    oops, a bit late but i am in!
  • Well I've tidied desk at work, don't finish till 5.30, but arn't doing anything else unless the phone rings!!

    Blooming heck - just had to work as someone came in for rental keys- wish they'd stop as keep having to minimise so they don't know I'm slacking!!

    Hopefully the cornbeef hash will be edible when I get in, 10 hours seems a bit OTT but it's in the slow cooker so hopefully ok.

    Afraid I'm not going to do any flying tonight as I'm cream crackered and can hardly drag my weary bones anywhere, pj's and slippers for me. Is that ok?!

    Tonight I must:
    [STRIKE]
    Empty and fill DW
    S&S kitchen
    [/STRIKE]
    Wash uniforms
    [STRIKE]
    Hoover
    [/STRIKE]

    Plus animals fed, and all downstairs hotspots cleared (other than the playroom which is a hotspot in its own right)

    Off to clean up a glass of wine whilst making dinner for the boys.

    I notice on hotukdeals that asda have their basic white dinnerset reduced reduced to £3 a go for anyone (like me) who needs replacements after clearing out all the chipped ones last week.
