    Fortunately someone alerted me to the thread because as you know I am not a regular here and dont have that much intention of being one quote]
    It seems the mischief maker has been at work again. Shades of Candlegate?

    Shades of Candlegate indeed. I'm certain it's none of our regular posters but I guess we never know how many people read and don't post. Particularly after Candlegate.

    Not as shocked as I was when I did the googling first thing this morning - I was simply looking for an image of a pie to link to for Dusty. I really wasn't expecting that!

    I have absolutely no idea what all this pie talk is about. Really confused.

    Flylady Southern Meet - Saturday 4th April

    (all flyladies and gents welcome)

    The plan is to meet at The Foresters Arms in Brockenhurst (thanks to soappie for suggesting it!)

    http://www.newforestonline.biz/forestersarms/

    Brockenhurst is less than 15 minutes from Southampton on the train, so it's not far and will be easier for those driving to park!

    I aim to be there around 12:30; if you could give me an idea of when you will be arriving, that would be great! I will decide what I'm going to wear and let you know and will also PM my mobile number to confirmed people. Mind you, I think doggy will be the easiest to recognise - make sure you have a good look at soappie's avatar before you leave!

    Hope this is ok for everyone - looking forward to meeting you all.

    So far, confirmed peeps are

    soappie (and doggy), sexymouse, greenbee, Jo (and DS) and me! with flower and L-L possible coming.

    Everyone is welcome, so please let me know if you want to join us!

    Sorry Greenbee, don't think I'll be able to do earth hour here completely. But I will turn as many lights off as is safe. Dinner will be about ready to serve by then (boy, it's smelling good!)

    rosepink/LL A client had a aggressive episode and I was holding her and trying to calm her. My arms and legs are aching and have a couple of bruises and a bite. It doesnt happen often and Im used to it.

    Will have to remember about the clocks going forward. I usually change the clocks when I go to bed.

    Have just decluttered some rice pudding. yum.

    Ah greenbee just seen your post about Earth Hour. Had been wondering what time it was.

    boddy big hugs - hope the aches go away soon and you are alright.
    LadyL well just you stop being a Mum for today and tomorrow and REST!!!!!!!!!!!! :rotfl: :rotfl: and you are only allowed to do 5 bits of ironing a day - if you iron then you are not allowed to hoover - if you hoover then you are not allowed to do anything else!!!!!! And get that strapping DS to empty the WM and hang it out with your supervision of course!!:rotfl: :rotfl:
    As for the driving - can i have your DH's mobile number so I can text him to take the keys away from you!! Only 1 mile driving - no further do you hear - its for your own good!
    greenbee I have my candles ready!

  • Greenbee I will join, with a marketing strategy like that, you can't lose!!
    buuuuttt, wouldn't it attract more attention if everyone turned everything on rather than off at the same time? Can't help thinking attention of politicians would come more readily to an overload of the national grid!?
    Yes, I do realise this would increase CO2 production rather than decrease it, but I am a bit of a globalwarmingdenier ssshhhh!
