    Had a lovely coffee (well flavoured water for me as I was so hot - long story, but involved missing a bus and being late) and cake with LadyLiberty, who is really lovely, and we chatted away for ages. Hopefully we're going to meet up again soon during the holidays, as we fancied a trip down to Gunwharf in Portsmouth - if you're free Froddy, we thought you'd like to join us too?

    Afternoon All

    Feelings mutual Sexymouse :A we had a lovely time, hope to see you soon. Valli, we even looked at some pegs in Lakeland ;)

    The bread sounds yummy, I decided on Toad in the Hole for tonight :D

    The washing has dried, & I have caught up on the ironing.

    Going to list a few more ebay things now.

    Hugs to all

    :hello: Hi everyone. Hope you all had a lovely weekend, whatever you were doing! All of Monday's list done earlier Toots :D:j:D My daughter's fairy party went well, and we had a great day! (Thanks for all the suggestions for where to get some chalk for the Fairy Land sign. I popped into dd's school and her teacher kindly gave me some!) Mum has come up to see us today. She lives quite a long way from us now, but she has come up for my daughter's actual birthday (which is today) and to celebrate news of the pregnancy! Feeling a bit sick and tired, but we have had a good day, and how ever old you are, it is always nice to have your Mum looking after you for a bit! She has just taken the children to the park (Mum bought a bike for dd's birthday, so she could not wait to try it out!) Busy week getting ready for Easter, so I'm in again all week. Thanks Pigpen and Toots! Lots of love to you all. Have a nice evening xxx

    Well I can see some of the floor in my bedroom but I can't actually see the bed! Is that a problem do you think?

    Just going to have a look what to do with the leftover chicken for tonight's tea now.

    Hi everyonehellowave.gif
    Dailies all done washing put away, resorted to putting the socks in a bag and hanging them in the wardrobe! Found the cushion covers I have been looking for at the bottom of the washing basket:jnow washed, dryed and on!
    everyone sitting down? yes good, I did a HHI:eek: All clothes for hospital visit tonight (OH and DS1 only DS2 and DD too young to be allowed in)done and something for everyone for tomorrow too.

    Toots will do my blinds tomorrow if OH will take them down for me.
    Pigpen HSwow1.gifHS92836dancingkawaiianimals.gif Well done

    DS2 won second prize at his club this morning with his colouring picture. He also won sweets and a ruler for answering questions, so he's a happy boy. They made palm branches for waving and in the words of DS2 they sang lasagne while waving them:rotfl::rotfl:

    Off for a look at the washing line thread I'm needing a new one see what I can learn!!!!!!!!!!!
