    Whereabouts in the country are you? I thought most places had snow
    We don't need to do it perfectly - good enough is exactly that GOOD ENOUGH.

    Its snowing a lot here,
    So far I have managed to do as much washing as I can, I have run out of room for it to dry now.
    Airer full Radiators full TD on for towels,

    Finished my batch bake,some for now,some for freezer.
    Decided on tea,Fish,new pots,peas and sweetcorn chicken of some kind for DS1 as he is allergic to fish.
    Washed all baking and breakfast pots
    Put up new curtains in LR these are lined and a lot thicker so should be warmer in the room now hopefully.


    Need to put clothes away, S&S LR hoover and HHI me thinks.

    Candle burning for Diva and friend,hope that is good news.
    Wonder if my middlies will get sent home early?

    Greenbee - from an eco point of view which is best - 60 short wash with non bio v longer 40 wash with bio (both ecover)?

    The only way to work this out is by using a plug-in electricity monitor to work out which one uses the most electricity. If you have a cold-fill only machine, it'll definitely be the lower temp wash, but if it has both hot and cold fill, then its more difficult to work out...

    Hello
    Made it back from work safely. Had a few skids and slides in the van so at least this morning was a little more interesting than normal. :D

    toochoosey - The snow won't be long. It started here at about 7.15am this morning just as I was leaving for work. I'm not that far from you so I reckon you'll have some this afternoon.

    hex - I emailed you the other day. Did you get it?

    Toots - Yes I'm still after L. It's the last one I need. I've read from A up to and still on F at the moment. Due to start G probably tomorrow at this rate.;) There is an L on ebay at the moment that ends in a couple of days. If you find one before Wednesday morning let me know and I won't bid on the ebay one. It's so sweet and kind of you to remember and think of little old me. Thank you.

    Off to find a list and attempt a bit of fluttering.
