    JW & SnowyOwl maybe you work together but haven't realised it yet!!!!:eek: :eek: :eek:

    Okay, we're getting idle now (not to mention a glass or 3 of wine too much) now that everyone else is living it up in Blackpool. I suppose some of us have to stay behind to keep doing the OS thing. I really hope that they will ahve a good time and send us some piccies - I'm sure someone must have taken a laptop (along with the slow cooker and bread maker).

    Deep sigh - I'll be off to Sainsbury's early tomorrow as usual.

    Good morning,

    Hello PP - sorry you had another bad night, but hope you are feeling ok today.

    Well, i woke up an hour ago, and couldnt get back to sleep, so decided to get up and have tea and biscuits!!!! Normally at the weekend i try to stay in bed as long as possible, but once i wake up, thats it, so here i am a good 2 hours before i was planning!!!!
    Have to take DS to football this morning, then he is off to stay at his dads, although DD wont go, and he cant be bothered to take her so we are going to have a girly weekend. We are off into Plymouth to do some holiday shopping, and i bought some underwear a couple of weks ago from a new shop in town called T J Hughes, and so far, ive worn a black bra once, and it broke, and a white bra once, washed it, and then found all the wires poking out!!!! Needless to say, all of it will be going back today!!!! It was cheap, but i expect it to last longer than one wash!!!!
    Well, off for a look around MSE, will pop back later.
    Hope everyone has a lovely day
    Take care xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Morning PP, morning Catowen, morning everyone.

    The new day looks quite promising here, the sun is trying to peep out from behind the clouds.

    Have lots to do this weekend, ... shopping, farmers market, sorting wine batches out etc. I plan to get a gammon joint from the farmers market, so that will be going straight into the slow cooker. Should get a few meals from that.

    Breakfast: oats, fruit and HM yoghurt plus a glass of orange juice
    Lunch: HM goulash soup and HM roll
    Dinner: hopefully gammon with veggies

    Have a lovely OS day everyone!
    Enjoying an MSE OS life :D

    Morning PP and catowen and everyone else who follows.

    Hope the Blackpool-ers are having a good time!

    Just a quick post as really should be on my way to work.

    Had a restless night. Loads of weird dreams. Must have been the cheese I ate last night :rolleyes:

    At work until one today - hopefully not too busy. Get some lunch when I get home and then decide what to do. No set plans so just see what happens.

    Housework all done yesterday except the bathroom which is always a Sunday morning job so just a quick tidy up and hoover needed today.

    Dunno yet whats for dinner. Have some salad in the fridge that needs using so may have that :confused:

    Anyway have a great Saturday everyone.

    Morning all..

    Still in bed busy browsing through MSE but when I do manage to tear myself away from here I will try to do a bit of typing (listing description etc) for a couple of Ebay items. Need to package up something I sold on Ebay. Will stick a washing on, do a few odd dishes left from supper last night, collect son from my parents (we were out last night) at about 9am. Hang washing up and maybe make fairy cakes if there is still enough butter in the fridge. Pop to the shops and then when I return will probably come back to browse MSE again. Might pop to McDonalds for dinner with husband if we go to see Mission Impossible tonight. That's all I have planned for today.

    morning everyone
    lots planned for today in the house of frey, need to pop to the sortong office this morning and pick up a package the postie couldn't deliver yesturday, should contain more jewelry making supplies, I have only been making it for 4 days and have already sold 4 pairs of earings , have a few more people interested, so looks like it will be a nice little earner.
    Need to get the washing up done and a load of washing on, to hand on the line as the sun is shining. Will also try and finish leveling the garden and maybe even get my shed put up.
    Hope everyone is having a good time in blackpool
    Curry queen hope you are ok, havent seen you about in ages.
