    Sorry to say but I think everything is becoming too overwhelming re black run, two tiered, nursery slopes etc.

    Theres too much info to take in, imho.

    I was getting confused too, but think I have it sorted now. Would have helped if I'd known what 'black run' and nursery slope' meant. Could be very confusing for newbies though - it is a lot to take in as you say.

    Frodders - Rosep has explained the two tier system beautifully. We only thought it up last night! OK - I see Piggers new weekly challenge now. OK that will get a heart, the nursery slope people will get a throbbing heart like this: :heartpuls

    Ok, now I think it makes sense. I was confused because there seemed to be 2 different things for the hearts! (and it was late, and a Sunday, and the holidays, so my brain was resting!) So, we could (and that is only a possible 'could'!!) get a star, a heart and a throbbing heart each day for doing the daily list, the daily bit of the weekly challenge and our own 5 things a day list - right?!!

    Oh, and Happy Birthday to your DD

    GnB - 2.gif Fantastic news; I take it you're going to go for it? I wish I'd carried on with my post grad stuff .......... :o

    Jo - 1.gif hope you get stuff sorted

    Big hugs to Mudbath about your poor puddytat - she'll be with lots of loved pets I'm sure.
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    I didn't do so well there but progress still made. Miss A has decided she wants to bake so will undo some of the work I have just done :rolleyes: but she is happy and that's the main thing.

    Started on the stairs as well and am going to carry on after indulging in a :coffee: with serena :) did you see I made a bit of room in my PM box for you?

    Soappie - moat wise we are fine, need to empty the trugs - I'll do that now as I'm heading for the shower - It is raining quite hard now so hopefully OH's bungs will work and the flood will head up the road to be somebody else's problem. It is not a permanent fix as I now have to dispose of the water off of our roof manually!
