    I'll join you with the rest of my drink Flower :) Got more to add to my list though:

    Emptied dishwasher
    Filled dishwasher and put it on
    Folded a huge basket of clothes
    Hung some wet washing out
    Put away rack of dry washing up
    Washed a load of washing
    Cleaned the sink as it was skanky

    Moved 95% of the wood off the drive and stacked it up next to the shed
    Took the dog for a walk
    Emptied dishwasher
    Filled dishwasher and put it on
    Hung up yet more clothes

    So I'm getting there! Think after I've finished my coffee I'll get all the dry clothes down and fold them, then get all the washing up and put a new load on. Then I'm going to brave outside again. Bit more to move before you can fit two cars in that space, you can get about one and a half cars in it now.
    Fluttering about an inch off the ground, I may fly properly one day and soar in the clouds!

    Gryfon you must be psychic, as I thought of you straight away, as I thought it may cheer you up after you've been feeling poorly. I've thanked 100 for you!
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    Thank you! :D

    Right I'm watching you all now (see new avatar) so I hope you're all being productive ;) I have my eyes on you :rotfl: That was my procrastination this morning!

    Think I've warmed up enough to brave the outdoors again. Mr G can help me inside I think, will do the outside whilst it's still light.

    oo I love going for refunds... I am such a tightwad I don't often pay full price for anything .. my hubby thinks I am a little strange.. I'll go for you Kaz..

    Good job you werent with me, I was bad enough on my own !!

    CS trout (sorry no offence to trout) first said that (as I was holding special offer leaflet) that the offer wasnt in that store, then told me she'd check price on shelf and came back with full price ticket, then told me I'd bought the wrong size, at which point I was fuming (PMT alert) and asked to speak to a manager, while waiting for him I went to check myself, HUGE display on end of aisle under HALF PRICE banner and the shelf edge ticket quoting half price, so I stomped back to CS desk where manager was waiting. I explained the problem and he said but its not all of them. I thrust the price ticket in his hand and said, do you want me to show you or are you just misleading your customers before promptly leading him off to where they were all beautifully stacked. I came out with £7.60 plus an apology from the manager but not the trout :D .

    Will catch up with the rest later as supposed to be doing DD's room - she bought flowers to go in there today as she wants it looking nice - who stole my daughter
