Very rude Bookie...I was being given painting lessons by my BIL when he came to do the kitchen. He was driving me insane and made me give the ceiling 3 coats of paint! On reflection the advice he gave me was good and my painting looks much better for it.....not that I would ever tell him that though....:rotfl:

But there's a diffference between constructive advice and downright rudeness isn't there? If someone was helping me I would be grateful that they had given up their time and energy....(unless they were making a complete dog's dinner of it of course....lol )

I think he was just overtired and stressed. He has maybe learnt his lesson. He finished his text by saying 'at least we can all get a good day on it tomorrow after church' so hopefully he will now concentrate on the decorating etc rather than moving in stuff for us to work round. They still have the flat til the end of the month so he could always take nan airbed up there to sleep on to keep the school happy.

LOL he probably got a good talking to from your DD for being so rude....

I would imagine so!

Right - I'm off to sit inan overcrowded, overheated church for an hour and then parade,stand in the cold for another hour. Very difficult to judge how many layers to put under the uniform with that combination! Still, they were worse off in the trenches.

Catch you tonight hopefully. x

Morning. I can't decide whether to have breakfast and coffee to wake me up or go back to bed. Really tired after sister phoning at 2.30am for advice. And a bit annoyed that the benefits and employment boards are nit picking rather than answering my actual question. Still, it's early yet.

Morning all..hope you all slept well...
I am just knocking up bacon baguettes for kids before going up to parade.I always have the clothing dilemma too Bookie!

Morning all - I am feeling the need for a lazy day but feeling bad about the lack of time and attention I've given the kids this last week or two, so will make an effort to take them out somewhere I think. Just not sure where - it's freezing, miserable and I'm skint! Park wearing lots of layers then maybe!

Am watching in bemused horror as Natasha picks up her cereal bowl to drink the milk out of it...I swear I brought her up with better manners... :rotfl:

morning all

have had a nice lazy morning, was going to go for a run but I have a really painful foot. Need to get into the freezer and see what we can live off this week and then do a minimal shop as I am skint. Might go to the garden centre to have a look around the christmas display and then B wants to make daddy a birthday cake even though it was on thursday

hope all those decorating have a good day and get lots done!
