    Oh Mudbath, poor little Stripes, I hope she will recover quickly. Poor little soul.

    Sorry about your horrible neighbour mammamia, we have a few problems but yours sound much worse.

    Happy Birthday soappie
    Congratulations Helen and mummyof5
    Hugs mudbath, I hope she is okay, sounds like it is going to be expensive though.
    Hugs for strikes too

    Today I have got two loads of washing on the line. I have just washed two backpack type bags as DS2 wanted to throw them out as they smelt of beer!! Remains of their trip to see Blur.

    Kitchen is finished Toots!

    My list of five things for this week is:

    1.Clear my room of all DS2s 'stuff' we cleared out last week and get him to bin or burn most of it.
    2. Clear and clean window ledges in study/spare room
    3. Weed 1/4 of front garden. It is tiny but I don't want ot overdoit again.
    4. Clear one desk in study.
    5. Clear one arm chair in study. Then we can sit in there again.

    Hello all

    Been at Sports Day all morning, just missed the rain, got home in time to get the washig in and it is lovely out again now so it will go back out once I've had lunch.

    DoDo is home sick so not sure how much flying I'll get done. Staring the kitchen at 1:00pm

    Mudders - I can't believe your pooch is as accident prone as you, poor thing hope she is ok.

    Well, the WCs still haven't come. So I don't know what to do now. They want me to be here as they haven't been before and they want to see what's involved and I want them to do the insides as it's the first time. What's the betting if I go and have a lie down they will arrive...

    Mudders, it must have been so scary hearing Stripes screaming

    Mammamia hope your horrible neighbour moves out soon

    Mumofjusttwo thanks for the link, I will have a look at that

    I'm going to have a lie down, they said they would be here an hour ago. And when I get up I will do more on the kitchen and start on dinner
