He's gorgeous Jenny
I've fetched DH's cards and got air in my tyres but didn't fetch petrol. DH isn't going to be back until about 8ish so the plans for going out for tea are out of the window. I've just put DS's tea in the oven - he wanted pizza but I don't know what I'm going to have. I suppose I ought to wrap DH's prezzies really.NST #10 Steps 7K 2/30 10K 2/12 5 a day 3/30 NSD 0/20

Doesn't everybody?
(ooh she doesn't know about me :rotfl:)
I flung a bumblebee out - after it was walking up my arm and I screamed (cos it made me jump) - was wondering though - do they sting?
My Mum does, and socks, pants, knickers, bras, etc... towels too, AND fitted sheets - who irons those? (APART from Valli... :rotfl::rotfl:)
Yes, bumblebees sting, but only if provoked, as it more often than not kills them (their sting is barbed and when it goes in you, it hooks in and it rips their insides out... harsh!) so they are usually OK, just never sit on one! :eek:
Jennybee - your monkey is lovely, really cute...
OK, flying, hubby is making spag bol for dinner (I love it when he's home...) and I have done quite a few extras today too...

Evening all, not read anything yet.
No washing done, no cleaning! I've been out all day and I'm sooooo tired now, but it was fun.
I'm so glad I did extra yesterday so I could skive off today but I will start again tomorrow!
Off to catch up a bit before I start cooking.0 -
