    Haha one of those nights out then pigpen

    Kids eating toasties, DPs decided he doesn't want what I planned and is having beans on toast before work so got myself a lasagne out for myself later. Decided to make them wait and haven't put the heating on yet, told the cold child to put clothes on instead :D he wasn't bothered but his skin was really cold, tights a kippers *** is me.

    Need to clear up a lot of junk that's gathered around the house over the last week when I have been out a lot, not fun, annoying really. Might do some baking if I get time.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

  • Crafty no, havent seen Tom - gues he's been on long hours at the hospital again. Hope by the time you read this you have stopped panicking, you did a quick room rescue and your visitors have been and gone - bet you had a nice chat with them and your panicking was for nothing!!!! We are all the same!!!!
    toots xx
    Yes, of course :rotfl:
    It was lovely to see them. They left my xmas present and I got a hug from a handsome young man (well two actually) Now trying to remember where I dumped stuff when I rescued the front room.

    aaaaaaagggggghhhhhhh - how long does it take a bloke to choose a telly. No wonder he moans he doesnt have time for anything. He's been at the lap top for at least 3 hours searching for the 'one' plus whatever time he was on there when I was out. I even found the one he wanted online, really good reviews from the retailer, but - NO "we can collect one in Peterboroug but its £200 more" and an 80 mile round trip :confused::confused: :mad: :mad: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    I'll bet he does nothing else until he goes to work :rotfl:

    Thanks for the postage tip lilme but all sorted and winging their way to your posties. Oh and my TD has a tiny red reset button on the back for when it trips, dead easy to sort.

    OMG looks like he's moved his @rse from the chair/laptop. Wonder what he's up to, better go and see ;)
    Mortgage, we're getting there with the end in sight £6587 07/23, otherwise free of the debt thanks to MSE help!

    Sorting office phoned, she's never even had the redelivery request email, my postie shouted this morning that I'd been asking him where the other parcels were. She's sending them out on Monday morning (quicker than I can request online) and there is now 5 probably all FL cards....

    kazw !!!!!! just tell him to order it online, I bet he'll find the one he wants cheaper, supplier reviews are worth very little at the mo with so many businesses going under every day! If a supplier goes under or doesn't deal with problems, there is usually a 1 year warranty anyway with the manufacturer. (I only say this as someone I know works for an electricals chain with 7 stores and they might go under VERY soon!) I'll post when your cards arrive :)

    Yey 2 of the kids rooms all sorted and cleaned so until the new year they will just get hoovered and bed linen changed. One more kids room plus ours to go but I need a break now.

    OddJ hope the upchucking has stopped and you get to have a crafty nap

    Soappie well done on finding a framers. I have some old aerial photos of our house about 80 years ago in frames and I love them.

    Going to make a few jammies/mince pies and do a morrisions shopping list before I do anymore cleaning.

    It is amazing how lovely the two 'done rooms' look and what a tip the rest of the house is!
