    I got up this morning only to find out that BT Vision had lost us our connection to the internet. :'( We've only just got it back.
    We therefore decided to get on with painting the living room but the smell of the paint was making me feel very light headed - despite open windows and doors. :dizzy: However, we finished off the coat we were working on but wanted out of the house. So...... we hit on the idea of taking a few hours off and heading through to Glasgow to pick up Ian's camera that had been in getting repaired. Oh boy what a shock we got when it came to paying the bill - £125!!!! I nearly fainted. :eek:
    We then went to a Chinese restaurant for lunch only to find ourselves hemmed in on all sides by screaming children. :-x Lastly, to cheer myself up, we popped over to see if I could pick up some craft stuff I needed. Guess what? The shop was closed. :'(
    Roll on tomorrow!!

    just speaking of comp. problems--Mine finally died. A virus ran thru it. I'm on a temporary laptop for now until mine gets fixed. Sure hope your day is much better tomorrow Eileen.

    Doesn't sound like a very good day at all Eileen. I'd got to bed early and start fresh ;)

    Cor, Eileen! What a day. :( But that 125 pound camera repair bill was a shocker!
    Well, at this moment, it IS tomorrow. Have you noticed any changes yet? :)

    Well everything is calm here at the moment. :-D I have my internet connection, the first coat of paint is dry and I'm going to the craft shop again tomorrow. :D Ian has yet to try out his camera (it's pouring of rain) so here's hoping it's in working order again. :fingerscrossed:
    Must head of to bed now as I want to be up early to get the second coat of paint on the walls.
