  • Thanks Toots sweetie, they have the most gorgeous xmas deccies (or they did last year), food, jewellery and things for presents. And I get to talk lots of german to people :rolleyes:

    Tooch was it you asking about the cars? I haven't passed my test yet, but I have a black mary quant 1980s mini waiting for when I do. It has a big sixties style flower on the steering wheel :D My mum has an old mini too, silver with red stripes. Plus we have about 4 minis in various states of repair in the garage, a LPG powered 4x4, and a quadbike. We're slightly mini-mad in my family, mum and dad used to rally with them.

    Woke up late this morning, but have been in the shower, started some homework and deleted a load of junk emails.

    Rose glad you're feeling better today
    Serena lots of hugs
    Mudders lots of hugs for stripes! Hope she is ok.
    I'm sure I've forgotten people, so hugs for everyone! xxx

    I am really struggling to get motivated today. I am quite exhausted from work and hospital visits, the latter is beginning to take its toll. Popping into work and then going for a swim so hopefully I will feel more energetic when I get back. Hopefully some HHCs later will get stuff done. I might have a sort/declutter day and cross those off instead of the cleaning, it will all help next week.

    See you all in a couple of hours :wave:

    hellooooooooooooo oddjob - how are you and yours?
    scotrae well done honey getting things better at home - its nice to know that your hard work following the lists is helping - dont worry about not getting stars your are still just a beginner so plenty time for stars later - just you wait until you have been following the lists for a few moths and you will be whizzing round the house and have time for yourself!
    serena - (((hugs))) oh thats a shame petal - hope the injured party is ok and stop stressing - try to leave work at work - i know its not easy - but in this case you say it wa someone doing somehing silly so you cant possibly expect to be prepared for all these eventualities
    mudders I do hope stripes' leg is just strained - she wont be too happy if its cracked again!! gentle squishy hugs from her aunty xx thanks for adding that link - its a lovey idea - can you pop back and answer my question please so i can have a go!
    triker they look cute - have you got one and cant find it? do you think my 7 year old niece would like one - would she manage to 'work' it?

    oooooooooooooooooooh the sun is out - must get some washing organied!
    bins out and back in
    E spoken to - out for lunch on sunday - combined birthday and christmas treat
    S&S the bathroom
    spoken to the DN
    spoken to neighbour

    toots xx
    Peace will be mine
    could do better - must try harder
