    top news Valli :T

    Greenbee - weather's picking up now here so no need for me to head inland

    Weather is getting a bit better now. The humidity has dropped by about 14% since first thing this morning and a breeze has sprung up - though it's still v. warm I feel better.

    Forgot to say well done getting the interview valli, good luck xx
    CBG, Hugs hun xx
    I have S+S'd the kitchen, ironed a few bits, put some clothes on the line, cleaned up the back garden and had a shower. Need to hoover round downstairs, wash dishes, pack the car and we'll be good to go, just the thought of driving for 2 hours is offputting. If I had got up earlier and cracked on we would be nearly there by now....just hoping the traffic's not too bad xx

    Glad the team are in place and hope they get OH back on track real soon. Glad your brother is ok.

    Been flying hard all morning but no stars to claim as no lists finished yet. Time for a list update and much needed lunch.

    jinky- it isn't I know compared to some, but she knows I hate clutter and she knows I've also fallen/walked into thin air down the stairs and nearly killed myself - new chrome elbow/nearly losing eye/broken ribs etc, so you'd think she'd try a bit harder. DH moved most of it from the landing, for that very reason. She's 19 for god's sake and should show some respect surely??

    Sorry, I'm getting it out of all proportion arn't I? Will have serious words with myself. Sorry xx
    :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
    She's 19???
    That is ridiculous - I had assumed 13 (and was thinking I am getting old - would never have got away with that)

    She's supposed to be an adult !!!!!!.

    Feel free to rant - and anything else that might help.

    Would it help if DH explained why he had cleared the landing?

    Vanilla - so glad things seem to be getting done. Poor brother, must of really shook him up. You've also made me put up and shut up about my trivial goings on, nothing compared to you and yours. Hugs xx
    Valli - so really good, good luck vibes for interview, let us know when it will be x

    Thanks for good wishes and congrats - it's the 13th! And I have bravely told my mum - since it means leaving what I do now and went to uni to do if I get it. As she said though it's my life.
    I haven't got it yet though! LOL
