OCTOBER 2010
1st October 2010 - White Rabbits everyone!
Well what a flippin day to be sure. If it can go wrong it has gone wrong and everyone is very out of sorts.
For a start we have had weather which is not far below a hurricane with terrifically high winds and more rain than is good for a tiny cat who wants to go into the garden. So you can imagine the little thundercloud on four legs which we have suffered today!
I got everything from eBay ready to go and then there was an important phone call so it will all have to go to the post office tomorrow and that takes time out of Saturday before I have even woken up! The M25 is working is anti-magic so I was late for the Doctor's appointment and when I came out there was no sign of Chaos.
I therefore dragged myself round to the Supermarket car park, rain was tipping from the skies and I was exhausted and in pain and I bet you guessed it. He was not there and he was not answering his mobile. I parked myself on a chair inside the store and waited, and waited . . .
When I had recovered I had no option but to drag myself back to the Surgery and lo and behold, a Vision! Yup, there was Chaos waiting in the wrong place. Boy, if looks could kill I would have fried him!
I was supposed to be grocery shopping but I called it a day and we had pie and chips from the local shop and stayed indoors. There have been several bad accidents in the vicinity this evening so I think we made the right choice there.
I have just welcomed What?Cash into the family fold and am going to set up the cross-site Hallowe'en contest so it is all go here!
2nd October 2010
Well, today has been another really strange day! We had brilliant summer all morning then things deteriorated and we had mid winter since the afternoon. The wind is howling and it really is much better to be inside.
i had to brave the shops during day time. Ye Gods! Never again. My eye problem which gives me double vision led to my balance completely going as hordes of children, dozens of them in the image I had of them, blurred into me and around me. The ones with trolleys of their own were absolutely lethal!
All the eBay stuff has gone and as far as I am concerned the world can stay outside and I am staying inside all weekend.
What?Cash has formally joined the Foxy Lady sites family so that will be really nice for everyone. The Halloween game will start next week and everyone will be hunting over eight sites this time.
3rd October 2010
A sort of everything and nothing day, if you ask "what have you done" the answer is "very little, I did not get online until 7pm" but a lot of progress has been made in that we got Nemo's tank cleaned and moved Jaws and Troilus into it. It is a bigger tank and Jaws is already merrily gravel piling. Later on we may get some neons or something smaller and set up the tropical tank again but for the present, with so much else to do we have settled on just the one tank. We may get another couple of cold water fish though, it just depends how long Chaos can keep me out of Pets at Home, giggle.
Kitten Cat is delighted at this new event because the tank is lower and she can get a much more detailed look at the fish. Since she has a water phobia they are quite safe, but there is a safety lid in place at all times, just to be absolutely certain!
Kitten Cat is currently cowering behind my arm chair because she is absolutely terrified of the hoover, a hangover from her very bad early start in life.
I generally do a lot of house keeping of files and set up the new quiz at the weekend but this week it is going to be a Monday start at the earliest.
The shop needs a few banners but is otherwise fully functional now and can be accessed via the shop link on this site.
4th October 2010
At risk of sounding like the weather girl, there is no change here and we still have howling gales. They have a howling Gail on Coronation Street and she doesn't show any sign of shutting up either, sadly.
I have what feels like half a tonne of laid back cat on my lap so am forced to type this one handed whilst supporting the keyboard in the other . . .
Jaws and Troilus are very happy in their new home but Kitten Cat is still searching for Nemo. She does enjoy fish watching though.
The results of the Autumn Leaves contest go out today and I will give people a couple of days to see where the leaves were before finally sweeping them away ready for the Hallowe'en contest which will go out over eight sites.
I finally started my study today and I feel way in above my head, and out of practice too. I have done the sensible thing and read and taken notes which will be my bed time reading for the next few weeks and tomorrow I shall try my first interactive tasks. Hopefully that will end the pre study panic attack and I can enjoy this very interesting course in Web Applications.
5th October 2010
Well a lively and unplanned start to the morning, being woken at 8 o'clock sharp by a little man who wanted to read the electricity meter. Naturally, since I was not the last person to handle the keys, there was a mini treasure hunt to find those, while Web Pages Dust Bunny offered to open the cupboard door using a screwdriver. Thanks, but no thanks, there is a lock for a reason . . .
Following swiftly on the heels of this broohahah and before I had had a restorative cup of tea, Web Pages Dust Bunny found that his hoover gave up the ghost but that was easy - just hand over mine and a good excuse not to hoover, hee hee.
