    Yes, the blues are the unseen workforce. The reds turned up first last night and when asked where the blues were the reply came "fixing the planes of course!". They turned up about half an hour later.

    Mudders - have a lovely holiday

    ~sigh~ I have to give the bathroom and utility area a deep clean this morning. DiL was out last night and got home v. late. She's not normally a drinker (half a glass of wine about once a month) but she must have had two glasses of wine. She's been yacking up all night according to DS. There looks like there's been an attempt (but not v. successful) to clean the bathroom floor. Also, I put the cat litter try outside yesterday to air and forgot to bring it back in. So the cats have had a pee where it should have been...

    ~double sigh~ I should get her to do it really but that'll be more hassle. Off to find the mop...

    Morning lovelies! :wave:

    It's quite nice here this morning if a little nippy, so I've done my washing and hung it out, DW is in full flow as is the TD (teenies excess washing just left in the WM) littleys will get done when she wakes up. I've cleaned out the litter tray and put some rubbish in the bin outside, sorted some bits into the recycling box and made my bed.....it's due for cleaning today or tomorrow (done every 2 weeks) only takes 5 mins though.

    We're all going on a bike ride this morning, don't really want to if it was totally up to me but it's OH's suggestion and he'll only keep banging on about it until we do it, so we're gonna ride along the coast into town and he's buying me and littley breakfast, it's the coming back I'm not looking forward to, it's uphill.

    Nice pictures soappie I almost joined the RAF back in the day, got married and had kids instead :rolleyes:

    Have a good time mudders x you too AnW'smum :hello: x
