    Sorry I'm a bit miserable today. Beating myself up over some photos I'm trying to sort out for club tonight. Being far too critical which is getting me down. Maybe I should tidy for a break :)

    mOZzy...it's for various competitions and I keep forgetting that I've only had my good camera since May so I'm still learning, and I'm not a professional! I hate getting so wound up but I can't help it!

    Think I might do a kitchen rescue, DW and finish the rest of my study floor.

    Good morning all, I'm having a sit down after my driving lesson.....I'm finally learning to drive at age forty-seven, and it's going fine but in a stressful way!!

    Well I'd better dust myself down and get over my dissapointment that pigpen isn't going to appear with purple wings and a large wand and sprinkle fairy dust over my household achievements ( I think that's what they do on the american flylady site, but I did find it rather confusing )

    Doing all this cleaning I have exhausted some of my cleaning supplies, now down to vinegar in a spray bottle. Just wondering if we have a list of favourite cleaning supplies....I know lots of people like stardrops, haven't been able to find it at my local Tescos, will look for it when I go into town tomorrow.
