    Evening everyone

    Rach - hope you're feeling better soon. I find a slug of brandy with hot lemon works wonders ;)
    Miss A - do we have to call you gappy now you've decluttered two teeth?

    Carlsberggal - hugs love and welcome back

    Greenbee - I thought about you this morning when I was driving into work - it was carnage out there!

    AnWsMum - Messy church?

    Dusty - deep breaths - I always pack at the last moment!

    As mentioned above, it was carnage on the way to work. Every travel bulletin mentioned another accident and another road closure. At one point it seemed I might be unable to get to work because all the roads on the way there were closing around me. But I got there safe by going slowly and gently.

    It was nice when I got home this evening to have a little bit of light left so I S&S'd the kitchen, put the stew in the oven, loaded the DW and put it on, sorted out washing, put some more washing on and put the BM on. So I feel quite noble having done all that BEFORE turning the computer on!

    DS has one of his loud friends round and they've just bought a bottle of JB from the corner shop. I may have to get stern with them later if they get too noisy.

    But, off to do a bit of ironing

  • Does anyone have one of these that Craftyscholar has so cleverly found on Amazon. I'm tempted, but wasnt' sure if it's too good to be true?

    Dinner done and eaten by all.

    DS3 doing well with the TQs.

    I'm going to do a quick 15 minutes in his room now to see if I can get it done.

    Soappie glad you got to work in the end, I hope there were no fatalities in the accidents, awful about the 2 light aircraft.

    Evening everyone.

    Back home now after doing my meeting and greeting. Also went to walk in centre with DD and she has a chest infection.

    Since coming in Ive put a load of washing in and cleared out the worst drawer in the kitchen in the process of looking for my gas box key.

    Carlsberggirl. Glad you are still here. Hugs.

    Natty Happy Birthday.:bdaycake:

    rach Hugs hope you feel better soon.

    Dusty - I don't think there were any fatalities here this morning because the roads weren't closed long enough. But that is tragic about the two aircraft in Wales - I've only just heard about that.

    Half hour ironing has been done so I'm treating myself to a glass of wine. Venison stew is smelling delish but it has a while to go yet (it's on low).

    Tootles - it depends on which treatments I do, reflexology, facial and pedicure is all pretty much sitting down but hot stone or aromatherapy massage involves a bit more movement. I'm having a trail run on a friend tomorrow to see how it goes so need to get my clinic ready for then! I've emptied the room out and it needs a good clean then set the bed up. As if i'd sit and eat chocolates...that's so not me!!! So have you had a good day my dear?
