mugpi mugpi @doclorraine ...at the moment it's that dark cloud looming just over beyond horizon - but it's there! :-/ 17:18 24 Aug

mugpi mugpi @doclorraine nope..hit the nail on the head there! along with buying school uniforms, xmas shopping & sorting bday parties #hobsonschoice 17:10 24 Aug


mugpi mugpi @doclorraine hmmm... hard instructions for a relative novice in the kitchen like me to follow though! :-) @The_Moiderer 16:59 24 Aug


mugpi mugpi @doclorraine for me this is a journey on the dark side...I can wire up a surround system or build decking by instinct, but domestics-no way! 16:58 24 Aug


mugpi mugpi Managed to get to bed before midnight, which I still class as an early night. Gnite all :-) 18:53 23 Aug


mugpi mugpi @NikkiiH yes, Picasa is a fab product... and another one at my favourite price point ... £0.00! (though I do pay for extended pic storage) 16:57 23 Aug


mugpi mugpi @TweetSmarter and of course they can refollow me again later, but 95% either don't notice, don't care or don't bother following again 16:56 23 Aug


mugpi mugpi @TweetSmarter sure, but when I force them from my followers list those users account's will, as far as they know, "magically" unfollowed 16:56 23 Aug


mugpi mugpi @NikkiiH thanks :-) I'm lazy & just use the Google Picasa "I'm Feeling Lucky" button which does a reasonable job most of the time! 16:51 23 Aug


mugpi mugpi @NikkiiH my daughter does some pretty amazing stuff with GIMP,like this http://twitpic.com/1hi1p1**er.com/NikkiiH ">@NikkiiH my daughter does some pretty amazing stuff with GIMP,like this http://twitpic.com/1hi1p1 not bad for a 13yo even if I say so myself 16:44 23 Aug


mugpi mugpi @NikkiiH I'll have to give GIMP a try - I currently use an ancient version of Paintshop Pro but need something good for web site graphics 16:42 23 Aug


mugpi mugpi I'm bloody tired...thankfully not half as much ironing as I thought (forgot the bottom half of the basket was all towels) - cuppa time now 16:30 23 Aug


mugpi mugpi @catinabaglady I'll let you explain that to my 13yo daughter ;-) 16:15 23 Aug


mugpi mugpi @catinabaglady wouldn't be so bad if it was mine...it is mostly the kid's clothes :-l 16:11 23 Aug
