Not posted for a while but having more or less kept up with reading about all your antics :rolleyes:
Big list and it won't all get done before OH comes home on Mon eve but majority needs to be done as I've made a huge mess over the last few days with a scattergun approach to sorting and re-arranging. Not going for stars as I'm unlikely to clean any windows so would have failed, hence my own list.

Ooooh now this is spooky, spooky, twilight zone, seven degrees of separation stuff.... :eek:

It was a Trident that crashed just after take off from Heathrow in 1972. My ExH1 (father of my DS) was fishing near Staines at the time of the crash. It was only through luck that they decided to fish at a different lake to the one they normally did. Otherwise they have been in the thick of it all.

ExH1 is taking DS on a fishing trip next saturday.....

Now, I'm the first to admit that I'm a bit woo and a bit waarr about coincidences, but... that's just too much Soappie.

You've been arbitrarily looking at pictures, discover one of a cockpit, post it out of curiosity, discover it's a picture of a plane that crashed into a lake your Exh would normally have been fishing in, but randomly he chose to fish somewhere else!!! I wouldn't be letting your DS go fishing next weekend!!! :eek::eek::eek::eek:

But I did start by saying I that I'm a sucker for a good coincidence!
