    Roxy - thanks for the tip! I investigated and my shower head screws off really easily, its now sitting in a jusg of vinegar, hot water and soda crystals. The gunk that has come out already is really quite disgusting :eek:
    Better out than in hey?

    I know all my vocab for 5 out of my 6 french topics, so I'm feeling a bit better about it! Still nervous, but you know.

    Glad you had a nice day in London everyone!

    Lots of hugs to everyone! Hope you have a lovely day tomorrow.

    I would have thought this was more like a week's job!!!!! you have kept busy honey - well done. has your Mum gone back yet? xx

    toots xx


    Yes toots, Mums gone :( She went home Thursday.

    My friend came round tonight for dinner and some wine. We were then joined by our other friend who lives across the road. They know, but no chat or conversation about it. Just wine giggles and chocolate and that suits me fine.

    Hope your all ok

    ETA: Moonflower - the stars are posted on page one. Pigpen has the first two posts, with the daily lists and the the second post is the list of fliers. The next entry (post 3) is toots, which shows who has earned stars. hth xxx

    Good morning everyone

    Well done on the early morning ironing Kazw impressive ! I've been about level one on the flying this week. At this time of year i find it hard to resist the call of outdoors - I have the garden and an allotment which is a bit silly as I don't really have time but I love it. Work still really busy and stressful - I have to go on a business trip later today icon13.gif. I don't like work invading sundays but doesn't happen often.

    DH has been between contracts for quite while but has an interview next week so smile046.gif

    I've just caught up on the thread - glad everyone had a good time at the meet.

    Morning all

    Emily - have a lovely time at the christening

    I spent most of yesterday gardening so not a huge amount done indoors. Then DH and I had a few glasses of wine and a nice chat so all in all a good day.

    Today I must:
    Find c150 items to fling
    Find my procrastination list and make sure I actually do some of it next week
    Do HHI and at least HHG before the weeds win in the flower beds
    Try out the dry cleaning sheets on DH's interview suit
    Go for a run
