    AnW'sMum - WTG the car washing crew :T-:T thats a fantastic amount - are they all a bit soggy? yes I am sure it must have helped the steps total - I have been putting washing out and as I can only carry small amounts I have been back and fore a few times - i should count steps and then add them up until i get a pedometer.
    toots xx

    Great idea with the washing, I shall put a load out now and count my steps. Then we are off to see if we can get sandals for hols, will have to use the new toy to get there :rotfl:

    Not posted lately but I am still flying when I can.

    So far today I have finished off cleaning the oven having left it over night with the goo in it - lovely shiny shelves but now I have to get more stuff to clean the top oven/grill.

    Have also defrosted my freezer and decided that instead of going out for dinner tonight we will have the steak that was hiding in the bottom.

    OH has finished all the ironing and I have managed to keep the kitchen that I blitzed yesterday fairly tidy.

    Will be going to the gym tonight after we have taken Ashia home from work so I am going to spend an hour on my knitting (haven't done any for about 15 years so I need the practice!!).

    Hope everyone is having a decent weekend.

    rose - west wickham in kent? which garage? you may've been a few metres from where i live!i can give you some good directions on how to get back to the motorway if it helps. you should be able to get home in about 1.5 hours i think.
    brilliant!
    We are buying it privately from someone who lives in Hayes Chase. If you could give me directions that would be fab - we have to get from there back to the Purley Way and I should be ok from there. I'm not going on motorways, we found a good way that went from our place across the countryside to Dorking and then up the A217 and then cut up to WWickham. It was a bit complicated tho and we had to use DH's sat nav on the way back to get out again! That's what I'm worried about, not sure if he will have the sat nav or if I will!

    Been on facebook but the daft thing plays up something rotten, so lost my temper and logged off lol (Rosepink) I requested you as a friend, would have done more but temper tantrum got in the way.
    Thanks, I've accepted you!
    Rosepink well done for getting started - how long did your 1200 steps take you?
    Ooh, I dunno. 5-10 mins maybe? I wasn't really timing myself, I was watching TV! Well done you for all your steps today for putting the washing out!

    Blimus the avitars are the pictures people have under their name and above their post count - can you see them? I have one of pencils and pencil shavings, and Toots has one of Tootifrootis and there are lots of other nice ones.

  • Hi all

    I have so far today cleaned and tidied the scullery. Just need to do a quick tidy of the livingroom and I'm calling quits apart from the ironing of the school stuff.

    Toots Piper is fine today and eating well she had 2 bowls of broth at lunchtime so she'll be fit for her big day tommorrow. I might need to buy shares in Kleenex though.
