    Awwww ... I tell you what, the approach that Goldie's described makes sense to me - when I'm on the diary, I'll be *on* it, but not visiting it every time I come onto mse ...

    Perhaps a summary of some actions, rather than blow by blow - I've always gone for the blow by blow approach, which was really important at the time, but perhaps a little counter-productive now :o:rotfl:

    SHS, you and I are blogging sisters in any case :beer:

    Sorted! Gwyneth Paltrow has conscious uncoupling, I have conscious diary-writing :j

    Thanks for the feedback, lovely peeps :)

    KC we need you to continue. I'd never have heard of solar kettles if it wasn't for you :kisses3:.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Aw KC, I Completely understand, SO easy to get sucked in and spend so much time here :eek: I tend to do blow by blow too :o sometimes it helps, but as you say, perhaps sometimes it's stopping you doing other things...

    Do what's right for you lass, not us, but don't ever worry on our account about posting irrelevant things :D

    It'll be good to see you when you're here :D

    Morning! How lovely :o mould removal and all :j

    That's the answer, I think, not to do things automatically, but to post here in particular because it's right - and probably more interesting too :j - not just "Wednesday was busy again".

    Today *isn't* too busy - I went out into the garden and did my back in somewhat, though at least it didn't stop me sleeping. Going to start strengthening exercises as soon as I possibly can - I'm sure this has happened because I was lounging about with the combo of fatigue and lurgy, grrr. Can't wait to retire! But today is a beautiful day, so I'll do some walking first.

    She and I are doing mould removal in tandem :D

    Actually, I was a lazy tyke, and when I first did it with that HG stuff, because it literally disappears the mould, I didn't rinse it off. This was a mistake :o and it's now reappeared, though only tiny bits :o

    Anyway, today, already phone calls and emails, and, um, I'm going to have to work while sitting in a sit up and beg type chair, not in my usual comfy position, my back's too bad :eek: I've got two hours to do.

    Other than that, I'll walk up and down the road, to get my back straight. I envisage a lot of iplayer in my day today :eek:



    ETA - bless Helen Mirren, to the hundredth generation (if she had kids :) ) for this photo of her with the shopping trolley: http://www.express.co.uk/celebrity-news/607176/Dame-Helen-Mirren-enjoys-low-key-stroll-trolley-glamming-up-red-carpet

    Love her to bits even more now!
