Yes, there is snow but the roads are just about clear but very slushy. And compared with what I drove through for the first 6 miles, it's nothing!I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

mOzzy - I'm further west (between basingstoke & newbury)... and according to the bbc, the white stuff currently falling out of the sky is 'light rain'
Would anyone have a use for around 100 used A4 envelopes that can't be recycled because they're made of translucent yellow tracing-type paper? I wondered whether they might be useful for art/craft projects. I don't like the idea of just chucking them in the bin!0 -

YES, well done! Fantastic! FIL has all my stuff that I want to ebay, a whole black bin bag full of clothes! He is going to take the pics cos I hate doing that, then I am going to list them (and lots of his stuff) and take it all to the PO (as he hates doing that) and we are going to split the profits. I must remind him, we decided to do this in November! I have a feeling he is discovering he hates photographing ladies clothes! That will more than pay for the curtains, and extra fabric to lengthen them.
My list for today:
Tidy sofa - moved the stuff on to an armchair, does that count? Now moved to bed so I could stand on armchair to try out curtains
Wash up – one sinkful done, one and a bit to go, including stuff on hob, which is now on clean worktop ready to be washed next
Tidy LR floor - moved half the stuff onto the bed so I could get to the armchair to clear it so I could stand on it to try out the curtains
Tidy sofaside table
Heel balm on heels AM PM
Clean out cold bag – spilt cream in it and a creamy sock from where I missed the wash basket!
[STRIKE]Nag[/STRIKE] Ask FIL how he is getting on with ebay photos

Have done loads! I think I just did my first HHC without realising! I have also cleaned the phone because DH phoned when I was cleaning kitchen and I realised how dirty it was.
Going for a nap now, but might need to tidy some of the stuff that's on the bed so I can get into it!"Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."