Kitten Cat has found that she can climb the gate and get into the front garden, which I really did not want to happen due to traffic close to that garden, but she is a cat and a disobedient cat at that. She skulked to the back garden but it was reported that she returned as soon as my back was turned, little horror.
Hopefully the mystery of photographing metallic objects will be solved today and more items will go onto the shop. There is a link to the shop on all Foxy Lady Sites and on the shop link on this site.
The hallowe'en contest will be up by the weekend and Members only may win advertising prizes, but the image will appear on publicly accessible pages of all sites, so you can all have fun finding the images.
6th October 2010
The appalling weather just goes on and on and I am going to have to use that tumble drier to deal with the back log of wet laundry.
I have visited the opticians and spent two hours undergoing tests with the result that I shall now have three pairs of spectacles. One for reading, one for the computer and one for long distance. Brill huh?
I am very lucky to have access to such a good optician, I know that, but you know I lose spectacles when I have just the two pairs plus prescription sunglasses. The potential for loss with 3 sets is infinite.
I have chosen different styles of frame to give me a chance of not playing multiple choice when changing spectacles for different purposes and we shall see how I get on.
The combination of mid and long range double vision plus a leg with a mind of its own multiplied by the cat trip events is a huge explanation for the falls. I am sure that my dream of a cream coloured carpet is now just that unless I use a hostess tray, spills are now so frequent.
Online there are no spills, a few slip ups in the coding maybe but no falls either, so this is the ideal environment for me.
Now that I have got over the initial panic attack on returning to study has died down now and I have managed to complete the first weeks' work, just a bit of re reading and re studying and hopefully next week will be easier since this week all the new concepts were introduced which boggled my blonde old brain. I have done my very first css script - all four lines of it -and wonder how I am going to remember all that lot in ten weeks when the html course I did was 30 weeks . . .
We have cracked the photography for shiny items now so I can put them on the shop, if the steady stream of visitors dies down. It is Murphy's Law that whenever one becomes busy one attracts visitors like a magnet and they are all people one loves to see.
7th October 2010
Today is a very important day to Marjorydaw since she has been married to her beloved Mr Marjorydaw for more than 40 years and today is their anniversary. I just sent them a text because they have sneaked off to celebrate in peace - young love, aaaaahhhhh!
I would like to sneak off somewhere with my computer and hid so that I can get on, giggle. Problem is that when I am sitting here everyone thinks it is like playing games on the computer and that I can constantly heave myself up and down to make drinks, eats, find things etc etc. Strange though how when they really ARE playing computer games there is a "sssshhhh" and they don't even break their fixed stare at the screen . . .
An on line shop doesn't have the visible maintenance requirements of a land one and also there is not the inherent risk of actually being asked to DO something whilst you visit, so I lose out on that front also.
My new "student" status has opened up a new forum for me and a lot of the other mature students (LOVE that term, I've never been mature in my life, giggle) commiserate with each other as to how very hard it is to get the space to study, especially when the study is on line and therefore "playing with the computer". So it is not just my lot who are unable to grasp the concentration required on here.
8th October 2010
What a flippin day! Rain, rain and more rain and one soggy, disgruntled cat putting paw print autographs on everything.
Chaos moved everything around supposedly giving me more room but actually what has happened is that the light beside me has been blocked by the computer tower and printer and there is no space to put my books and pens, hence the same Kitten Cat who is putting her autograph everywhere is gaily knocked books off the edge of the armchair. On balance she is having a whale of a time today.
As you will see, if I ever get left in peace for long enough to get the details onto this page, the Halloween Ghost Hunt is now underway and will last for the whole of October.
I have more items to go onto the shop page and some site decorating to do.
9th October 2010
Whoo! What a hectic day today. Don't want too many more of those if I am going to get on and that is for sure. I is a people magnet and no mistake!
I am also in extremely bad books with Kitten Cat who will not come near me at the moment because I bought some pills which make sure she does not have any little "lodgers" since a spray traumatises her. I don't know what happened to her before Chaos and Honey rescued her but there are some thins which terrify her out of all proportion and spraying is near the top of the list. You only need one pill. Save the "give a cat a pill" jokes, in real life it just is not funny. She has pigged out on treats today and spat out the pill every time so I have tried it crushed in milk and I think she got some. She is highly unamused though.
I got a huge survey through the post and it took an enormous amount of time so I hope it is worth the 200 points and I get something rather special from the gift catalogue.
