Justamum...Mr G is great at finding reduced stuff. Although some of it I wonder if we actually need! When we all go shopping he disappears whilst I get the fruit and veg and comes back with as much reduced stuff as he can carry :rotfl:

Bah I hate bills through the post. Fuel bill is higher than usual because we filled up 3 times rather than the usual 2, the last time we filled was on the 31st :rolleyes: However hopefully this month we'll only need to fill up once. Also in credit on our oil bill but I'm still paying the DD, think I'll keep paying it though as then when I get the tank filled in April/March most will be paid. And a reminder for the doctors bill, will send Mr G to pay it

Right list is just about done, so I think I'll go and sort the wet washing. DD2 doesn't seem to be bothered about milk at the moment.

Morning. Just stopping for a cuppa thanks hellsbells.

DS bedroom is empty and I'm just waiting for the carpet fitter - we are his 3rd job so I expect it will be around lunchtime. I'm going to do some filing and sort out the cupboard in the lounge whilst I'm waiting.

You're lucky. My DH can't do washing. I could explain how to use the washing machine, but it would go in one ear and out the other! I wouldn't trust him to shop - he wouldn't look for reduced and bogof stuff (he can't cook either). DIY he can do, but it takes so long for him to actually do anything. Cleaning and tidying. Hmm, wouldn't like to trust him with that either. Mind you he's good at complaining about other people's untidyness :rolleyes:

My DH does most of the cooking and all of the ironing and always has done. When he cleans a room he totally guts it ... removes the furniture...serious deep clean job. I do the daily cleaning and tidying. He's naturally untidy (you should see his study!!!). He does all the DIY too including things like building a conservatory, converting the attic etc. I really can't complain about him (though I do!!!) :rotfl: .

Lil_me - thanks for posting that pizza hut voucher. It made me do a voucher search and then I found, on this site, the pizza express 2 for 1 with most expensive meal free voucher. We used to eat there a lot before I became money savvy so with the voucher we're going to take the children there on Saturday as a treat - it's DSs birthday on Friday. They're so excited, bless them. Now we don't do it very often it's a real treat. xx

Hmmm I think Mr G could sew if he had to, but he doesn't have to as I enjoy it. He does do a lot of the cooking though if I haven't started anything. He's also fabulous at doing cookies...mmmmm.

Morning, flying visit, off to help DP sort some of the disability groups bikes, can see me getting mucky again but all worth it as loads of kids get enjoyment out of them

Washers on (for 3rd time today!), DW is emptied but other than that flying will have to wait

Have a nice day everyone xx

PS Mudbath, sounds wonderful, hope you all have a great time.

Ooooh i'm all excited. The all singing, all dancing (well for us) dvd recorder with hard drive has arrived!!! I only want it to put the footage from our brick of a camcorder (shouldn't complain as DH's parents gave us theirs when DD was born) onto disc. Right, I need to phone my dad and thank him for his fab birthday/christmas present xx
