    Just visited my lovely aunt, her care home is top notch. lovely staff excellent carers. We all sat in the garden and enjoyed the singing of a brilliant lady doing all the right songs to sing along too and I was unbeaten at the giant connect four.

    It was just hugely comforting to see Aunt so cared for and now close for relatives to be able to visit her frequently.

    A great day.

    Had an amazing holiday.. Got to talk privately with the Captain of the ship we were on and he thought I was Danish hehehe. If you ever get a chance to go to Maderia, go to Funchal at night. That view took my breath away! Have a week of work so just going to chill, catch up on my studies and heading to Holland on Wednesday
    Super Mod

    Darn solicitor is demanding £750, that makes a total of 3 grand so far, all to extend the land lease back to 125 years, its all a con.. thou it will cost a total of 10 grand by the end it does add 30 grand to the value of my property if I sell.

    Refurbe is looking great, new galley kitchen is almost complete and the new windows are lush.

    Still need to repair the front door from when upstairs tools had it kicked in my the firemen because "they thought I was dead" Id left for here but they didnt hear my telly for TWO days after never worrying about me for 5 years or even seeing me or speaking to me despite me posting a contact number thru there letter box a while back when they leaked water into my flat and never paid for the damage.

    It cost me £200 initially from a locksmith company the firemen used to secure the flat after they kicked the door in, I didnt ask for any of it but paid as I didnt want to appear on wont pay well take it away.. plus it was nt the firemens fault that the people above are cretins.

    Went looking for a new bed today, found one but thats £700 quid gone, the head board alone was £200.

    I think I need to win the lotto.

    Maybe you should take a leaf from my book and buy "pre-loved" furniture from eBay and Gumtree.

    I've recently found some great bargains for my new home, including a reclining chair, some beautiful quality wooden folding chairs (because there's no room in my tiny house for enough seating for when my whole family visit), a TV stand, a hat stand (which I got for free!), and a cot, desk and trike for my little granddaughter. I'm really pleased with my bargains!

    I agree, it's so much more attractive than "second hand".

    Nor me! It's great for hanging coats and bags from though.

    Fun fun fun just spent £800 on two new glasses

    Ah well they both have bendy frames and the everyday ones auto tint, but for that price they should also clean the house and make nice cups of tea.

    I always love going to the optician as they get all excited when they look in my eyes alas its because most have never seen Bests before, but for me there is nothing best abaut it.

    You've been spending too much money again.

    Yeah Dazzle tell me about it, money is pouring out of me

    There our worse things than Bests out there for eyes, wet maculars would be the worst in my books, it will take your sight if not treated promptly mine just destroys my central vision slowly over years and years, but its just typical that my nice sis has it too but the evil one dosent.... on the positive none of the grand children have it so fingers crossed it ended here, especially now they hopefully can screen for it and treat with gene therapy.

    Wow Im droning on again