The Hallowe'en game is in full swing now and seems to be popular, and all the sites are up to date so I suppose the next coach load of Gremlins is just around the next corner.
Apparently there has been a rush to get married tomorrow, 10.10.10, but it is not actually a very auspicious day, according to numerlology. I don't know much about numerology, I just read about it for fun, but 10.10.10 does not get a very good write up at all. If you want to have a look here is the link Numerology.com
10th October 2010
So far not too bad a day for an auspicious one. I read in the news that one little boy from Leicester was born at 10 o clock on the 10th of the 10th so he has four 10s today.
I have been working flat out on the sites and the winners page is now on all member areas so everyone can see who has won and what.
Yesterday was, as ever, bedlam, so I have to read some of the book associated with my course this evening in order to proceed there.
I made the most amazing beef stew with dumplings and by the time I had fed everyone I did not get seconds, oh my what an oversight. Next time serve and hide a second dish, definitely.
We have another relative who has been rushed into hospital and may have to make a cross country dash, so if I vanish for a day that is what is occurring, nothing for you to worry about, but obviously an anxious time here.
On a more upbeat note, thank you for all those cat and pill tips. I think I need them. I decided to try the crushed pill in milk ploy and she neatly upended the saucer, side stepping the resultant mess. Wish I had that on film as it is definitely one for You Tube!
11th October 2010
Well, we survived the 10 10 10 but today is not much better. They say it is difficult to get a camel through the eye of the needle - well try contacting the British Consulate - it makes the camel look easy peasy!
I had a cute coupon today though. It if for a whole pound off of the Gourmet a la Carte range and it is so cute, it is like a gold lettered invitation! The "cat" authoring the text also offers the chance to win a portrait of my own Kitten Cat but I am not entering because I have my own artist in the family so am leaving that one for somebody who has no artist.
I finally managed to read the chapters of the study book and thankfully a lot of the information is already material I currently utilise so I can concentrate on all the new stuff in on line activities. However, I have PAL and Marjorydaw winging their way here as I type so I reckon the study will have to wait.
12th October 2010
We are freeeeeeein here. Kitten Cat hurt her leg today but insisted on the window staying open and after a rest she was outside again. So we are even colder and counting the minutes until we can call her in for the night and close the window.
Since I am adding lots of items to the shop there is not really much to report apart from lots of typing going on. I am doing my Christmas shopping at the same time as I am putting items on. If they are suitable for my own Christmas plans they are being put aside, not for sale, giggle.
13th October 2010
I had a real Blonde moment extraordinaire last night. My keyboard stopped working and of course the Anglo Saxoning got worse and worse as measure after measure failed to resolve the issue. After about half an hour Chaos said "which keyboard are you using . . ."
Blush. There was my keyboard on the floor and I was using Chaos's keyboard. There was all sort of rubbish in the middle of his document from my failed key strokes. Fortunately we both saw the funny side. Even by my standards that was a huge muck up!
Today I found lots of little china dwarves so if they have proved photogenic they will be on the shop by tomorrow, else we shall have to give them the full Studio treatment.
We have also lost an anxious hour tonight trying to find Kitten Cat who failed to come home. When we did finally spot her she refused to come in so we have frozen until she did tootle in. She almost got flattened in the stampede to close the window before she escaped again. I will not leave her without a means to get in here quickly, but honestly, I can not feel my toes at all, it is so cold.
I need a new fridge but at this rate the milk and bacon will keep quite cold enogh in the bedroom!
14th and 15th October 2010 More fun and games (not!) yesterday. We have a relative in hospital so I was looking at the web site of a local florist and the wretched site had a trojan which it took all night to vanquish.
The Florist is known to me, since my family have used their shop for generations, myself since 1977, so I sent a little mail to let him know there was a problem. Very annoying though because we now have to make a trip to town to get the flowers sorted.
Naturally all my site work is delayed but worse I am behind with my studies!
Kitten Cat continues her love affair with the great outdoors and we are freezing. Not sure what to do about this but we can't go on freezing.
I am making a few more pay outs on my sites this week so that is one way to be popular. If you are a member perhaps it will be you!
16th October 2010
Welcome to Dartford on Ice. There may not be any snow but I tell you it is arctic here today. Inside is cold enough to freeze your breath.
Everyone seems to have some sort of virus today, coughs, sneezes, the lot, and kitten Cat does not want to catch any of it!
