    No, you just need registration and log book - it's the number about halfway down the front page (think they are in 3 blocks of 4 but click on the question mark and it tells you) I didn't have my renewal but did it from that yesterday... ;)

    Right, I am REALLY going to do bathroom now...

    But she can't find her log book:o

    dodgy hug for me:grouphug: - it would've been my dad's birthday today - he passed away last July - I'm taking my mum to put some flowers out for him this morning so not going to church, which is a bit of a relief as the ladies there are so kind and caring (they really mother me, i'm the youngest adult), that they'll have me in pieces iyswim.

    Can't get myself motivated for flying this morning although the td is on, but last night i tidied everywhere including the cupboard with all the bedlinen and towels in - they're all lined up like soldiers and God help the child that pulls a towel from the bottom and leaves the rest in a mess!

    Diva - i did a virtual candle too, what a great idea.

    take care all

    Ahhh, I thought it was just her reminder she couldn't find. She can do it over the phone then and she won't need the vim number, just her registration - 0870 850 4444 - but they are not open until tomorrow...

    I've won £10 on the lottery - don't normally have a go but decided to have a lucky dip last night when I went to the Co-op.

    Morning everyone,

    Forgot to say last night (I think) that you've done a fab job with the tiling soappie, and you've got a son you can be proud of there. Hope if I have children I have some that are as thoughtful as he is. Your doogie is soooo cute! Even OH who isn't a dog-lover agreed.

    LadyLiberty - I'm very serious about the offer of help. After hearing how mudbath wasn't allowed to move about very much, I thought you could do with the help if DH is at work. It would be a pleasure and would also stop me from going into student mode and sleeping all day throughout half-term. It's not as though you're far away, and I'll be doing my own food shops etc anyway so can do extra at the same time. I'll PM you my mobile number just in case.

    Congratulations Julie - maybe I should have a go - that's 2 flyladies in as many weeks that have won something now.

    Glad to hear that some of the old faces from last year are coming back again. Welcome home guys!

    I'm off to make some soup in a minute cos OH and I plan to walk along the canal today and then come back home for soup to warm up again. We haven't been on a walk together for ages and we want to try and get out this morning before it becomes too cold.

    Will do some flying in the kitchen at the same time as making the soup.

    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    gtx - thoughts are with you today
    Diva - and continuing thoughts for you too
    JulieJ - well done on your win - or what is they say on the online bingo sites? WDW
    SexyM - thank you. It's taken him 28 years to get to that point and he still managed to make me cry - but this time for a different reason. He went through some terribly dark times in his teens....

    I have tidied up as best I can and done the washing up from the stir fry last night. (Was too tired to do it then!) I've also depooped the back garden. I've discovered there's a Wickes on the way to the dump which has a heavy duty manual floor tile cutter so that'll be nicely convenient. I'm just waiting for the bread to finish (about another 25 mins) then I'm off out to the dump

    Morning all,

    While you're all starting your Sunday mine's nearly over 1035pm and just got out of the bath shattered. No bloomin wonder, while you were all sleeping I did ALL this.

    Weekend List
    A list for everyone to join in!!

    [strike]Collect ALL the smelly laundry from around the house! [/strike]Did this yesterday, one lousy t-shirt left that didn't go with anything else.
    [strike]Clean out the car! [/strike]Woohoo that was a biggie!
    Sort through shoe cupboard. (Wimped out in this)
    [strike]Make sure lunch boxes/shoes etc are ready for Monday[/strike]
    [strike]HHI[/strike] x 2
    Update finances spreadsheets/HH-filing (too late can't face it)

    Only silly me didn't realise this was the list for the WHOLE weekend, doh! I did ALL this today, no wonder I am bushed. I did a load of stuff yesterday, including half an hour of ironing. It feels gooood though, to see there is some light at the end of the tunnel and my ironing problem has nearly vanished. :T

    Morning lovelies! :wave:

    I've done me neck in....it's one of those 'creak' things and I can't move left or right or up or down :D not gonna let it stop me though there's Home Bargains on the cards today - haven't been for ages, and a trip to Mr M's in Jarrow whilst were there for cheap bread and noodles. House is ok-ish so a bit of pottering throughout the day will sort out any bits that need doing.

    Nicki well done on your budget, you've come on leaps and bounds since this time last year, you should be proud of yourself :T x

    Off to put some jeans on cause these thin things I've got on just wont cut it in this weather, it looks like snow - boo hoo!
