    You can flatten lemonade by heating it - either drink warm or let it cool or by shaking it in a bottle vigorously with space for the bubbles to come out (only used the first method)

    Apparently warm lemonade is very soothing for a sore throat;)

    I think it was having sarah yesterday, followed by chippy & a glass of wine and then 12 hours sleep, not motivation at all :rotfl::rotfl:

    I'm going to have a browse of ebay now to see if I can get curtains to fit across the livingroom (used to be 2 rooms, now knocked into 1 but the fire is in the front half and the back half where the computer is is freezing cold!), If I can, and I can figure out a way of putting them up ;) I might get some and start using my laptop in the sitting area instead...will just see.

    So is Southern Comfort ;):p :rolleyes: :D

    Hello all,

    Huge hugs (from a distance) for all you poorly flyladies! And for all those with 'difficult' other halves!

    No flying done again but, in true Valli / Toots / everybody! style I am going to concentrate on the fact that I finished the list on 3 days this week :D and not on the fact that the planning for tomorrow is not doing itself :rolleyes:

    Had a great time at the Silver Wedding do last night - there was a live Irish music group and Celidh dancing, lovely food, and lager!

    Just calmed down after the excitement / stress of the last bit of the Grand Prix ......

    ...... now MUST do that planning - enthusiasm / kicks / ooomph to be sent this way please!!
