    Evening all :wave:

    Happy Birthday Michelle xx

    toots - 83 things? WTG!!

    Dusty - hope DS3 is better. Another thing that you probably know about is local honey. I am going to give that a try this year and see how I go. Easier said than done to track it down I think.

    Clarissa - another request for bigger font and also darker type please. I am struggling to read your posts and I dont like missing anything ;)

    Dining room floor has been mopped. Just need to finish off the kitchen and then time for bed I think.

    Night night flypeople xx

    Sick of using coffee to propel myself through long days after 5/6 hours kip.

    Also read in Glamour about lasses getting more sleep and losing 10 pounds.

    I don't really need to but scary what a big diff it can make to your body.

    SSL thanks for that - I always buy hertforshire honey - I can get one which is from just a few streets away sometimes. Trouble is DS3 doesn't like honey - he has had cake today with it in but not sure if it is still effective if it has been cooked?

    I read that too Princess Jane - but was ill with an inner ear infection (basically vertigo) and got used to sleeping during the day for the last 3 weeks so now finding it hard to get back into a routine. Once back at work (teacher) after the hols I am going to give it a go.
    Proud to be dealing with my debts
