    Morning all

    Grey overcast skies here. The washing I left on the line last night hs had an extra rinse. But, there's a goodly breeze so hopefully it'll dry again in a couple of hours. If it doesn't, I'll just hide it in the washing machine ;)

    And thank you all for your good lucks for today. But, it is NOT a date. It's two people who have some history meeting up again after 25 years. Simple as that. That's how I look at it anyway.

    I just hope the weather clears up a little. I don't want blazing sunshine and high heat because my hair would go all frizzy and there would be far too many grockles out and about. Fluffy clouds and a cool breeze would be great.

    Right. Off to Dyson the living room AGAIN. The dog is still shedding white hairs everywhere.
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

    Good morning ladies

    Up since 5.45 as had to take French student to catch the coach home today. She was soo lovely bless her, DD will miss her greatly.

    Have managed to scarf fried potatoes, omelette and french bread for my brekkie while I caught up on fred.

    Mudbath - glad finger is improving
    Valli - I stick any overripe bananas into the freezer until I'm ready to bake
    Sarahshattered - good idea not to come on here after a drinkypoos or two, my fingers get very confuddles when I do :o
    SM - thats was loadsa money for your car, its frightening. When we looked at our spends this year our car expenditure was nearly as much as the mortgage :eek:
    Mudbath - the lightsabre's not sharp so I wouldnt worry too much. you'll know it if passes through as surely it will glow :D
    Lilme - big hugs hunny, you have soo much on. Hope you enjoy your times in the caravan with your lovely boys

    OK so plans for today - I dont have any yet (and I havent looked to see what the weekend list is) Weather is a mixture of blue skies and clouds and its very windy so a changeable day I think. Will prob just do some dailies and then maybe start emptying one of the bins (thats the spare room and our room :eek: ) Might also do a nicki and update food inventory as I have way too much stuff again, I mean why do I keep buying soooo much butter just because its on special offer. Oh and just remembered there are loads of bloddy blackcurrants I've been asking OH to do something with for days and he hasnt. Looks like jam making again. SO from not having anything to do I've got loads but think I might have a soak in the bath first.

    See ya all later
    Mortgage, we're getting there with the end in sight £6587 07/23, otherwise free of the debt thanks to MSE help!

    Morning

    Weather is a bit miserable here at the moment but it does look as though it may brighten up a bit later.

    I have a huge list to get through at the top of page 35. I'm going to leave it there and just edit and delete it as I go, until it is small enough to move it up the thread and therefore less embarrassing:o;).

    If anyone wants a HHC at some point today I'll be in it. I love them. Gets so much done.
    And thank you pigpen for being very kind with the weekend list:T

    Good morning Tag and all of you early birds - considering a lot of you were up partying til late last night, you sure get up early!

    Tag I will be up for a HHC - say 10-1030? Am determined to actually eat breakfast, and get dressed before I fly today, as otherwise I'm constantly worried that someone is going to knock on the door when I'm still in my nightie at 1pm. Expecting a parcel which may arrive today you see.

    Rainy and grey again here this morning, so glad I'm up to date with most of the washing (ie the washing basket is no longer overflowing).

    Time to get on with the eating and dressing part.
