    I've been on a narrowboat since Friday (the house is still going up and down :rolleyes:).

    How was it :confused: DH and I have narrowboat on our list of post-children holidays :p

    Need to update my list - I've done plenty, so need to see it written down to inspire myself :T

    Empty, clean and sort a cupboard Cupboards look OK, so I tidied the bookcase full of cookery books, dusted the tops of the books (eeuuuughhhh!), and tidied/decluttered the pot of pencils, sellotape etc on top instead. Nigella looks much happier now, and a heap more glamorous....
    Level Three
    [STRIKE]Clean out the fridge[/STRIKE] Hmm. Looked OK from last week. Wiped the milk bottle shelf? Check. Yoghurt in date? Check. Cheese wrapped up? Check. Green caterpillar chrysalis neatly suspended from top shelf? Check.

    WHAT??????

    :eek:

    I think it must have come in on the home-grown beetroot/leaves at the weekend. :o "Blimey!" he thought. "Winter's come on a bit suddenly, hasn't it? Off to snooze...."

    And there he was. A cabbage white chrysalis nestling next to the shredded suet box.

    Have popped him gently in the eaves of my garden shed....

    Can I have a star, Toots, despite the caterpillar?

    How was it :confused: DH and I have narrowboat on our list of post-children holidays :p

    Lovely - peaceful, quiet etc...!

    My parents, my brother & SiL and my cousin (who used to skipper a commercial narrowboat taking tourists on the grand union canal in London) and me... we ate in pubs in the evenings, so only breakfast & cold lunches (and drinking) on board. We were on the Kennet & Avon Canal.

    Apparently next year instead of going from Foxhanger to Dundas acqueduct, we're going to be going from Foxhanger to Savernake, up Caen Hill to Devizes :eek:

    Can I be cheeky and ask for some good healing vibes for my dad - he had his op on Saturday but has to go back this evening as it seems to have gone wrong. His appointment is at 4.45pm. I really, really appreciate it, thankyou.

    On a positive note, I'm trying to cancel all panicky/negative/scary things with good ones....DS has been at school all day and not been sent home yet - very good news!

    I'm going to do a HHC 145 to 215 to take my mind of things xx
