    Morning all

    It is really grey and damp here - not what they forcast yesterday at all. Cats are stir crazy and the black ones being really naughty.

    Today's plans are for doing gardening jobs as DS1 has no golf today - he won his first tournament yesterday so was very pleased!

    DS2 still coughing - I was going to take them to FMrF today but he is coughing too much!

    Pigpen - I'd try to leave off making the decision until after you feel better. I'm not surprised you feel exhaused after all the blood you have lost plus your never ending round of chores and decorating. Have they reduced your benefits because OH has moved in?

    LL hope you get to spend time doing some lovely things with your DH

    Right let me find my list

    Our lovely friends came around last night with masses of free wood for the fire - my wood store is now full to bursting and there is a pile in the back garden for sawing and storing, I'll be lighting the fire much more often than putting the heating on for sure.

    Sexy - I'll join you, just have my brekkie and then HHC before the shower - what time are you contacting the union?

    We have just got a dehumidifier, its fascinating how much water it collects...
    I'm seriously thinking of getting one - how big are they and how expensive? Worth the money? Noisy?

    Mmmmm chocolate cake! A slice for each of the flyladies should help you out with your glut of cake. I'm sure the other flyladies will agree that we will need no thanks for helping you out....all part of the service. ;):p:D
    I will happily take some of your hands! :D

    Pigpen, things often seem worse than they are when we are ill and tired and stressed – if I were you I wouldn’t make any decision about uni until I was feeling better. It’s also really hard going back after time away so you did really well going back y’day – well done you!

    GnB, how’s LO?

    Jinky, hope your Gran is ok

    Dusty congrats to DS1, that’s great news on the golf, he will soon be like Wilf’s son!

    Busy day today, going to study the Bible with a nice lady I know and then have to go to PO, library, and get my prescription. Better go and get ready!

    See you all later! Happy flying! xx

    Sexy - I'll join you, just have my brekkie and then HHC before the shower - what time are you contacting the union?

    I have to call after 9 as they aren't open until then - their hours are 9-5. Need to go and find the number too. Haven't got dressed or had brekkie, as just got up, so need to do that at some point too.

    Off I go to get dressed then it should be time for the HHC. Anyone else joining us?
