    And don't get me started on her performance last night, she really ruined that song and trying to look all coy and demure.

    Oh.. is THAT what it is... I thought she was either in some form of trance like state or constipated!

    Pigpen - Lancashire has a coast too...dead select it is...Lytham St. Annes, Southport and Blackpool... very posh:rotfl:and Fleetwood...many happy hours spent there...

    It does not.. there is a county worth of sand and mud flats before you reach water it therefore does not have a coast!!

    My great aunt used to live at Fleetwood and she was 2 streets from the 'coastline' .. and it took us 45 minutes to walk to the water... that is absolutely NOT coast!!

  • :wave: Hello everyone.

    DH and I have spent the whole day sanding the dining room, it's all done !!:j
    Unfortunatly, we've had to gut the kitchen as it was covered in dust.
    Also washed out the bin it was disgusting!:o

    Hopefully i will be able to keep up with the thread as i had an easy week to start as i was off work for the week.

    My house is a dump. Left DH and DS home alone for all of 30 hours. First time away without one or other of them for about three years. Returned to a tip :mad:. ARGGHGH. Off to bed, will deal with it tomorrow. DH driving me up the wall. At least it's almost Monday and can pack him off to work early ;). Any room will work for me!!

    Miserable grey day then rain - thank goodness it's the last day in November.

    Finished all my school work just about this morning, only bits and pieces of typing up really, and have uploaded it all just now.

    In between, large amounts of washing and cooking! I even had time to go to my garden society meeting - although I went late as I had one of those headaches that last all night and then only wore off after lunch. I'm glad I went as it was really interesting, and also good to catch up with all my gardening friends! Horrible journey home in lashing rain though.

    Hugs to all! I'll be back flying on Tuesday if I don't get a day's supply.

    Oh - nearly forgot - today's big event (drum roll) I have a curtain pole in the living room!!! Just the one. Two more to go. I decided I'd wait until after Christmas to buy the material in the sales. No point spending more than I need to!
