    afternoon everyone...im knackered!
    house is a tip and I really need to get into a routine. My house is full of fluff and dust and most of it is down to Hairy DH..yuk. We have laminate downstairs and its like the tumble weed passing by when you pull out the sofas (every other day or so I hoover it)
    I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....
    Finally Debt Free...

    Noooooooooooo - if you clean the last room there will be nothing to compare the rest of the house to and we all know you can't appreciate the good things without experiencing the not so good:p

    Now get that bath running (I seem to recall you got some bubble bath for Crimbo?), chill a glass for the champers and go relax!

    Consider me gone! :j
    Thanks for your virtual help with the cleaning Luc. It's better with someone to talk to!
  • afternoon all! finally got home and got caught up.

    I was a bit (ok, a lot) of a swot and I was in the Brownies and Guides. I was Sixer of the Elves and Patrol Leader of the Daffodils. I was badge obsessed and was determined to get my Queen's Guide, but got to the third level (red trefoil?) and then left. I had a penapl in Singapore who was in the Guides there and I used to read my Guide handbook. A lot. :o God, I was sad as a 12 year old :rotfl:

    We're Brownie Guides, we're Brownie Guides, we're here to lend a hand! La la la.....:D ......much skipping to form into a circle around the mushroom. :D:o

    I am also a guide leader, was in Pixies when in Brownies. But i went into Venture scouts instead of Rangers when i left guides..did far more interesting stuff there;) I had loads of badges too...:rotfl:
    Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
    Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:

    there's a cure... don't pull out sofas!

    y'know the new pet ferret.. well not new, but new pet! well it keeps disappearing under the sofas and coming out covered in tons of fluff!!

    so there it is! new cleaning solution! ferret dusters for those hard to reach places!!!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    No problem. And for the record I'll be indulging in a nice bubblebath tonight too:D

    BTW - if I'm in the bath and my waters break will I notice?

    I was a Brownie but never wanted to go to Guides, I'd discovered boys by then :D My first group was terrible though, the leaders would just sit around smoking and let us all run riot :rotfl:
