Morning all from the damp south.


Thanks for the tips re Jacobs Ladder - loads on ebay so I've promised to order him one today. Interesting about making them. DS2 loves woodwork so I think I will buy one and then get him to show his teacher and see if he can make some at the after school tech club they do.

Germish - I need sun too to stop me feeling glum

Must shoot as car due for MoT restest at 9:30. I'll be back for coffee break so can some one get the kettle on.

AnW'sMum

Kettle's on Dusty and morning to everyone else

I MUST find a caravan site for our hols as the kids break up in 2 weeks :eek: and we are supposed to be going away the weekend after they have broken up!

My niece was 13 yesterday and it only feels like she was born yesterday lol she is just about as tall as me and not finished growing yet.

A & W had their school reports the other day which were both excellent and cost me £10 each!!!! Grandad gave them some money as well and no doubt Nannies will give them something when she sees them. W asked if he could spend his money on trains, surprise surprise! .

Hugs to everyone today help yourselves to a :coffee: and some banana bread

Morning all, Well had a bit of a tidy up yesterday. Bought a magazine rack for my piles of assorted papers and magazines (OH calls them my compost heaps).

Also dismantled a pull out cupboard from kitchen as cleaned that up ready to sell.

Had a general tidy up but need to tackle paper piles that are knocking around the house.

Hope you all have a productive day.

It's not raining -yet- here.:D

AnW'sMum

Forgot to mention it earlier (although I am sure most of you know) Unison are striking next Wednesday and Thursday which means that some schools will be shut (including A & W's :mad: )

And lil_me the hugest hug to you, I got a voucher from M&S from the caravan insurance people which was a lovely surprise thank you

Dustykitten

Thanks AnW'sMum I'm back already.

I'm glad A&W got great reports -it is costing me a go-carting trip when DS2 gets his (DS1 has already got his)

Right I've put Heir Hunters on as people keep telling me how good it is so I'll do the family room whilst I watch

winniepooh

I think I will be joining this thread next week. I hope you lot are good at motivating people :rolleyes: Most days I need a rocket up my backside to even think about housework

pigpen

Hubby off to work.. everyone out to school so just little ol' me all on my lonesome!

Best go find my list, some food and a cuppa!! Anyone want one?

Dustykitten

Yes please Piggers I'll have another and quote of the day for you all is:

"People of character do the right thing, not because they think it will change the world but because they refuse to be changed by the world."
