    Hello Flyers, Busy day today as I've got all the mum's from DS3's class coming round for a christmas social this evening. It seemed like a great idea at the time I organised it but now I have lurgified children and an absent DH. Needless to say I have to get my house spotless before everyone comes round tonight.

    parcels wrapped and breakfast munched.

    Now need to try and shower with a plastic bag on my hand :rolleyes: not going to be easy this time as its my right hand I need to cover and i'm right handed. Should be fun.

    Then I better do a S/S of kitchen and dining room then find the nearest small PO that I can go to as I dont want to have to go into town, pay parking and then find a queue a mile long

    Back later

She's bought him a limited edition electric guitar for Christmas and has spent.......£650!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm afraid I couldn't hide my shock so she's gone off on one with me. £650 and he doesn't like the guitar!!!!!!
    mudders - I am with you - I wouldnt have been able to hide my shock either - that is a ridulous amount to be spending IMHO!
    Valli hugs for you and DD xx

    Morning all

    Two loads of washing hung round the house, including the "blankies" from the living room.

    I've done the living room/hallway/stairs today so I'll claim for that when the right day comes round (I do the bathroom on Thursdays, creature of habit, me).

    It's raining and miserable here.

    Waiting for Asda delivery and a parcel to be delivered *watches door*
