Hi all,
I've been house-sitting for in-laws and OH let slip that they want to give me a pressie for sorting out all the decorators/electricians/plumbers etc in their absence. He suggested champagne and truffles. Aargh. Don't really do chocolate! Would much rather have a good book.
What would you rather have? Unless you LIKE choccies......! ::)
-
Ooooo now I do like choccies BUT I'd much rather be paid in fence posts ;) ;D
-
Happy Hippy,
That made me chuckle. Bizarre, out in left field (no pun intended). Hope there are lots of other atypical responses to laugh about too. :D ;D :wave:

Field drains ;D

a return house sit! they get 4 hyperactive children aged between 4 and 9, a noisy cockerel, 2 very cheeky goats and a miserable guitar playing/drumming husband while I go to a spa!!
-
::) Whiskey!!!!
-
Plums everywhere!
Used to (occasional) grumpy OH, boisterous kids (used to be a nanny), don't mind the cockerel and goats. Tell you what - I'd house-sit for you for a shed load of bath bombs/few soaps!!! (lovely whilst soaking in bath reading a 'good book'!). :&> :&> :&> :&> :&>

a pond liner would do me ;) :wave:

We built a pond last year but went ahead without too much planning, now the edges are not straight and it never got properly finnished, be warned, the pond liner was fairly cheap from the internet!! good luck!

aything edible including chocolates (champagne gives me indigestion but white wine will do!) with a good book ;D :&>
-
£10 to trawl the charity shops for good books would be a good "Thank you" for me :) :)

A year of driving me to the big dog shows in Englandshire ;D
