    Hi guys :wave:

    Sunnygirl My condolences ((((((((((hugs))))))) must have been such a shock for you :(
    Lil_me 'cough up' vibes coming your way.
    L L take it easy, plenty of rest x
    newly something chick sorry about the name I've the memory of a goldfish, you asked about shower screens, at work we use window cleaner to polish them off after they've been cleaned, problem is some are too far gone to ever get see through again, not sure if yours is but it's worth a try HTH

    Teenie not in so the list hasn't been done so that's the first thing I'm gonna have to do, trouble is it's all the 'orrible stuff - emptying the DW and reloading it, setting up the TD etc etc amen, oh well it;s still gotta be done.

    Mudders I'll be scrubbing that wall like there's no tomorrow cause I just had another look at it and it's disgusting, and so is the door next to it, and me a cleaner :rolleyes: :o I'm also in the Yankee candle fan club, I buy the jars but DD1 uses the tarts, they're lovely and nothing comes close to them :j

    list:-
    empty DW
    reload DW
    good scrub of kitchen inc. wall
    set up TD
    load TD x 2
    peel spuds for tea
    get Henry out the boot of car
    use it on the downstairs floors

    best get to it.....

    ETA oh and I spent £18 in Morissons, very expensive bread they have in there *tuts @ self*
  • Thanks for the candle site it is lovely. I lit a candle for my mum who has been fighting cancer on and off for 4 years. She is critical in hospital at the moment. Sending lots of positive vibes to the others that need it on that site too.
    Anyway i have just tried out my new hover ( henry ) and i love it. The carpet looks 10x better already.
    Thankyou for the advise about stardrops on the shower doors i will give that a go ( need to buy some 1st as never used it )
    Just going to put tea on and then hoover bedroom

    so, finally back from shopping.
    i also had to make a dtour to softplay because i left my card there :eek: - i've put it down for a tab and then had to rush with 2 cranky kids in tow :o
    well, i've got it - then went shopping - then made another dtour to kids nursery to get the kids lunchboxes (we forgot them there yesterday :o )
    but my neighbour who works there has taken them home already - so ds knocked on her door and we've got them now - just in time to make them again for tmrw :D

    just put the shopping away - and oh is seriously helpful atm :T
    i've looked up toilets earlier because ours has a crack and i don't trust it that much longer. he kept searching online and found a rather good deal :j
    but now he's overdoing it and wants to redo the whole bathroom :D (we have one of them rather unstylish avocado coloured 70s suites :confused: )

    i need to start thinking about dinner (fajita tonight) - but all i want to do is just to sit down .....

    Just wanted to pop in and say 'goodbye'. I'm not going to be posting on this thread any more but I will check on the first post every day to see what needs doing - flying has really helped keep my house in order, and it's now a quick job to keep it there. It's nice to have 'chatted' to you all, but I'm finding I'm spending too much time on here!:D
