    Hi everyone :D been busy busy but I have a wardrobe with bits in and doors on, we also have the wall cupboards up with doors on & they look fab :j:j just my smaller wardrobe/vanity unit to do, but we broke the bed :o no not with rudies just 2 of us stood on one piece crrrrrunch...easy fixed. Really unsure if I like having a full length mirror :eek:scary thing, but saves me clambering on the bed/falling back off when I want to see what my shoes/boots look like with something.

    Hope you are all well, no time to catch up tonight or I won't get any sleep before my meeting tomorrow with the money people from services so need a clear head. ((hugs)) to all you special people xx
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

  • Evening all, I am way behind on the flying and the thread this week.

    ((hugs)) to all that need them. I will try to catch up with the thread and the flying at the weekend. two days til half term woo hoo:D.

    I just thought I would share my son's poem with you as I though it was rather good. They had to write a poem for homework which personified fire:

    The fire roars through the night,
    The fire dances through the night,
    The fire jumps for joy,
    But still, it is no toy.

    Fire is dangerous and deadly,
    But fun to watch.
    The fire will soon die out,
    But will hatch again,
    To play a new game.
    Twins, twice the laughs, twice the fun, twice the mess!:j:j
