No flying, been to Woolacombe, so we have filled the house and car with sand.

Catch up with it tomorrow...

Wow kaz you've done marvellously, well done you! :T as someone who's not shy of building projects, I know how much hard work that will have been.

I always thought it was 6 months but managed to sneak one in a few months ago. I think it depends on the amount before it is checked.

Just remembered DH is upstairs:eek:

I haven't been up to see if he is okay.:o


I will come back and update my list after I have checked on him.


He is okay! Still not well enough to get up yet though:(

Update on jobs
TUESDAY_ ALL DONE!!

ALIBOBSY

Ok after a good start yesterday not so good today, still feeling off and spent most of the day with a throbbing headache.
Got all done yesterday except the understairs cupboard, but won't beat myself up for that. It is week 1 after all lol.
Did a chicken stock in the SC overnight which went back in with some veggies and leftover chicken for a chicken soup for tea. Going to throw some noodles in shortly. Hopefully chicken noodle soup will help us all as we have all been ill/under the weather this week. Also made a blackberry grater cake (thanks to poster over on the blackberry thread) with the berries I picked with DD1 yesterday. It was yummy with my coffee lol.
Also folded all the washing which OH had piled up on the table last night after he brought the washing in for me and hung out another lot. Am I the only one who finds you NEVER get to the bottom of the washing pile rofl.
Just going to aim for level one today

Unless it says otherwise it will be valid for 6 months from date of issue. But the last time the date is checked is when it is paid in by the accepting cashier, the issuer could ask for it to be returned as out of date so if you do pay it in and it is accepted you need to wait 6 working days to be sure it won't be returned Failing that ask the issuer to send you a new one.

ETA Kazw well done on the pond clearance, that was one deep pond.
