    DS has wet the bed - only thing is he was in my bed at the time and it's soaked through all into my mattress - I am not impressed!

    Just one more batch of cakes to go in the oven and then I'm done. Unfortunately, I can only fit one tray in at a time so it takes ages to cook everything.

    DD is upset because one of the teachers is leaving today and now wants a present for her - she has made her a card this morning - so may end up calling at the shop to get some chocs or something.

    Hope everyone has a good day

    Blimey I haven't even put a load of washing on yet :eek: Normally it's the first thing I do in the morning.

    Right, off to do that, then change all the beds and do a general "make it look presentable" before midday as DH is finishing early today as he has a doctor's appointment.

    Morning ladies

    Germish I'm glad yoru neice is safely here, spooky about your SiL prediction, how's your head? I find paracetamol plus (the plus is caffine) good at shifting headaches.

    Last morning of all kids at school. Plan:

    Wash on line
    Clean bath
    Take hoover upstairs
    Tidy upstairs
    Put next wash on
    Meet friend for coffee
    Early lunch
    Put second wash on line
    cycle to town
    1 hour of jobs in town
    Meet different friends for coffee
    Collect DS3 from school
    The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair
