AnW'sMum

Hi everyone

Been a busy few days hence lack of posting from me. Was at work Thurs/Fri and then the usual beaver/bellringning dash around.

Swimming lessons this morning (annoyed that Miss A's has been pushed back by 30 mins and they only thought to tell me yesterday :mad: ) then nipped to a friend's after.

This afternoon Miss A has done her homework and uploaded it to the school's site, seems like she is the first to do this. It's a new initiative so we will see how successful it is over time.

Hugs all round

Washing in off the line and folded, waiting to be ironed tomorrow morning.
Attahced some of the bushes inthe garden and cut them back, now the brown bin lid won't shut, so OH has offered to jump in it and jump up and down on the twigs etc to compact them down!!

I'm not too sure how safe that is!

Have to mention how fab my 'boiler man' is! Got in last night to no hot water and worked out the water pressure was too low but couldn't work out how to refill the boiler. Phoned said man and left a message expecting to hear back on Monday. He phoned me quite late last night and talked me through how to refill it and all was sorted That's good service IMHO :T