I just picked up a job lot of vintage stuff on eBay and there is one particular lapel pin which took my eye, just hope it is in the package which arrives! The rest of them will be on the vintage shop which will be up and running next year, once all the Foxy Lady Shop items are in situ.
It is all happening at long last so keep reading, keep buying and you never know, I might even get a new logo!
17th October 2010
Well a slow start to the day because my legs have gone on strike. They did not want to move at all and gradually I have got mobile. You can imagine everything has taken so much longer to do. However, I am walking and my hands are working for typing but grip is a bit iffy, so all is well with my on line world.
Between Karen at GossipEmails and Tony of TGB Enterprise I have managed to change the colours and design on my timer bars, something I have been trying to do for four whole years, and it IS very easy when you know where to find the right bits of files! So an enormous thank you to them.
At least the meal today is easy because I cooked extra potato and vegetables and they have gone in with a bit of mince for a nice big and warming cottage pie, mmmmmm.
18th October 2010
Well we are definitely in mid Winter here and That Darned Cat is crying by the closed window. She has been out, found it too cold, frozen my neck with her paws and is now back on her perch screaming the place down because, rotten, mean, cruuuueeelll Mummy has closed the window. Well, sorry Kitten Cat but we are all freezing here.
Some nice new items are on the shop and i am hoping against hope that Chaos will finish the banners today so that I can start to publicise it a little more widely.
The television is on its way out, it too 20 minutes to get the thing to actually show me a picture, so it looks as if the reserve TV will be in place later this evening and somebody will have a trip to the tip tomorrow.
 Three hours later I am returning to finish this entry. Someone wants to watch the Lord of the Rings Trilogy but Someone can't find the DVD remote. Now quite why this should have involved myself in the search since I have never had the said remote in my hot little hands for long enough even to fathom out how to work the DVD player I do not know but we have had a game of wreck the room until we found the darned thing.
I want a hole drilled through the casing, a length of chain put through and the remote attached to the TV table!
I have also totally forgotten the little pearls of wisdom which would have tripped off my fingers had this interruption not occurred, sigh.
Whilst we were wrecking this room Little Lady was making a lovely mess in her room, since we have been forced to buy the perfume variety of bathroom tissue and she goes absolutely dingbat for the stuff. There are little bits of tissue absolutely everywhere!
19th October 2010
Well another freezing day - we went down to minus 2 degrees in the night, and the livestock is not happy because after she had been outside for one minute she came back soaked and cold, naturally leaping straight for the comfort of the sofa (grrrr) and then created merry hell because the window was promptly closed.
She will reach new heights of discontent the next time she goes out because she will find the bedroom door closed until I can wipe her paws to avoid a repeat of the sofa problem. Not looking forward to that!
Thank you for your kind suggestions regarding my bathroom paper shredding rosella bird problem. No, she could not be a cheap paper shredder because if it doesn't taste of vanilla she does not shred it and no, certainly not! there are not enough feathers on a rosella birdie to stuff a duvet. The very idea of it!
I have more or less caught up with the studies, thank goodness, and managed to locate the questions for the assignment, and to my extreme surprise I can answer most of them already so some of this studying must be entering this dumb blonde head at some point. I am going to double check the answers, because I am careful like that and hopefully I shall pass the thing, which is after all the name of the game.
I ordered some software from eBay and to my delight it arrived today, the very next day after it was ordered. Now that is what I call service! Chaos has gleefully pounced upon it and was trying to find fault with it because I do not know about software, and don't really want to at the moment, I have enough to do with coding and design, but he was unable to find much fault, quel dommage and lots of laughter.
The Dust Bunnies are messing about with the car today and the acquisition of a buggy for me has come to the top of the Agenda - so that I can ferry cups of tea up to the garage! Well, I don't really care what reason they have, if I get my mobility scooter that much quicker so be it, but I am also buying a flask so that when, and only when, I have my buggy I can send them up there with a flask of tea, heh heh.
Oh yes, those of you who read this and know You-Know-Who keep schtum. I want that buggy, giggle!
20th October 2010
Another freezing day of window wars whereby my life is being made an absolute misery if the window is closed but Kitten Cat does not actually want to go outside. She practically decapitated a dwarf I was photographing then managed somehow to kick the board it was standing on into the sink (yes, draining board is the very best light at the moment for photos!
Marjorydaw is coming round this evening for another brain storming session so I am trying to get ahead and Kitten Cat is not helping one little bit. She knows it too, and that is what is so annoying.
