    Oh I fell in lurve with the SR71

    I have managed to find some oomph and have pegged out washing, stuck the grill pan tray in the big washing up basin with boiling water and soda to see what happens - it's NEVER beeen properly clean since I moved in as I inherited a fitted oven and hob and it's always had black burnt on stuff on. Mind you it's not worthy of Kim and Aggie's attention so I shan'tmoan (watched the repeat yesterday where that woman had 17lbs of fat in her fridge etc :eek:) and I have ironed everything that can be ironed to now. More washing gone in. Bathroom door shut to thwart bluebottle that got in because I can't be bothered to spray it:rolleyes::rolleyes: it can stay in there until it kicks the bucket...

    Thankyou Merlin - I did wonder what plane it was as I could see little glass panes on the front and further down the plane - not modern looking at all.

    We have had Euro fighters playing chase right over us a few weeks ago as everyone came out to look as the noise was tremendous!! We are some way from their base and don't normally see them here - I just see them when I am out and about with work nearer the coast.

    Me

    where are you me? they go to the coast to the bombing range at donor nook, they are noisy buggars, we sit having a cuppa at work and they'll do the vertical mile above our heads, its like we being hammered into the floor! :rotfl:

    Kazw dont worry I am only doing bits of it - just needed to put the list up to feel 'normal' :rotfl: ( no chance of that!) the washing is out and the DW is on.

And I am seriously green about your flight - lucky blighter :rotfl: now stop prattling about planes and go do something - you are adding to my wish list with your every post!!!!

    Hi all,

    We got out in the garden , let the bunnys in their run and 10 mins later it started to rain:rolleyes:. I'm just trying to fit all the damp washing on the airer.

    I'm then going to try and finish my room so does anyone want to join me in a HHC at 2.15?
