Cheers Flo, easy when you know how!!!! pbf.

Lots of info, but I'm still confused!! We already have the garden waste bin, which up until now has been free. Just can't see how they will enforce payment unless they take away the bins from people who don't want to pay, and I can't see them doing that! pbf.

My council here in West Sussex is going to charge for garden waste collection from April. Can't quite see how the men on the collection round will know who has paid and who hasn't. Will they take our bins away if we don't pay? How much would that cost? pbf.

I'd love to know a handyman in patched jeans!! We live in a very expensive part of West Sussex and handymen don't exist. They are all "skilled craftsmen" and charge accordingly! pbf.

I've made several of your recipes, nothing ready to sample yet, time will tell!!! pbf.

WILDBREW Do you invent these recipes? pbf.

Jealous of all you people who live near enough to a supermarket to call in for the bargains! But today I walked my dog past a house which had a pine bed frame by the dustbin, so rushed the dog home and plucked up courage to knock and ask if I could have it. Yes please she said, take it away! I wasn'...

loving the jokes! pbf.

I too am a little concerned about Demi, but I think it is really good that she feels she can tell us about her problems with her weight and her diet. pbf.

Just to thank everyone who has become my friend!! Just hope I can do it all justice! Confused of Coldwaltham (where I live) should now be my signature! pbf.

I definitely want to be back in!!! We missed you Big Al, we couldn't manage on our own! pbf.

If your weather is as mild as it is here it will be fine, Mine has been coming in and out for several years now. It hasn't grown much and I have discovered it likes it feet in water! pbf.

What a tale of woe, poor you! Glad Sophie is doing better out of school. They fail so many of our children these days. The new house sounds great. ransomes, wild garlic here, will be on its way as soon as it shows above ground!! pbf.

I joined facebook because I like doing competions, and most of them now say " like us on facebook" but I would like to have a few friends as well!!! pbf.

Oh me too! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everyone! I had my family Christmas yesterday and am today relishing the thought that for the next few days I have nothing to do! Bliss.
