    I've cleaned the lampshade from the little bedroom. It's pleated and was absolutely thick with dust. I brushed it all out with a paintbrush then dipped it in soapy water and then rinsed it under the cold tap. It's outside on the garden bench now, drip-drying.

    And it's GREEN !!!


    Triker - have you got some soup and a straw? Hope it feels better soon.

    Tag, there's no need to be scared of the dentist, they're great, anything is better than toothache.:D

    I'd rather go to the dentist a kazillion times then go on a flight again.;)

    Going to see if there is anything I can eat.....or at least sniff, I'm hungry. Torturing myself by watching the food channel, :rotfl:they're talking about chinese food at the mo, slather, slurp.

    Flying stuff erm, I've put the dressing in the bin.:D

    Well my oven is looking a bit better, got my shelves soaking in the toy box just got to keep swapping them over.

    Mother is doing my head, she has come up today and she is just sitting on her a*se doing !!!! all. She said she comes up for the company but its driving me nutty. I asked her to go get me some sponged from the shop I did ask nicely and she would not just stood there watching me struggle arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

    Not only this she is snappy and my poor little girl is getting the brunt of it.

    Back to topic not much to be done washing up in to soak and yet again I am hungry.
