    Congratulations Sexymouse!!!

    soappie & penpen - I'm glad it wasn't a hallucination brought on by the heat!

    Freecycler was late, but I left the stuff outside and she appears to have collected it. I've got takers for some more bits, including loads of bits of wood :confused: so I need to arrange for those to be picked up tomorrow.

    Went to the tip - which has changed :rolleyes: we used to have a shed for paint. Now gloss has to go in the chemical shed (which they have to unlock... of course, there was no one there (so I left it outside with all the chemicals everyone else had stacked up there) and the emulsion just goes into landfill. Clearly I need to find somewhere else for paint disposal in future.

    FFP - I hope your OH deals with DS1 appropriately. Maybe you should have a break on your own sometime? You could visit flyladies :D

    No one in their right mind would have me. Added to by the fact that I don't have a babysitter due to DS1. I'm the only one who can deal with DS1 I say deal more prepared to tear my hair out. Doubt it very much OH will do anything to be honest I'm always left dealing with it. I'm not doing it this time though. I keep trying but don't get any help so I give up.
