    Morning!

    Hope you are all well and happy on this lovely morning

    I'm waiting for a freecycler to collect a sleeping bag and then taking the dog for stripping then I really will take my bin bags to the charity shop.

    Then a quick mooch around £land collect dog, make a few important phonecalls and then crack on with gardening list and then on to the flying lists later on tonight when masterchef is on I think!

    Thrifty - good luck with the house sale
    Lady L - have a cracking time at Glastonbury!

    Probably true:D...but I suspect the real joy she gets about her complaints and woes is being able to share them with others, so good on you for visiting and listening.

    Ooh nice site! The only trouble with those kinds of crafty blogs is that I end up imagining what the things would look like if I made them, I can just see my soggy house number with peeling letters that I would have to tell people was made by my children..................

    Ahh well, no more excuses for sitting on my bottom, everyone has left for work or school so I can get in the shower and start my day......
