Aunty - what kind of quilt are you making????
toots xx

It's a lap quilt as a (very belated ) graduation present for a friend's daughter - her brother got one and he graduated after her.

valli. Will have to tell my brother that. Even though he has lived in Aberdeen for years he is a Everton supporter as he lived there as a boy.

Am currently cooking the roast dinner and once thats done it will be bed I think, uniforms will have to be done in the morning.

I appear to have many multiples of a lot of things from pots, frying pans, bowls, plastic things...:o

Wonder how that happened Hope you're either ebaying, giving away or charity shopping the spares...

my mums fab - maybe I'm lucky...

Mine too, mostly

Jinky... have I missed something... what's happening to the utility room floor that means you have to mop it every five minutes?

Lots of presents wrapped, so really need to work out what I'm missing now (must order for DB and his FiL as soon as I've posted). Woodstove tested. I think i've got the hang of it, but it's quite fumy at the moment (apparently its normal when they're new), so now it's cold and dark I've let it go out so I can close the windows and doors! I've also asked my dad to check whether they've got a spare poker and tongs at home, otherwise I need small ones for my birthday (along with a log basket, but I got the impression last time they were here that he'd thought of that!).

I've got myself lots of new Christmas lights to put up, including some to go round the fireplace, as its going to look pretty awful until it has been plastered and painted. I'll get a christmas tree next week when I do my farm shop trip...

DW emptied and filters cleaned, washing up done... a bit more still to do. Kitchen surfaces S&S'd, wrapping stuff tidied in sitting room, so things are almost back to normal. Hot chocolate drunk and thread checked, so better go and finish the washing up and get things tidied away for the start of the week.
