    Hiya everyone
    Tootles - hugs to you. Yes it's me who has the daffodil garden of remembrance. The shoots are appearing now so it makes me think of the hospice a lot especially as i'm not there at the moment. I'm aiming to start back after Easter though and can't wait!! Daft cat came down earlier demanding to be fed so I think she's for this world for a while longer!!! She's a greedy piglet so as long as she eats I know she's ok!!
    Greenbee - the cake sale sounds fab...well done!

    Soappie - I am not amused...actually I am but I don't intend to visit Ik** on Mother's day this year. Not a chance!!!

    I have just decluttered two tin cans, a cigarrete packet, a packet of sugar (?), two empty packets of crisps and a half eaten pear from Stripes mouth. Either she's trying to be a flypuppy and tidying up the outside world or she's doing an impression of a vacuum cleaner!! The area is looking tidier though as I put it all in the bin when she 'gives' it to me!

    I am so tired...just two loads for the washing machine now and then i'm done. Apart from decluttering a large glass of vino and a chocolate bar of course!

    :eek:Don't want to put it on there as someone always seems to have a pop at you if someone else has already posted it:eek: (boy there's one or two on there that have anger management issues or are just plain rude)
