    :hello:
    Morning all,

    well i have ahad a little catch up this morning, hugs to those that need them and well done Nicki for getting your CMA finished.

    I have been flyiong but its been done on an evening. I am now on holiday from work until January 5th. Its great as the house is staying almost tidy downstairs. Will be doing the upstairs over the next few days. Its been hectic. On monday 2 docotors appointments and a dentist appointment. Yesterday had to nip and pick up some pressies from argos and then pick up MIL and go to school play. DD was fabulous:D she spoke very clear. SO its been alot of running around but as i am not working i am getting it done on a night.

    Today i have bathroom to do and geneeral tidy downstairs. Then a quick smarten up of 1 bedroom today, and so on for the rest of the week.

    But that will be later i have to go to town again to pick up some more pressies, then call for some bits at asda and then go to playgroup party at 1 till 2:30 then pick up kids make tea. Another busy one.

    Enjoy flying ladies, catcha y'all laters :wave:
    You can touch the dust but please don't write in it !

    Would you like to speak to the man in charge, or the woman who knows whats happening?
