    HHC,
    Well, I managed to sweep all the way through, (hideous) finish topping for Pie, make drinks, tidy a little... pretty carp really. Flings duster in the air and says... "it'll all keep!"

    hope its a brilliant day - you had better pop on here at some time tomorrow so we can wish you a happy birthday!1

    love toots xx

    I've just spent my HHc attempting to sort out the hotspot at the side of my bed! The only thing is I needed a rubbish bag so I emptied a carrier bag with bits and pieces in onto my bed. It had glitter in though and 1 of the tubes had lost it's top so my bed is now covered in gold glitter!

    Good evening.
    This is my first look on here today and I haven't even checked which room I should be doing yet. Don't tell pigpen.

    I hope I am right and mudbath has a dalmation. I used to have two and I absolutely adored them. They were very good at stealing food, I hope yours doesn't. We have a kong for our large hound puppy and it keeps him busy for ages. He loves peanut butter in it. When I was in Aldi recently I had a woman in stitches laughing because I was asking DD if the dog liked crunchy or smooth best!

    lil_me,is it easy to get a costco membership? I fancy trying to buy in bulk again once my store room is finished. It doesn't have a roof at present but hopefully once the money comes through we can get the roofer here to get it finished.

    Does anyone know how to clean the dishwasher inside without buying expensive cleaners?

    Dh went to work today and came home with manflu. I have sent him to have a hot bath. He really needs to work as we are desperate for the money as he hasn't worked since the beginning of September. Luckily DSs have helped us out.
