    Hi!

    Im back from the gym - still havent caught up on the thread properly.....sorry x

    I did another class so will no doubt be aching again tomorrow, but after that I will be fine!! :D Im going to take the kids swimming tomorrow to ease myself up a bit and they would swim all day every day if they had their own way!

    I have swished the kitchen, did the dishes and the oven trays which were soaking, and put a wash on.

    I have also decluttered myself to the shower and did some of the bathroom while I was in there.....so off to find my list!

    evening all

    been MIA as didn't get on last night and stayed at work til 6.30 tonight then straight to pizza express with DH for dinner. We had a massive row the other night so thought it would be good for us to have a bit of 'quality time' together. Things are ok now but it wasn't nice at the time! Shattered now after long day at work so ready for bed.

    Have done a few bits of flying but will update list tomorrow. xx

    I hope the row wasn't about your snoring ;) and that it's all sorted now. Hope you're still enjoying the new job.

    Sleep well!

    Just had a thought - our new car is absolutely spot less apart from the inside of the windscreen which is all kind of filmy - any ideas of what I can use to clean it without it going smeary? I'm thinking white vinegar, would that be ok? It was really wierd driving it today I kept thinking my eyes had gone all cloudy and wanting to rub them to get them back to normal, except it was the windscreen! I must clean it before it get driven again, it's not good to drive in a car with a misty windscreen

    I use a microfibre cloth. My dad uses isopropyl alcohol. Apparently meths works too... My mechanic uses screenwash (he generally returns the car MUCH cleaner than it is when I leave it with him :rotfl:)

    Suppose I should pack up and go to bed... can't be bothered though...
