    Morning all

    I thought of you at 9pm toots, shame I wasn't at home to join in properly!

    Living room should be easy tonight, it's done, but I will do the hall and stairs which need finishing.

    AnW thanks for the ING reference, I thought you had to phone them. All the money is out of there so I just want to close the account for the sake of ease.

    greenbee - nothing fits me either, full on diet this week - I most lose a few lb before we go away.

    Better go for my train, have a good day all

    Morning flyers

    Raining here too but it is easing of a bit. Hope the sun comes out later as the soil will be soft enough for me to earth up the pots. The corn I planted out earlier will be nicely watered in.

    I really wonder how much revision DS1 will do today, he has turned laziness and avoiding doing it into an art form.

    DS3 still asleep.

    Time for a cuppa - and I want my kitchen to stay tidy/clean all week so I'll be getting it ship shape.

    Morning everyone.

    I think i am going to continue working on the Monday list until i get a star, then move onto Tuesday when it is all completed. Makes sense to me anyway. I want a star this week.

    I managed to start the day by making a mess. I did the hair dye allergy test yesterday as described. Over night it developed really well. It has left black marks all over my pillow case. Grrr. Should have thought about it really, but i didn't as the cream that went on my neck wasn't coloured, and i didn't notice it being dark before i went to bed, Wonder if it became darker as my skin got hotter. Good job its quite old bedding.

    kazmeister, toots look - it's getting smaller and i'm behaving and not letting the list get too big. ;)

    rosepink i hope the world seems a bit brighter this morning for you. Lots of rest to let your brain cope. I have been there and trust me, it does get better. Have you tried a councellor?

    2. Wipe down paintwork/sideboards/units in dining room

    Dusty ~ sometimes I think that if my ds1 put half the effort into doing things that he puts into avoiding doing them, he'd be a world beater!

    Valli ~ no not a red head, although my sister is and I am married to one :D....I had black hair, which is now liberally streaked with white!

    Kaz ~ I can do Saturdays, or in the week (but don't want to eat into your holiday time when you have it.) We'll have to look out for Vivw when she comes online and see when she's free.

    Rosepink ~ are you enjoying the Gently series? I've heard you mention it before, and thought I might as well confess that my uncle wrote the series ( confess because I personally don't enjoy the books at all:o )

    Think I over did it on the allotment yesterday, bits of me ache, so I'm doing my limbering up exercises with a cup of tea at the moment.........probably a good job that it is pouring with rain right now, it will make me concentrate on the house rather than outside.

    Valli - that thread about the post - you're right it is very cross making!

    We've had heavy rain overnight but it appears to be clearing up now. Just as well - DD is off to Glyndebourne today!

    I have an easy flying day today - I'll remove what's already been done in the last couple of days :D Then I'm going to jump in the bath and get on with the day.
