Congratulations to everyone who managed to get up at a sensible time this morning and get things done! I've just got up and now need to walk to the shop as I have no yogurt for breakfast. Hopefully the rain will hold off until I get back. It's very windy today too, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will be a good drying day as I have at least four, possibly five, loads of washing to do!

In fact, I think i'd better put one in before I set off for the shop!

Off to get dressed and get going... see you all later

Morning all

Been catching up with the thread since yesterday morning, nearly up to date but have to go for swimming lessons in a mo.

Loving the house descriptions, thanks for sharing Ours is a 4 bed detached which was a new build when we bought it 10 years ago. Hall, Lounge, dining room, cloakroom, kitchen, utility and integral garage on ground floor. Stairs that twist back on themselves lead to big landing, two double bedrooms, master with ensuite, 2 singles (one a large and the other not quite as small as a box room but small!) family bathroom. Open plan lawn to the front and good size (for a modern house) enclosed garden to the back. We spent ages looking for the right house when we bought. We wanted one which was big enough for kids plus we did not want to have to move again. The day we moved in it felt like we had come home (which is now making me cry!)

And with that I am off, catch you all later :wave:
