Malka, that honey sounds good and I'm sure the odd wing or two won't do you any harm Good luck with it anyway.

I DID leave glasses H.........you were just in too much of a hurry to look for them; they are up on the shelf along with Nippy's cakes! Oh, and yes I do remember trying to drink from a bottle of champagne once - what a flipping waste!! How do those Formula 1 boys do it I wonder? Mind you, they are drenched anyway with the stuff after spraying it around.

Pipes in the bathroom - for months and months there has been and on and off horrible smell in husband's bathroom, and I mean horrible. No amount of cleaning and scrubbing and opening the window wide makes any difference when it is there (and yes, at first I did blame HIM!!). Eventually we realised that a) it was not a sewage sort of scent if you know what I mean, more of a horrible musty damp smell and b) it happens after heavy rain. We found that there is an air brick at ground level right under that bathroom, and also that the pointing around it is rather worse for wear. So in our case I don't think that it is leaking pipes, but may be water seeping in under the floorboards. Still, surely as the dampcourse is above the airbrick that shouldn't make the smell Perhaps it is pipes after all. Oh well, we have a little man coming to investigate.

Jimmi's paw has been salined, and he is now sulking in his lampshade on the spare bed........heard a strange noise just now and went to investigate, and found him trying desperately to scratch his ear. Poor little chap, I did it for him.

I am trying very hard to work out the free gift that came with the washing machine - a Bosch professional steam iron system. It's the size of the titanic, and I am rather sure that it is not for the likes of me!!!

Oooh I love Stephen King but haven't read anything of his for ages. Enjoy!

Have a good day tomorrow - always so emotional isn't it.

Oh God do you know what - I was just thinking today about tiles because obviously the carpet has had it but I thought no, what if we had a leak under the floor ...

Oh H, that's a nightmare to think about - what do you have in your bathroom then?
