    Morning All

    Just got to finish a few bits in the bathroom then i am will report my list.

    I am swimming this morning and ds is going in the creche just got an hour today so not long enough to do my workout so an hour of swimming today.

    Will have to get some more fence stuff it looks great but man did it splatter. I am so glad it came off kitchen scourers come in handy fir that and my skin is so soft too. Who meedsa massage sponge.

    My MSE tip for today use a kitchen scourer to exfoliate (and remove fence stuff)

    Greenbee thats great news about the training. What would you like to do for a job?
