    g&b hugs to you and your little one, hope you are both feeling better soon, with the interest cut I think most said it would take several months to pass anything on, I know my friends mortgage went down slightly this month from the first drop made
    Penny tut tut on sleeping in, at least you weren't at work :rotfl: could have been worse.
    tinypawz I think I know that little smiling face :D did you used to be a fairy?

    Gas safety cert done, gas guy couldn't get the fire to light either and pointed out something illegal, eeek, will send that to the LL anyway. He's also showed me how to use the boiler properly and hopefully more efficiently and I wasn't embarrassed letting him in :o :rotfl: oh apart from when he hit his head on some of DPs toy cars in the garage but then mentioned his son has one which needs fixing so DP has offered to sort it for him (like I said everyone elses hero!)

    Going to HHF (I like that term!) the boys room to warm myself up a bit 10.30-11am anyone?

    Off to find my list and see what I can get done!
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Morning all

    One load of washing done, haven't hung it out because although it's beautifully sunny out there with lovely blue skies, it's also freezing cold and doesn't seem to be melting yet! Draped it round the radiators.

    Put the computer on at 6.30 am when I got up and booked my Asda delivery for Monday 22nd. I can fiddle with the order later, at least I've got my slot.

    Had my hair cut this morning.

    Gave the kitchen a good clean and damp wiped the living room and vacuumed right through downstairs (vacuumed kitchen again after haircut but it needed doing first before anybody else saw it :D)

    Rang vets to order dog's medicines (three different sorts) to pick up Wednesday.

    OK, back to catch up on posts. Hope everyone's OK. Welcome to any newbies :)

    I'm in, albeit a bit late - DS has picked everything up off the floor and put it all on the bed at the moment - he's not happy... When I stood watching him he moaned and groaned and moaned some more but he did it, I left him to it and nothing, not a sausage done, so I stood there again and it is now done - now he has to sort it all out - but at least the tired little love can sit down and do it - don't want to wear him out...;) :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    There are far too many enthusiastic people on here at the moment :rotfl:

    I've managed so far to empty and load the dishwasher, empty the washing machine and change DD2 and feed her.

    My cough is refusing to budge so I'm feeling a bit cacky. Really need to do all my online Christmas shopping today so it's all out of the way and I know how much money I'll have left!
