    Elf don't you just love them;). It sounds like something DS2 would do although actually i remember Ds1 doing it when he was about 3 and he poured the entire contents of about 5 bottles of paint over my kitchen carpet at 5 am :mad:.

    The swaps thing on facebook is a thread in the flylady group where you can swap things with other people it's a bit like freecycle but flylady style.

    Ooooh ouch - thankfully he didnt manage to empty the bottles. He started to pour it into the right little dish but slightly misjudged it and poured it over the side. Bless him he's only 2.5 - serves me right for leaving him in his room (playing quietly is always suspicious) while I did dinner :rotfl:

    pigpen, Toots, soappie, Jo and everyone else who is out gallavanting - have a lovely day :D

    ETA Toots - sorry you didn't get you manicure, but I'm pleased you've had a good day and, with the vouchers, you should now be able to have an even better pamper session another day

    Tilli-Tot - welcome back

    SS - glad you like the new room

    sexymouse - glad the new school seems good; don't forget about all the Tudor links in Pompey will you? ;)

    AnW - hugs

    Triker - hugs; hope you can get something sorted


    For those of you who were interested, it appears that no-longer-a-friend is no longer living with her husband. He moved out to think about things after she told him barely one-tenth of what she has done over the last couple of years and he has now found out the whole truth. I really feel for him as he always seemed a nice man but the other side of me is relieved she's been found out.

    Today I have made 5 portions of carrot and lentil soup, done one load of washing which just about dried before the rain came (it's now brightening up again!), paid money into the bank, been to Boots and Mr T, done some flying in the kitchen and read the paper.

    I'm going to do a HHC 6-6.30 whilst sorting out the dinner, if anyone wants to join me.

    since last posting i've done a Sainsburys shop, including 2 nice new tops (unlike greenbee i need bigger not smaller stuff) and have read more of my book about the pcos. looks like i need to try and alter my eating habits a bit to make them more GI based and also do more exercise (since changing jobs my walking has dropped) so have made an enquiry about local gym...probably v expensive but DH says worth it if i go!

    For those with a wii:

    The kids are having 1 for Christmas (good job Soappie's out) we want a Wii and Wii fit - what else do we need? Tesco have Wii, sports and wii fit for £220 which doesn't seem too bad.

    Check how many Wii remotes it comes with - if it's just the one then get Wii Play. Lots of fun little games on it and an extra remote and works out better value than paying for a remote on its own. HTH

    valli, I love it ! Thanks it has cheered my day!

    I just played it again for DH and DB and the dog started to sing along too!!
    does the dog know the words then?

    since my last post, I've been asleep all afternoon! just woken up and texxt DH to get a takeaway - was supposed to be doing dinner but it's a bit late now.

    Valli, I have to go get my prescription filled out on Monday as I’ve only got enough tablets for tomorrow, so we can go ‘together’

    Toots sorry you didn’t get your manicure but yay for the vouchers!

    Frodders, I feel sorry for no-longer-a-friend’s husband, but it’s good he knows rather than being fooled any more
