    Mmmm, no wonder you were p'd off... I love listening to it, as you can (sometimes) learn quite a bit from it, but I always end up shouting at the TV (usually have that on to watch them, even more fun... ) hear, hear...:rotfl:

  • HHI 1.30 - 2.00???
    (we can do it while we watch TV) ;)

    Will someone remind me that I need to collect a prescription sometime between 2pm and 3.30pm, please. I forgot yesterday and I've run out of tablets.

    In my HHC I de-furred the bathroom, scrubbed the tiles, washed them down about 3 times to get rid of resistant hair, scrubbed the bath and shower head, wiped all the floor/lower walls down to get rid of more hair and unblocked the plughole (someone remind me to do that more often please - didn't realise it had built up that much, not nice at all! :eek: )

    I still need to do the loo, put everything back on glass shelves at end of bath and vacuum thoroughly (got to wait a bit till its dryer) but most of the hair is now gone... :j

    Right, I'll join you in that HHI I think while I watch neighbours, see you in a bit...

    Afternooon all
    How are we all today?
    Is it odd that I felt the need to polish the wardobe that I'm probably going to have to smash up on Saturday morning? My dad and sister stood watching me with rather perplexed expressions.
    So far today:
    Dogs fed
    People breakfasted and lunched
    WM x2
    Washing on line
    DW unloaded and reloaded with lunch and breakfast dishes
    Table cloth thrown in the WM
    Odds and ends from bedroom thrown in trailer ready for the tip tomorrow morning
    Veg parboiled for roasting tonight

    Now having some laptop time whilst I wait for someone to come out a survey the walls for cavity wall insulation. Hoping he's better than the last one who smashed an air vent and left two great bog holes in the wall ( which darling dad has had to patch up) a month ago and hasn't even given us a quote yet.

    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Thank you SO much honey... maybe I will do it after I finish posting on here.. or something..

    Oh it was - pollock fillets from Lidls (£2 for 1kg), smoked mackerel on offer in Tescos and some whoopsied prawns. Add onions garlic and red pepper to pan and fry off a bit, cook fish fillets under grill for 5 mins, break into peices and add to mix with half a bag of raw prawns and put in dish. Make cheese sauce (or cheat and use packets left over from non OS days :p ) and pour over mixed fish. Then top with mashed potato and carrot mixture and a sprinkle of cheese. Pop into oven for 20 mins. Served with broccolli.

    It was much nicer than I thought it would be which is why I am so proud of it...:rotfl: :rotfl:

    I will. It will be a good excuse to start my patchwork bag. I never did get round to doing any sewing earlier - I ended up picking up a tub of hama beads which LO decided to spread around. :rolleyes:

    Me please. I have just bribed the boys with a new packet of colouring pencils each so hopefully get a bit of peace to get on.
