Hi everyone....I am just dropping in quickly on my husband's work computer . Our home computer isn't working and it may be a little while before I am back online properly again.

But I just wanted to share my good news....I've cracked my ironing challenge, I now have a clear ironing basket :j

Wishing you all a Happy New Year, hope to catch up with you all ( fairly) soon

Ironing?! I hadn't seen about the ironing before!

Does this include the 3 pairs of trousers that have been waiting to be taken up with Wundaweb for the last year?:o

That'll be the 'little job that you've been putting off for ages'

Either take them up or put them in the charity bag. All they're doing is gathering dust at the moment...

ETA - anyone heard from Wilf since christmas?

Pooh how deep is your snow now?

About 18 inches and 3-4 feet in drifts.

DB arrived earlier and stepped into drift up to his thighs but found water at the bottom so we are hoping it may be a thaw. He was very cold and wet too.
He has parked his van at a rakish angle on a road somewhere near here.

DS3 was let off from serious bother as he was stuck in another drift. He had to walk to a phone box and reverse the charges :eek: DH told him to put floor mats from the car under the wheels and it worked.

I don't dare look at weather forecasts any more.

Am half way there already - did the ensuite and downstairs bathroom again before the arrival of my olds and gutted Adam's room last week as he's been sleepwalking a bit recently and wanted to give him safe space to be in - Princess Emily's room is altogether a different prospect! This is the daughter who once had a box of potatoes growing sprouts in her wardrobe cos she "had seen it on tv" and she wanted to check they were telling the truth! :rotfl:

Tomorrows list is up.. it is fun.. especially for the chillies..

erm... does anyone have mice??????????

I used to have pet mice - but I'm guessing that's not why you're asking

And as I'm not a parent and I don't have any children, does that mean I can have tomorrow off (Apart from finishing the ironing!)
