are calling this after noon so I probably wont get to the garden today.

Nicos, your camper is shaping up really well.
Glad to hear your OH got your money back for the firewood
Have a good day all.
