    Thanks everyone. *sniff* *snuffle* :(

    No flying for me, taking it easy, and gentle pottering around as and when I feel up to it.

    Glad you're a little better today Dollyday.

    Mum's taken the children out for the day. *phew* not up dealing with them too.

    Weebles, hello. Don't put yourself off by trying to do four days in one. Be sensible pick one, and try to get level one done on that lis. Join Toochoosey (and me!) in a HHC now - 30 minues when you run round and ty to get as much as you can done off your chosen list. Benny Hill music is optional. Come back in half an hour and let us know what you got done, and we will do the same.

    Waves at everyone else, and hopes Jinky isn't suffering too much. I had a mild migraine yesterday so totally sympathise.

    Tooch, joining you now.....
