    Okay HHC I

    Put washing on the line
    Reloaded WM
    Washed more dishes - all done now
    Made sandwich for DD
    Sorted Easter eggs out - the kids have loads - they'll have to share them with me.:D

    That's about it I think.

    I need to get dressed now - I have a nice fireman coming to see me this afternoon to do a safety check and DD is going on a night out with DH so I need to make sure she's got everything.

    Thanks Valli, Julie, Hex, Vanilla and Mozzy :wave: It's really good. :j

    Dusty hope those boys of yours feel much better really soon. Grim to feel rotten in the holidays. ~~~~~healing vibes~~~~~

    Grateful Stardrops solution is fantastic for windows, or Lidl's window cleaner is fab too. Good luck.

    Right, best wash my carcass and get ready. My Brother is coming to take us all to Dartmoor to do some rock climbing with DD1 and DD2 ....DD3 will no doubt attempt a bit, she like climbing too! My Brother is far too into climbing, :rolleyes: so has all the gear, the girls LOVE IT too, and go to the climbing wall at home. It make me really proud to see them risk assessing a rock face to see whether they should climb or not! ( age 12 and 9 ) :D proud mummy!

    By the way.... M2MG.... DD2 sends special congratulations to you on the birth of your new baby girl. :)

    ETA : WTG LilySue :j

    And hope you feel better soon FFP :(