Chaos managed to drop his phone into some water, all by himself, and he is chuntering away about having to reset the clock etc. I am keeping quiet . . .
Shhhhh I am NOT laughing, I really am not . . . well, not much anyways!
21st October 2010
We have been up half the night for a medical emergency and for once I was not the emergency, but I am pretty exhausted today.
Not a lot is being done off line because I can't walk in a straight line and my leg appears to have a mind of its own, and I keep having mini sleeps. Therefore today is not a day to do anything strenuous or which requires brain power.
I am back after a long and girly and fun visit from Marjorydaw which restored my equilibrium. I had made a meal but everyone vanished as ever so it had to be reheated in the microwave. The sound of intense Anglo Saxoning from the kitchen made Marjorydaw smile because she knew exactly what had occurred. She has the same china as I have except she has radiant red and I have the white. The plates are too large to fit into the microwave and allow the turntable to rotate. She discovered this ages ago. I discovered it tonight.
My carefully presented meals had to be put onto smaller plates then re-arranged on the larger ones. Boy! What a task! At least the meal was delish!
22nd October 2010
Today would have been the birthday of my best friend, she passed at a very young age and it is mind blowing to think that she would have been 58 today. Time certainly marches on.
It has been a hectic day not helped by the fact that I had one of my "coma" crashes and even the best efforts of Kitten Cat could not wake me, nor being shaken by the two leggeds. So they just had to wait until I decided to wake up.
We also had to make a trip to our MP today which was a late appointment, fortunately, but it was a nightmare to get there. The surgery is in the middle of a shopping centre and there are no mobility scooters and we are lucky I managed it without collapsing, although my hip has now locked due to the effort. We did get there though and that was the important thing.
The mobility scooter has now moved to the top of the agenda. It really was a nightmare, and Chaos is serious worried that one day he will have to piggy back me out of somewhere and that is not something he wants appearing on U Tube. That goes double for me!
We are expecting visitors tomorrow also, so here I am tip tapping away much to Kitten Cat's disgust. She was already annoyed because her outside time had been curtailed by our trip out. I do not leave her outside because she really is a gentle critter and I want to be around in case she gets into difficulties and of course the window can not be left open when I am not here. If she could speak she would be on to the RSPCA to complain about the window closure though.
We have a beautiful full moon here tonight and I would have liked to go for a drive because I love the countryside in that type of light, maybe next full moon.
The local ASDA wee absolutely useless tonight, being out of stock of most items that were required because they were filling shelves with all their Christmas stock. Luckily we managed to get all that is required for the curry which I have promised will be made tomorrow, and then we can worry about the store cupboard after that.
So that was my day. You just have to have had more fun!
23rd October 2010
Well a couple of hours ago I wrote an entry here and the computer went kaput because of an electricity power wobble and I lost the lot, so the trend from yesterday is alive and well. Also we have had the most awful wet and cold day so I have little Sulky Sox moping on my lap and making it very difficult to type.
Portland has come up to see us and I made the promised curry, which went down very well and now he and Chaos are amicably bickering over a game.
There was a bit of a wobble on WhatCash today since I was waiting for the invoice to pay the hosting but some mails from the previous owner had not arrived at the host so the bills were still going to her and it was a bit of a catastrophe, but all credit to her it was not either of our faults, just a little glitch, but she pulled out all the stops and sorted it.
My mixed pack of odds and ends from eBay arrived today and that is another half a dozen Christmas presents for four quid and even Chaos had to agree I got a terrific deal there.
My very first Corporate Christmas cards also arrived and they are so beautiful I am really made up with them. The advantage with Vistaprint is that you can order as few as ten personalised cards and even a single personalised item such as a pen so you do not need the outlay for 250 which is the minimum order with many firms supplying personalised items. If you have not heard of Vistaprint just click the hyperlink and have a nice browse.
24th and 25th October 2010
Not a day crowned in glory, yesterday. There is a book of questions for multiple choice answers for my first assignment and I wanted to download it because I find it easier to write on a piece of paper then check the multiple choice answers as opposed to going backward and forward between screens. Anyway, my computer took exception to this booklet somehow and the whole thing froze and went into an evening of total inactivity. It took until today to sort that out. Naturally I had Chaos moaning at me about downloads but this is a National institution of education and I have to download information so ya boo sucks and help me out!
I have got the thing printed today and should be able to send in the assignment tomorrow, and the whole game restarts next week when book 2 has to be downloaded.
