    Morning all

    Had a great time with friends last night, we had a carpet picnic of pizza and toffee pavlova, plenty of wine and lots of chat :D

    I see soappie has given you the update on toots.

    We are off out in a few minutes to church, I have been roped in to practise the handbells. Think we are going to be doing some fund raising at the local pub closer to C********s.

    Miss A and W are sleeping at MIL's tonight and I am gallivanting off out again :p

    The house is not too bad just so long as you don't open that door and that door and that door :rotfl:

    Thanks all for the advice and esp kazwookie as hopefully that means I can go to the earlier showing and not rush for DD's swimming lesson, but it does mean we will have to leave in the next 30 mins......
  • Right just quick post will update lists later, DS just gone down for a snooze so want to get as much as possible done!

    Thanks Kazwookie had you not mentioned mince I would have forgot to get it out!

    ANYONE UP FOR HHC 11.30-12.00?

    Morning all

    Today's list done (I think I did it Monday!) and I've done the bathroom/toilet this morning but I can claim for that when the right day comes round.....

    I've got two loads of washing out on the line, including a couple of throws. One is really heavy and rarely dries outside but if I can half dry it then it should be finished off indoors by morning.

    Got to make the most of this nice weather, I'm hoping to get the cats blankets done tomorrow and maybe another couple of throws.

    Haven't fully caught up yet so I hope everyone's OK.
