I had a piece of glass cut to size in a framing shop by park'n shop on al was road. Sorry can't remember the name if the store, but you can't miss it once you are there. Give them a try.

We had sewage smell in our ac. Aparently ac needs to drain somewhere and draw air from somewhere. We have chilled water ac units. Drains were blocked in one room and gardener left a bag of rotting leaves by air vent affecting another room.

I saw a great way to display photos on a decorating program last week. A couple bought an overhead projector and put it up on a ceiling and hung a very pretty empty frame on the wall opposite. Photos were then displayed on random setting in that frame. It made a real feature. I am mind to do the same.

I had 4 kids over 15 years and seen evolution of baby transport. Went with the fad the last time and got a quinny. What a complete waste of money: hard to fold, too heavy and left black tyre marks in the boot, tyres constantly blow and nowhere to hang a bag. Downsized to to having a sling and a maclaren. You can now buy telescopic buggies well padded from birth onwards. The only downsize is that baby faces away, so does not see your reassuring face. Slings are good for first few months, baby can smell you and hear your heartbeat and be kept warm by you.

Just use bicarbonate of soda instead, only reduce the amount. Half a teaspoon should be enough for a cake. P.s. I never use baking powder and all my produce goes down a treat. <em>edited by Marina on 16/01/2011</em>

Just a thought, why not consider buying a duramax shed from carefore? They come in different sizes and it will probably work out cheaper.

We were in Dragon Mart over the weekend and I was shocked that one could even find medical equipment there. There was a shop selling everything from walking sticks to what looked like life support beds in furniture section of the mall. The shop was very busy with customers. Given that everything else there is attractively priced, give them a try.
