MrsD has had her favourite hairdresser for years. 53 quid a visit and no where to park.
No longer able to go she has just had a 'home visit' hairdresser.
The young lady did an excellent job**. 30 quid and no parking.......a good decision made.
**she also brushed and cleaned up afterwards.

My good lady has been having a mobile hairdresser since the middle of last year, one recommended by her regular hairdresser, she's very good, its also a lot easier, her regular hairdresser is the other side of the city to us, it would take two buses and a short push or one bus and a long push to get there and theres steps up into the hairdresser so she couldn't go in, the only thing she misses is the friends that go in there and the gossip.

Morning all :hello:

Yay..tis Fish Friday again! :hungry::cheers:
Off to try the cuisine at the White Lion, which has recently reopened.
Spent most of last night filling in solicitors stuff which we will hand into their office when we go down to the village at lunchtime.
 
I feel like an old tramp.1

What 2 consenting adults do etc etc - you can fill in the rest

Anyway - new mattress arriving at about 10ish so I'll have to get rid of the old one this afternoon

after that the bathroom designer is coming round at 2 to go through some changes to the design
Bit of a story to it
I hate the old 'matres rates' thing - which is why I never charge for fixing friends computer etc
but we felt obliged to get a relative-in-law of my wife's son to quote fro doing up that bathrooms but he seems to be ignoring us
that was about 4 years ago so we have given up
also been let down by 'friends several time

so we have gone for a proper company that seems to be reliable - more expensive but maybe they will do a good job

anyway - they are coming back - I think we will go with them if we can get a few bits sorted out

finally we will have the house I wanted when I bought it
well - after the carpets are sorted and "someone's" junk from her old house is 'stored' somewhere (or chucked out!)


anyway - finally we are moving forward!

Let's hope we don't have too cold a winter although I have heard predictions that it could be really cold this year. So watch this space I suppose

A really cold winter......just what we need with energy prices rocketing :sad:

I have heard prediction about a very cold winter with deep snow (for England) for many years

never really happened the way 'they' predict - 'they' being the Express interpreting predictions from the more far out ends of the meteorological profession - i.e. not the Met Office!!
