    Emily, don't rush off, have you settled into your new house now?

    Not quite; there's still a lot to do. But we're happy with it.

    Hope everyone is well & welcome newbies/returners. So far today I've showered, done errands, done laundry & given my old washing machine a quick clean as I'm selling it to my friend today. My aims for the rest of the day are to do more laundry & wash up

    Did a HHI, got my lunch on. Sat out bagels for the kids, went to the fridge to get something to put in them, turned around and... kids running away with two dry bagels!!

    so...

    Dishes
    S&S kitchen
    [STRIKE]
    HHI
    [/STRIKE]
    WM, TD and put it away
    Put away ironing
    S&S living room
    Clean TV (can see a DS1 and DS2 hand print)

    Going to have my lunch and see who will give me a free PS3 for changing to their product :D
  • Well I have got towels in the WM, but apart from that I'm sitting here with a bad case of CBA. Absolutely no justification - sun shining (and showing up the dusty bits) OK I am going to shift NOW

    Before I go - anyone live near/know anything about Leeds?
    Think I might have to visit at least once this year. Just how far away from Leeds is 'Leeds' Airport?

    TD filter cleaned... will do the DW & WM when they're next resting.

    Milk & white choc cakes made & in fridge. I'm not sure how the white one will do, as I need to rethink the method - it needs much lower temperatures (this one split, but I managed to mix it back in, and I'll see what its like when I take it out)

    Course booked, and phone call made to my mum about kitchen tables - the one that's the right colour looks as if it may be too heavy for my kitchen. The less 'rustic' one with tapered legs etc may not be a good colour. And I haven't got time to go and see it before the sale finishes at the end of the month :rolleyes: Hopefully she'll be able to work it all out on Monday.

    So... very little actual flying done, but a few bits off the list so far.

    Not sure BUT it used to be called Leeds-Bradford. Might still be.

    Positive vibes for your SIL Sunnygirl

    Great news on the cleaner front Pigpen

    Soappie hope dinner with NN goes well, you are such a lovely caring person :) Been looking into things for you but drawn blanks so far. Some good hole digging there with Toots and her drugs :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Toots thanks for being my 'voice' when I couldn't get here last night :kiss: ewll done on the jobs completed from your list so far ;)

    Triker I didn't know we did hair cutting at the bank! :rotfl: hope they did a good job. Re your card collection, I too keep cards from those who mean anything to me. Every now and again I go through and thin them out. Tended to always keep those from DH and the kids and am SO pleased I do have them now. You see some hoarding is ok ;)

    Sarahshattered thanks for the yellow glow :D

    Greenbee depending on how large the branch of the bank is I would call ahead and book an appointment to open a new account, then you are not kept waiting. They will prob want to see Passport and Drivers licence or council tax bill. With a lot of the big banks you can open current accounts online these days and they post the paperwork to you. Would save a trip to twon just for that ;)

    Rach congrats to your clever DH :D and wow a year already, knew it was sometime soon so congrats again to you both.
