    hi
    I am not flying (as such just flapping a bit really) but having a coffee and a catch up. For those of you who are way too interested search e bay for well worn shoes/worn shoes and you will find those ladies who are carrying out sterling work satisfying certain people's special needs (IYSWIM)
    Now if I had the faintest idea what they mean when they promise the shoes will be cleaned to e bay standards I would be even wiser - in all honesty I am assuming the gents are happy to take the shoes off their hands but what do I know.
    Suffice it to say that were I a PA to any of these gentlemen (yeah right in their dreams they have PAs secretaries and staff) I would NOT be pleased with what I was given.
    It takes all types!

    Anyway Valliland,as we start another week is not looking bad. Kids off Friday so that'll put a spanner in the works - beds won't be stripped until lunchtime LOL

    I will try to keep up and post as apprpriate

    Valli's list for Monday

    Clear drain cover DONE
    Put away ironing
    Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY

    Well, managed 20 minutes! But seemed to get quite a bit done, including the outside of the back door :)

    Just noticed it's always the ironing and vaccuming left on my lists ;) I usually vaccum the entire house (or at least each floor) all at once, so only do it every other day or so. Ironing is usually done in hourly batches a couple of times a week too ;) Honest... :D

    Morning everyone, just going to go crack on getting things done today and not chatter too much. I need to take the landrover up to a tints specialist at some point too, boys being such a nightmare with light they are travelling with towels over them if it's sunny at the mo so think we'll have to get the windows done.

    ((hugs)) to all who want/need one today xx xx xx

    It'll save you fuel too, as you won't need the aircon on as much!