Chaos has collected my new spectacles and they are not going to stay on the end of my nose for long at the first use because within a couple of minutes I feel nauseous. Apparently it is the new prism which is drawing my eye back to a neutral position to cut down on the double vision, but it takes a bit of getting used to.
I picked a more modern style this time and now wonder whether it suits me, but it is only the distance ones that outsiders will see, so not too much hard done to the street cred, heh heh.
Chaos says I will have no excuse for clashing broomsticks now, sweetie that he is.
Speaking of Sweeties, Kitten Cat brought Chaos her first present. She found a little fuse thing for the computer. I hope she confines her presents to the non animate! Since I am the one who feeds her and he is the one who gets the presents I do wonder about the natural justice of it all but there you go!
The problem with Whatcash has been resolved so all eight sites are once again up and running.
The snail mail problem has not been resolved though. I had a call regarding my non response to a letter which I have not received. Again. So I asked them to complain too, because the Royal Mail may take more notice of a large customer than they do of me. Hope so, Christmas is coming and I don't want my freebies and pressies going astray.
26th October 2010
We have one of those freezing misty days and Window Wars because naturally it is far to cold and damp outside and after allowing a brief foray outside I closed the window immediately upon Kitten Cat's return. So I am baaaaaad!
I finally managed to get that Assignment off so The Course is on track even if it is driving me the other half way to madness.
The battle now is to get all the sites ready in their Hallowe'en dresses and for everyone to finish the Ghost Hunt before the stroke of midnight at Hallowe'en.
27th October 2010
Chaos continues to be rather ill and I am doing my best to shunt him back to the hospital. However, he is proving even more stubborn than Kitten Cat, sigh.
Things have rather come to a standstill in that I can not get out to get another camera and don't really want to order one on line since postal deliveries seem to be rather up the creek at the moment, and also moving items out of the flat and round the flat has come to a full stop whilst Chaos is ill. The paint is scheduled to arrive on Friday and I am hoping that the bathroom will be redecorated over the weekend, but we all live in hope, don't we!
Little Lady has trashed her cage, it was on its last legs anyway and I was looking for another, but she discovered that she can peck off little pieces of the tray and now there is a gaping hole which will destabilise the whole structure. Honestly! Pets! Whoever said they lower stress levels did not have mine!
28th October 2010
Well whatever everyone else has had I have got it now, holiday home to the strolling germ brigade, sigh.
I put plenty of garlic and chilli into the stew and that went down well.
I shall return later, Marjorydaw has arrived and does not know the health risk she is running!
I'm back and Marjorydaw seems to have escaped unscathed. She likes the little witch and cat which is me and Kitten Cat.
She likes the new shoe charms I am putting onto the store later this evening or, more likely, tomorrow morning. I only have a few so they will probably fly. If you collect shoe charms check out the new charms tomorrow, not before because they are not there at the moment.
I shall also put the halloween bits and pieces onto the rest of the sites so that they get a few days airing before I swap them all over again for winter mode.
29th October 2010
Another freezing day and Chaos is too sick to take me shopping so no treats today, sigh. The Bakery on the fleet Estate has unusual sausage rolls, they are in a sort of sweet bread as opposed to pastry, and I really like them.
The main job for today is to finish putting Halloween decorations on the sites and catch up with some of the bits and pieces for the Winners page.
If you are a member of lots of pay to read sites it is worth watching out for the Halloween quizzes. BGPayMail has a first prize of a whole five dollars!
1st November 2010
White Rabbits!
A better 1st of the month than has been the case for most of this year.
The expert came out and declared that the freezer has been manufactured wrongly so the sides of the freezer actually bulge under pressure and the drawers fall. A replacement new freezer is on its way. Beko I love you! After the performance I still endure with that useless washer dryer it is a total relief to have instant remedy once I finally get somebody out here. As to the store (not Beko) Customer Service person, rats to you, suggesting I buy a complete set of new drawers!!!!
The result is in on my assignment and I passed that, so one down and two more to go, and the external assessment. I should be able to test the site I am writing within two weeks and then the fun starts because there is a special site which actually validates the code and if it doesn't validate it I have done something wrong somewhere.
We had no post today, again, and since we are expecting post heaven above knows where it ended up today. I have told our regular Postie that he must not have any more leave but one word from me and he does as he likes, sigh.
The dns has resolved on Zodiac-Ads so if you are a member please log in and we will play catch up.
