    How's it going Greenbee - and how's the jet lag?

    STILL piddling down here. Went out to the car to go to do some shopping and I have a flat tyre! I shall call the RAC in a moment - after all, to me, it's an emergency - I'm out of Gordons!
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

    Hellsbells I know what you are going through and massive (((hugs))) to you. I kept having abcesses this year and had to have two teeth out (on different occasions) and I think that has now done the trick. Don't overdo it, it takes a while to get over this IMHO.

    Flying wise, I have scrubbed oven to within an inch of its life - would like to know if Ovenpride can be used on the sides of the oven or only on the trays? I have never used it but reading posts I see it is very popular. Also cleaned fridge and threw out some out-of-date bottles I never really liked so good riddance! I defrosted the freezer a few weeks ago so that is still OK.

    It has stopped raining here and the sun is trying to get through, so might get some washing out.

    Laters!

    Ok didn't get much flying done yesterday or this morning as still feeling sick, but confirmed the reason is a new baby on the way :j.

    After losing a baby at Easter (sadly no heartbeat on the first scan), we aren't telling alyone in the "real" world yet. But I thought I could let you fly ladies know.

    Really need to get flying as this will be baby number 4 :eek:. So need to keep on top of the housework even more :rotfl:.

    Having to fly around after tea when the sickness eases off, but trying to do bits in the day as I can.

    Aiming for level 1/2 if I can.
