    Hi all... as we have been moved over to here I was wondering if anyone had a quick way of seeing what the daileys are? sometimes I don't have time to trawl through all of the posts to try and find them...

    Any ideas?

    There is method in my madness at doing the beds today. When we come home they'll only be two days used so I won't have to do them again for a week. If I do them today they'll dry before I go away and I won't have to come home to full clothes horses. OMG i'm getting obsessed!!! :eek: :rotfl: and isn't today's list longer than yesterdays and i've already done a load from it :rotfl: .

    Ok, breakfast being made and children stripping beds. I always new they'd come in handy one day!!! xx:D

    That's what I do - make sure you have clean enough bedding to come back to, no laundry - or as little as possible left at home because you KNOW you'll bring enough back with you.

    In case I forget to say it -hope you have a great time. Where are you off to?

    Pigpen edits post 1 throughout the week, adding to it every night, so you only need to read that one.

    Good morning everyone (ooh is THAT the time?)

    It's lashing down here (so my water butt is filling nicely- ever the Pollyanna!) and since DS left his clothes all over his bedroom floor they haven't been washed because I am not his personal maid. So no washing to dry - there wouldn't have been a full load anyway. I did wake up at around 7.30, came downstairs to let in a protesting, moist moggy, who I haven't seen since. I decided, since my children were still asleep, to go back to bed and read. MMmmmmmm - luxury. Then I bathed, and have had breakies, and now have got through about 3 pages of posts, replying to some.

    So today it's the kitchen and dining for me, some ironing, from yesterdays load, and a few 'admin' jobs. The bed will have aired whilst I breakfasted so I'm off back upstairs to clean teeth and make bed.

    I might just check the LIDL website to see if they've got cycling accessories coming up again soon - I could use another bike lock;)

    Welcome to the newbies!:wave: Have a good day ladies!:T
