Morning all

God it rain so hard in the night so my good idea to leave the half dry washing on the line was a bad plan!

Have got some friends coming for lunch, or rather we are going out for lunch but need to blitz the house and plant some plants in the garden before they arrive!

Then I need to get to the allotment this afternoon after OH gets back from signing on

Right must crack on, catch you all later

    Sally you always sound so busy:eek:

    What type of plants are you putting in this time of year Sal, I havent got a clue with my garden and just sort of plonk things in there and hope for the best.

    Day off for me today but lots to do.

    Have a good day everyone.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    That's bit brave when he's so young! They are doing so well aren't they.
    I'll have to pop over one day to introduce myself to him.

    Work might be a good idea for you - you must be well behind after all this excitement. :naughty::naughty:

    Morning all,
    Well after a few weeks of not posting due to holiday and other things keeping me too busy im back and determined more than ever!! Had a discussion with the OH last night and we've decided we really want to save a deposit for a house so Im going to spend today going through the 3 black sacks of clothes Im getting rid of to see what I can put on ebay to add to the funds! Also going to go through the forum and pick up any other ideas I havent tried yet. I know its going to take a while to get the deposit and money for the fees together but Im willing to put in the effort and give up on the very few luxuries I have if it means we can own our own place.
    Hope everyone has a good day :)

    Time to get things sorted once and for all......

    I don't think she has any plans to go out for a while...she is too besotted at the minute to leave him.

    I wouldn't say I'm well behind but I need to try and squeeze about 40 hours of work into 3 days....:o
