    Thanks all re the cream, shall try and get into town tomorrow and to Boots and see what's there. Even when I've put the cream on and not washed my hand it's only 30 minutes later and they're dry again :( It's horrible when you're sorting the dry washing, makes me want to retch :rolleyes:

    Anyway I'm getting through all the stuff, it's slow going but hopefully by the end of the week the boxes in the kitchen will be sorted though.

    Just need some white LEDs for my black Christmas tree now :D My mum saw it and said it was horrible :rolleyes: However I love it and I think with those lights and then silver, purple and white decorations it'll look lovely!

    Gryfon try Palmers cocoa butter or shea butter. I have the dryest skin ever and that stuff is brilliant.

    dusty hope DS not too poorly there seems to be lots of bugs about at the mo.

    Thanks - he is on the sofa - temp just over 103 so no wonder the poor thing feels rough. He says his neck and brain hurt - guess that means sore throat and headache:rotfl: Refusing medicine which is most unusal as he normally wants it if the others need it.

    DS just come home from school as has free period, he's just commented how strange it must have been to be home alone, hadt thought about it til then - Thats why I got so much done :rotfl: Right I think its time for a cuppa and a quick tidy (not clean as way too much to do in there) in the dining room.

    Cuppa's for anyone - help yourself :coffee: :coffee: :coffee: :coffee: :coffee:

    Same here Kaz, so much easier when they're not there...;)

    Thanks for the cuppa - was going down the tip, but DD sent home - new job didn't want her coz she's away Christmas, even thought they already knew that and were going to try her today to see how she got on ready for the new year!!!! so went to work for nothing, why didn't they say that in the first place???:mad: :mad: :mad: so upset for her, but she'll get something I'm sure...

    so anyway, just grabbed a jacket spud (thanks to whoever mentioned it earlier, it was yummy) and a cuppa, then empty out car into garage, load up with stuff for tip, go to tip as DD will be here by then, get back, pick up DS and dogs, then go to kennels... :( (the one sad bit...) so will see you in a while as need to get the cleaning done now...;)

    Ooh Dusty that's a high temp ... hope he has taken something now...

    Me Flower I had mine with cottage cheese and salad - I lurrve jacket spuds...
    and the salad included a bit of pepper (red and yellow) so I chopped all pepper up ready to go into a veggie chilli later as my mum fetched me some passata...not been able to get any for weeks and I buttonholed the manager at M0rrisons about it...cricking my neck in the process - he's about a foot-and-a-half taller than me!:rotfl:

    Bathroom done to a full 3 ... will post list later as I am going into the lounge now before the kids get home...

    Thought of going to Woolies ... but feel like it would be like going over a house after a bereavement IYSWIM... bet I get in there on saturday though!

    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    My OH is soooo going to be mad. He hates to throw anything away but he's had these 2 pine breakfast bar stools ever since I met him. Now in 12 years we havent had a breakfast bar so these stools have just kicked about. One has been used as a plant stand in the dining room for years and the other has just been lurking in the kitchen. The wood had split and been repaired once and had split again and noone ever got around to repairing it so I've just sawn it up for firewood - and lit the fire before he gets home. Ahhh the rebel in me :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    PS hugs to all the poorlies
