    Well in that case you'll save a bit of money if you re-use the dress!;)

    I've been so busy flying, I've done a pigpen (forgot to eat) so I'm off to find something for lunch. I only have mopping the kitchen floor and wiping the paintwork down left to do, so will do that after lunch as it's actually warm enough open the window when I mop.

    My eldest 2 have little feet but my youngest 2 have huge feet, my ds3 who is now 22 months has just gone to a size 7h so wide feet too.... where as the oldest 2 are a standard f fitting. Its annoying that clarkes do the wide fittings and charge and absolute fortune.

    Afternoon all. I'm home again :D

    Tia - fantastic news about the shop!

    Well, got to work this morning to find the next phase of my project won't be ready until the earliest Monday so I stuck around and did half a day then came home and am taking tomorrow off as well :D

    We have lovely sunshine here this afternoon so I already have one load of washing on the line and am about to put another one out. Then I shall potter and decide what to do with the rest of the day.

    2. Wipe down any paintwork that needs it.
    3. Binbag dance.. Get a binbag.. fill it and bin it!!!
    4. Wash any cushions, throws or curtains that need it - none need it

    Great minds think alike vivw, I finished at 2.53pm :D

    Anyway re tided the kitchen, wiped surfaces, unloaded and reloaded dishwasher. Took stuff upstairs. Swept and mopped kitchen floor and caught up with the thread.

    Sun's still shining. that's why I'm in such a good mood.

    Right off to watch Ghost Whisperer yet again. Be back later.

    :wave:

    Definitely possible but depends what you want. None of my 3 marriages have cost more than £1000 and the first two cost only a few hundred each.
