So which one are you buying? The Snuggie is totally minature, the Freedom is almost two feet shorter, and the Blankoat needs a bank loan!

What's the name of those fabulous Egyptian big nighty things. A word sounding like jellabears or something.

Had one of them once, working for Professors of Egyptian studies. They'd be good, made out of fleece. Holes in all the right places.

Damn I am being lazy today too, DJKQ!

Yeah I know what you mean about writing, I'm getting a fair bit done meself, on here lol.


In fact I think I can safely say that it is the forum that has kept me in bed today.....where I have now been joined by a glass of Perri and a bag of peanuts >:D<

W**F

Same situation this morning; simply can't get up.

Except to make coffee of course.

BUT, the difference is, apart from checking emails and EDF and BBC News, I am full of need to write and am now off to the other side of the bed to do so....! Yayy! Very productive AND in bed with a purring cat at my feet. Thinking of buying that coffee filter machine on offer in the For Sale section so I don't actually have to get up and go to the kitchen.

    • We’ve just done a loft extension and needed it all painted as well as touch ups to the rest of the house. Our experience with Hussein and his team was great. Communication good, they turned up on time every day, and completed the job in the time frame initially stated. The finished job looks great, I would definitely recommend.
    • Sue, we are in a similar position - though not quite as ancient as you! 🤣 Ours is a 21 year old Honda Civic.  Reliable as hell, IS ULEZ compliant, passes all the tests, MOTS etc.  BUT, as it sits on the drive most of the time, is now as dead as a doornail to the extent that we can no longer open it with the fob, though we are able to open the passenger door only, with the key.  Jump leads didn't work, so hubby bought a "starter" similar to what breakdown companies use.  Nowt.  Hubby then called out the AA who were able to start it via their van.  However, the AA advised leaving the car running for at least an hour and a half.  We decided not to do that as the fumes would be unpleasant for us and our neighbours.  They also informed us that unless we replaced the battery, we would not be able to call them out again.  Long story short, once we turned the engine off it wouldn't re-start.  So, hubby has now bought a trickle charger from Argos (roughly £35 and AA approved).  Apparently it could take up to 100 hours to charge and given that we don't want to leave it charging overnight or in the rain, it will be a while before we will know whether this has solved the issue.  So, watch this space! I am hoping this £35 will be a good investment.
