EssHe... if you have been so good and caught up on everything else the airing cupboard will have lots of time spent on it!! lol

But I might never reappear - the airing cupboard is scary!!! Actually, most of its problem is because it's small, with limited space - so things have to be "piled in" rather......

for those who havent heard this then close your eyes and enjoy for those of you who have then enjoy again

I'll let you buy shares in one of my chickens, like Lloyds bank shares only these shares are productive.:D

Flower - I had a greenhouse (reduced to £165 in BnQ this time last year) and some manure for my birthday last year. I know how to live don't I?

Take care OddJob, hope the leg feels better soon and that you can sleep all night... :A

Well, the ironing board is still up in the front room and there is more to iron, but my laptop is on it at the moment as I am using it as a desk... :rotfl:

Pigpen - you really are psychic!!! My bedroom is a mess, everything thrown in there at the moment and DS has nearly done his room today, but needs to finish all the things you have mentioned... I will show him so it's not only me nagging...:D :rotfl:

My Macaw this week is…
To do all my extras (including EBaying) as some of them have been on there for weeks…

I like the name Twinkly Tuesday though I'm sure it sounds better than it will feel!

I did okay today. I wanted to do more but I've done plenty that wasn't on the list (I should have put it on to make myself look better, LOL! so I should be pleased with myself.)Going to bring in the bargain fridge freezer I just bought, have a glass of vino and H says he will cook dinner. If I've picked my jaw up off the floor by the end of dinner I am going to wash up!
