(Mutters) and I thought Piggers was JOKING about the mean list! Should have known better I suppose

Too right... she IS in a bad mood :rolleyes::p Aren't you glad you're just on the end of the internet and not one of her children right now _pale_:shhh::silenced:

L-L You'll have a crowd of flyladies in there with you - just like Toots did! Feel free to send us out if we get too rowdy :p:p, but we'll all be there holding your hands (well, apart from mudders & soappie, who'll be assaulting your consultant at intervals!)

I'm in for next week... although the current list was enough to make me think twice :rotfl::rotfl:Hopefully Pigpen will have calmed down by the end of the week - there's no way I'm going to gut the attic even if she does put it on the list for Friday!

I feel sick now... too much chocolate and too much wine... and not enough preparation for work tomorrow. Off to have a bath with my trashy novel...

Why?

Mudbath

I almost feel sorry for LL's consultant....I said ALMOST!

I think putting the attic on Friday's list would be a really, really, really good idea Pigpen - maybe just a couple of hours because I'm trying to empty mine:rotfl:
{Mudbath tries to duck flying lumps of marzipan being flung by Greenbee}


When I say I'm emptying the attic...it's full of junk. My junk and DH's junk only DH doesn't yet think his is junk. Some of his junk might just get 'lost' when I'm flinging my junk. Think what I found under the bed when I broke my wrist x 1,000,000 and that's what our attic is like:rotfl:xx

Valli

because presents have still to be bought for

*deep breath*


almost everybody I have to buy presents for


it would help if I knew what to get
2 sisters
1 BIL (got 1 BILs and dad)
neices 1 &3 (got neice 2 sorted)
Neices BF; nephews GF probably
nephews 1,2 & 3
mum
sil
DS and DD aren't finished either
BF (best friend not boyfriend)

I think HARD CASH might well find its way into gift wallets...

I cannot DO the attic cos I can't get in it due to my fear of heights - I usually shove a child up there and shout instructions BUT they'll be at school...(it's not a complete fear of heights it's more a fear of falling and it's why I CANNOT walk on glass floors - or rope bridges.)
I once saw a You've been framed of a woman crawling across a rope bridge and I KNEW that under those circumstances I would have to do that assuming I could get ON the darned thing in the first place...and I struggle to watch 'height' things in films too.
