............to create a quiet corner.

For Freeserve read Freecycle.

I was dipping with one hand while using the other to check whether anyone wanted the magazines I listed on Freeserve. They all have good homes to go to. The wildlife ones to a teacher with an easily distracted class on Friday afternoon doing predator-prey cut and paste, the New Scientists to a physics addict, the NTS and Scottish Heritage to his wife (presumably to keep her quiet while he reads the New Scientists)

MMmm I think there might be one left for you elegran

Half of them are gone but if you pass them round QUICKLY so that they get back to me you can dip in. I can't open these without finishing the box.

And me! I need one! I deserve one! Give!

You haven't noshed the lot yet, have you*E*? Would love one

I've just opened a box of Guylian seashells. Anybody want one before they all vanish?

Too bad, pomps! But you really should do what Mrs P tells you suggests sooner! Hope it clears up soon.

My wife is very pleased with herself, she has been nagging me to go to the Doc's with the cough and bad chest I have had for 3 weeks. I said "it will clear up on it's own" but, under duress, finally went to Doc's this morning, returned with anti-biotics for an infected chest .

pompa good to hear that your friend is home.

This shed is beginning to sound like a very fattening place! Move up I'm coming in for a cuppa!

Very pleased to hear your news, pompa!

Great news this morning, my friend is home from hospital, late last night. Spoke to him for a few minutes this morning. He is obviously very tired and weak so did not want to keep him trying to chat too long.

No, that's OK, thanks, Bags, I'm not over-keen on cakes anyway!

(Especially not half-noshed ones....)

Oh, how kind nag. I suppose that means I have to share the

No, really, it's not a problem. I've only had two bites... You can have the unchomped side
