    mudbath - is it the lovely mason cash jug? I am so tempted, but really must keep away from lakeland. I want the train cake tin for DS2 as well.

    I did do my HHI last night but the WM is still full. Must go and sort that now, then off to 'big' school for DS2s first session.

    Davgirl, for all most would say 'cancel it quick' it'd be a bit mean to leave your DP stranded. Hope it hasn't been used too much and you manage to get the incorrect transactions back.
    hex hope the first session goes well
    cookie !!!!!!!!! You really don't need us to answer that, enjoy your time with your son, the mess will still be there later and won't appreciate your time as much as your son does!

    Clean the living room before we went out, dragged sofas out etc aswell. Took DP (they couldn't find the problem as now the pains stopped because it takes 3 weeks to get an appointment! Dentist said 'next time try to get in sooner' :rotfl: as DP said he could have come at any point they were open! I ended up spending, on me for a change, too much :o pile of new tops as I have very few without holes and some linen mix trousers. I'm a little, disheartened, got back and there was a assignment back. The last assignment I thought I did well on I just managed to pass, haddn't understood it as well as I'd thought :( so feeling a bit disappointed with that and more nervous about the next which I am working on.

    Sat here yawning, might need to go for a snooze :o after I have hung the washing out of course.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    I like deleting stuff from lists once they are done:D Is much more satisfying than just scoring it out:o Plus it means the list doesnt look so scary:rolleyes:

    Oh now thats a good idea!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Just pulled EVERYTHING out of wardrobes and sorted thru - all I have really done is moved stuff from out of sight to spare room - aka Ebay HQ - now a zillion things to photograph, but I also managed to vacuum inside wardrobes - which considering its the FIRST time and they were built 2 years ago really was a must do!!:o

    Dont be disheartened -- that was just a blip and everyone has them at some stage of their academic life - marker probably had a hangover/was sick/couldnt be assed.
    Oh I could rant about my degree and the marking but hey its over now and I passed so whats the point. AND you too passed the paper and that is the most important part - well done :beer:
