Morning, how's your day going so far?

Just back from the shop, as needed kitchen roll and a few things, I can confirm it is absolutely freezing outside. The frost hasn't even melted away. Topped with a North wind 💨.  
I put heating heating on before I went and put my snuggy top on radiator for when I got back

I might have to go to shops later, my online order has 6 things missing cos I said no substitutes.....

That's a shame I understand not wanting substitutes though. I briefly worked as a pick and packer and policy was to pick ANYTHING to substitute even if it made no sense. The managers had targets to hit and we'd get admonished if we failed to substitute something unless it specifically said 'no substitutes'. I once saw someone get a candle instead of the body wash they asked for because it had the same scents.

That's crazy @Jimm_Scope, now I know why I got mint instead of coriander . wrap up @Autism_at_40 it's really cold out.

Your up early @Autism_at_40

LOL - yes, I have a support worker coming today and tomorrow.  Nice to see some daylight for a change

Jimm_Scope

That's one of the better substitutes I've heard of @Sandy_123 :P At least they're both edible!

@Ada You should be warm too though, our Energy Support team  can be reached via email if you cannot call them. They can try to get you support with the energy bills.

Wow, that is ridiculous.. that's why I don't want substitutes, I know what I want and if that's not what they have, I'd rather not have anything.. also a reason why I prefer to go to the shops myself, so I can pick what I want.. but wasn't meant to be this week..

Wood is much easier to keep clean @66Mustang! Me and my partner prefer wood, as I think @Teigr mentioned, you can wash them easily without such a machine.

Enjoy your hot shower Ada that’ll heat you up, I hate that you can’t put the heating on when you’re cold. You should find out about the help Scope can recommend for you. As everyone can access this help. ❤️

@Tori_Scope
Aww it’s great to hear from you, I’m glad you’re still around and I hope the new job is going well.
It’s so so cold glad you’re nice and warm, pity about your hands though.  ❤️

Lou67

Hi everyone I hope yous are all doing well and having a decent day.
Well that’s the workmen away I’ve cleaned all my floors and now sat down with a cuppa. 

There’s more workmen appeared outside my windows cleaning the eves I think that’s what it’s called lol I suggested they needed cleaned last year but was ignored.
Sorry no more moaning well for today anyway 😂

66Mustang

@Lou67

Is everything sorted now or still more to do?

Sorry if you said already, I lost track, I get a bit overwhelmed when I go away for a few hours and come back to 20 posts so I just skip to the end lol

Lou67

@66Mustang
Aww no I hadn’t said earlier, they are coming back on Friday to go back up to wipe down the wood.
Also there’s things inside to repair.
Im trying to get them to paint my house as it’s been badly stained. 

At least the lofts nearly finished 🙏

66Mustang

@Lou67

Oh that's a shame at least there has been some progress though.

Lou67

@66Mustang
Oh yes definitely the bulk off the jobs finally done so there shouldn’t be dust coming through.

How are you I have spoke enough about my troubles I want to give yous peace from it all now lol 

Sandy_123

66Mustang
