    Good morning all, hope all is well in fly land .
    Need to play catch up today but I wondered if anyone knew where I have left my camera??
    When we went to the Harry Potter house last week, I took pics with my phone and they haven't saved so need to find the camera to take some more. I last used it when there was all the snow( I think, cause they are the last pics I put onto the computer....), off to keep looking and get DD ready for school....This will go through when I get a blooming connection.....

    IT'S OK, i FOUND IT, IN A HANDBAG AT THE BOTTOM OF THE STAIRS....A reminder to do the extras!!!!!!

    Well I'm stuck at home this morning waiting for the freezer repair man so I've been trying to make the house look presentable - it wasn't too bad but it still needed work.
    Just hope he can fix it cos it's one of the big american side by side fredge freezers and I adore the type. If it's to go to refridgeration heaven I'll have to find the cash to replace it as I con't cope with the little integrated one. (we've been using it as a fizz and wine fridge for years:rotfl:)

    Anyway, coffee finished so , off to get more done while I have the chance.

    Hugs to all who need them.
