Easy peasy. A place where we can talk about shopping lists, zoo's and anything we want.
To start it off. The only thing I purchased this weekend was a pint of milk. |

£20 worth of petrol in an overpriced garage and 2 vanilla 99 ice creams.
Also my hedge needs trimming. And my bike needs a wash but I can't use the hose! Mrs. Biker is just drying her hair. (I don't have a facebook account but I think it is something like this!  )

The ice creams were a special treat as it had stopped raining.
I cannot afford such extravagances all the time. Anyone know what I am going to do with all these tadpoles? |

For a bicycle buddy that's over the top a bucket and a sponge would do.

On the whole hosepipe makes the job alot easier. Look forward to using it again. |

Yes difficult to get to that swinging arm and rear engine area without a washer.
Dishwasher's packed up now. Anyone know if it is more economical to wash up by hand or to use a modern eco friendly dishwasher? What uses less water? And less energy? |

If you put immersion on just to wash up, more energy use than a dishwasher I suspect. |

I've just read another topic where somebody wrote, "low intolerance threshold." It got me thinking of something my manager said in a recent sales meeting...
"The potential for this product is unlimitless." So that's what then, limited??? (He also says pacifically instead of specifically, perhaps he rather likes the sea). Hey ho. |
