Hi,

I'm back from my Sisters. We all had a lovely time swapping presents. Ds2 is still awake playing in his room with the Peppa pig sets he got.:rolleyes: I might get a lie in in the morning. I've still got loads to do but don't feel like doing it tonight.

DD has defo got the flinging bug! She has thrown away most of her hitherto extensive bobble collection - inc. primary school scrunchies and she's in year 8 now. I have binned them as I can't see anyone wanting s/h bobbles...
Off to collect DS from GF and hand over gifts from DD and me...Claret is one...

Hello all, jsut back from pub, friends haven't come back as we're all tired/full of colds (hence still met up) anyway before we went the downstairs (apart from conservatory) hall, stairs and bathroom were blitzed! Dp helped a lot actually, nice suprise, the TV cabinet got his special attention which I have been asking to be done for ages.

No meat to get out here as I pick that up fresh in the morning, tomorrows going to be a bit chaotic, bit like today but not in the house, so far, will add as I remember
