    t'was boddy, sorry
  • Hi, I'd like to join in again this week - very much enjoyed last week feeling very virtuous and with a further week off work the kids and I (and OH if he's not working) should be able to make good progress.

    One of the things we really need to do is tidy the attic / playroom. We have all sorts of rubbish up there that could really be flung! Hopefully can nag OH into helping tomorrow.

    Morning all :hello:

    Welcome to all the newbies, hugs to everyone new and oldies :p:D

    I'm doing something slightly different to the HHchallenges... I'm doing Buffy episodes :rotfl::rotfl: I'm determined to make it past season 3 before DD comes home (so far so good on the 3rd video of 6 in season 3 :o:rotfl: ). I spent the first episode this morning doing a general tidy up around the livingroom since it was 2am when I went to bed and I just grabbed my phone & keys and went to bed without tidying up :o 2nd episode is on now, and I'm having breakfast, doing computer stuff (email, forums, banking etc) and then I'll study during the 3rd episode (mostly copying and pasting anyway for my OU TMA ;) ).

    Monday Mayhem..

    You can see them from mine sometimes too when the weather is good! Although apparently if you can see the Mountains of Mourne the weather is going to be bad :confused: Never understood the logic of that one.:confused:

    Probably a take on the old phrase that used to be bandied about when I lived in Wales "If you can see Plynlimon, it's going to rain. If you can't see Plynlimon, it's raining"
