    Morning everyone,

    Wasn't about when the mass flylady meet was first announced last night, but I'd definitely be up for it - do you think we'd get a bulk discount on B&B's or hotels? lol (ever moneysaving):p Only joking - I'd go whatever the cost! All of the flyladies I've met so far have been lovely in person, and I'd really like to meet you all. I too am jealous of soappie's flylady tour. Summer is always good for me as it will be the summer holidays, and next summer will be even better, as I'll actually be paid for them!:D

    Off to the gym in a minute (first time in 2 weeks, so hope I don't keel over). Off to my Mum's to get some trousers taken up for Thursday.

    Good news about Thursday is that I got an email from someone in the school yesterday evening, to apologise for not getting back to me on Friday as they had their school fair and it was manic, but that she thinks I'll only be meeting the class for 30 mins so won't need to plan an activity - she'll confirm tomorrow though. :j

    Right, really must get going or I won't get a token for the class.

    Hugs to everyone!

    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    I think we're going to Stapeley water Gardens today as they are having birthday celebrations for the Palms so they have bouncy castles, etc there today.

    I've got someone comeing to pick up DD's old bike later so that'll be another thing gone.

    I've finished the ironing so there's just the stuff on the line now.

    Have a good day all

    Toots - I am also useless with words but wanted to say how sorry I am about your news. As with everyone else anything on the wish lish that needs help please do just shout up.

    JulieJim - Have a good time at Stapely, I haven't been for years but I bet my boys would love it. After all my trips to Liverpool and back in the last few weeks the last thing I want to do is drive down the A50 again though.

    Soappie - J22 of the M1 here - is it me or are you having a cup of tea every 30 minutes? Do you think you could make a book out of it - one of those round Ireland with a fridge types?

    Forgot to say Toots - I have finished the MBR and the BR so full five stars for me please. Really pleased I got this done, didn't seem likely with all the 'work' work I had on this week.

    Well as I am unlikely ever to get five stars maybe I should try for five hearts instead.
    Pouring with rain overnight and this morning, but remaining two jobs are inside so no excuse :o

    1. Find pedometer, realise battery has died, get new battery :D
    2. Finish setting up (not so) new camera
    3. Find instructions and set up (definitely not new) DAB radio
    4. Paint new fence DONE:D
    5. Do something/anything in garden - removed two branches from next door's lilac which had grown up between guttering and garage without having to ask for help:T DONE :D

    OK pill taken, breakfast scoffed, need to shift myself and shower and dress.
