Ooops meant to say that I do wear a pinny, errr I have a fetish for them at the moment. I can't stop buying them whenever I see a new one.. I love wearing them as it makes me feel better about myself, and also I can keep my clothes clean while cleaning or cooking. Errr yes I do have different ones for cleaning and cooking
And I am only 40
But I don't wear a headscarf YET!! Mortgage Free as of 20.9.17Declutter challenge 2023, 2024 🏅 🏅⭐️⭐️

what a very clever excuse
:T
believe me mozzy its no excuse!! this internet connection drives me mad - if I am not active it dies and its not just a case of restarting the internet - the only way I can get back on is restarting the whole computer and my pc is so slow (old like me!) that it sometime takes me 15 mins to get back tio where i was! I have learnt that if I nip back and refresh the page evry 5 mins or so I usually but not always manage to keep it on - but it only works with the MSE site - if i leave my screen on any other site at all or my emails then I have to start all over again:mad: :mad:
