    Hello I'm back. Internet connection went AWOL for some reason :confused:

    Anyway whilst it was down I got a bit carried away with the oven and hob cleaning. Oven doors been off, glass scrapped, degunged and hob tops and oven racks soaking in soda crystals in the bath. :D Looking good now.

    DW on for the second time this morning. Got to wash a load of greasy pans by hand though:rolleyes:

    Right who's up for a HHC???. You decide the time and I'll join you!!!!!:D:D:D:D

    Hi all

    I have managed to skim through this thread. Love n hugs all round to those you need or want one.

    About the ironing challenge....

    I would love to be able to say, yes Im in - but the truth is - Ive decided to give up ironing. :D

    Its very liberating.

I'm quite hurt although she was very nice and we'd been together over 18 months...will miss her, still, it's the way of the job.

    So, was gonna do the list now before this avo's job but OH's just rung asking if I want some porridge as he's making some :confused: couldn't say no so I'm off round there and I'll do the list when I come back in.
