Nice colour Quillion
I did DS's in a similar (if not the same) colour last summer - for the life of me I can't remember what colour but it will have been a Dulux - I like their paint.
Reminds me of when, with the help of my mum, I did a full house decorate room by room - we'd lived here ages and HE had done bog all (2005 it was)
About time I did some more decorating...Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily Dickinson

I fancied a virus instead of a bacteria just for a change..
The littlies lists will be after the proper list so easily left off and you can have your star without it being completed.. But Princess Piper and the SW's and a lot of other littlies were all so very helpful last time they got special stars of their own so I thought they might like that again!LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -

Pigpen - I take my hat off to you, I don't know how you are managing to cope with your assignments, looking after your family, your various ailments & then glandular fever on top. I only had gf & for a month all I did was sleep & occasionally woke up for food (great for weight loss). I also developed yellow jaundice which can also go hand in hand with the gf, the downside to that is no alcohol for 6 months). Please take care & try to rest where possible, I know that is an impossibility but you need to look after yourself for the sake of the kids.'Money and good health is coming easily to Flypeople'0

Thanks for that.. not.. I really need jaundice too!!!!! The no alcohol I can do!.. but while the Oriental look is very beautiful, it is not something that will look appealling on me!..LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -

help yourself!!
I have had them cleaning 2 of the downstairs rooms today and tomorrow while I have a wakeful hour or 2 they can get another one done!
I also had the laundry brought down from the bathroom and my 8 year old was given a binbag and told to empty the bins in the bathroom and loo which were full to the brim with her pi$$y nappies and smelled nasty!
Tomorrows job has to be the back room as I want the carpet up (cos the cat keeps pi$$ing on it) to replace it with lino at some point in the next month.. wonder if it could handle a slop of paint too... :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
