    Kaz I always dust first (I damp wipe) that way any 'bits' fall onto the floor then can be hoovered up.

    Welcome pinky :hello:

    pigpen way-aye, she'll be fine.

I can't quite decide if she has the icky chucky bug the other 2 girls had at the weekend or if it was brought on by her bereavement.. the bunny was hers for her birthday just over 2 years ago... they didn't last long did they?

    Good afternoon Flyladies. Could someone please confirm I'm doing this right?
    I have tidied the last 3 chocolate digestives into my tummy and put the wrapper in the bin. I have tidied the last bit of milk into a nice hot mug of Earl Grey for me. :D
    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D
