I have done that in the past Z and also put weed killer on...i think they just thrive on it all. Must be a new type of dandelion, hardy and resistant to everything. Well either that or the companies are sneaking in a growth hormone that slow releases so you have to buy more of it.:cool::rotfl:Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?

Tidy up a bit - did yesterday but DS came home from school again...
Go into town for DS pressie buying mission (permission granted to spend money)
Go to gym although it might actually be more swimming/sauna thing today I think.
Change beds
Iron....
I'm assuming I'm not carbooting tomorrow so will go find some more treasures to put in pile for when pal is ready
Weed - worst thing on the list but I shall aim for half an hour a day at this today and tomorrow and if more needs doing on monday then will finish it then.
The sun is here at last so must go get sheets in machine and hang them out before shopping.
All done bar the weeding - did five mins then got bored! demani, demani...:o I did 40 lengths in the pool which is 800m, not bad then went to the steam room and then had a jacuzzi. Very relaxing.:DMortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

I wouldn't call 40 lengths relaxing ...a walk and an illicit teacake is relaxing:D:rotfl:Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?

:rotfl::rotfl: I kind of zone out when I'm swimming and I had the pool to myself for the first 30 so it was mentally relaxing if you know what I mean!

Woohoo!:j:j:j Just weighed myself and I've lost a couple of pounds which is really good as I only stopped eating junk on thursday! so that's despite a fish supper the other night.... I'm now thinking about the health aspect of eating junk and putting on more weight each year and determined that's not going to be me - fingers crossed anyway.:D
I really need to do some weeding today so weeding, food shopping and gym it is. I'm hoping the weather's nice tomorrow so DS and I can do something outdoorsy but I don't think the forecast is too good. Still we're not made of sherbert as my pals dad used to say to us...Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

if we're losing Bob they are obviously working properly! if we'd put on weight I'd find them dubious.... My legs are much more toned already, just wish my tummy was - actually it might be quite toned but you can't see for padding...Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000
