    I'm not doing the kids' rooms - well, I may do the bedlinen! They are big enough to shovel them out themselves.

    I think as it actually isn't raining, I shall go down to the allotment.

    Today's unanswered questions:

    1. In the 30 years I've known OH, he has never participated in any sport of any description. So why, when there is any big sporting occasion, does he spend every waking hour in front of the TV?

    2.I have spent the past five days doing non-stop washing, so why is the laundry bag still overflowing?

    3. What are we going to have for dinner?

    Answers on a postcard please!:D

    Thank you! They are my unanswered questions too. I think my DH may be the twin of your OH. One of the reasons I went away was because of the non stop washing. Guess what, I have come back to same! We are having fish cakes (HM) and spicy lentil rice. I can't find the rice recipe but I think I remember it.

    Hugs to everybody, it seems we all need them at the moment.

    This is our first summer, since 1991, that no one in this house is awaiting exam results. It feels really weird.

    I am not dong anything to DSs rooms except shutting the doors so I can't see the mess.

    So far done

    3 WM loads
    1 TD
    Strpped our bed
    Cleaned carpet of dog pe:eek:
    Cleaned carpet of dog vomit:eek:
    Made vets appointment..maybe they can give me something to help keep me sane.:rotfl: Poor old girl is 14yrs and is not looking too good. It is so sad when they go. No! I am not going to contemplate it yet. I really came back because I as worried about the dog.

    Read loads of posts.. what were you up to last night pigpen ?:rotfl: :rotfl:

    I am very carefully sky watching as it looks like the rain is about to come back. I might have to run.
