    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: No you probably dont want to find what was in it:eek:


    I'll join you for your HHC.

    Reminds me of when Piggers had one going round in her dyson :rotfl::rotfl:

    I can't hoover I'm out of bags. I have found that you can wash the filters rather than replace them with new ones :o

      Hi flyfolks

      Signing off for the weekend, I will be back on Monday once Grandparents have gone home. They should be arriving soon, yay! This is the trip they should have made 8 weeks ago, the hotel let them change the dates due to the circumstances. Speaking of dates, AF is finally here! After the same length of time. But I think that was stress related really.

      Can I claim 4 stars for this week please Toots? All 4 rooms of my flat are clean and sparkling.

      Love to everyone, have a nice weekend!
      xxxx

      Have just about had enough of my DD and her gobby little ways so I've just grabbed her and shoved her upstairs and told her to stay up there forever as I can not stand hearing her mouth of at me one more time - sent her up there before I do some serious damage to her scrawny little neck - can you tell that I've had enough of her [lol manically]

      Off to do some more now

      I have also S&S'd the kitchen, WM x 4 [got alot to catch up on] TD x 3
      DW x 1 then emptied and some more put in and made a start on DS room just got to finish a couple of bits in there and then its
      DD's room but I can't do that till she comes downstairs and apologises for her attitude.

      Mudders/Soapppie - I've got 5 Redwings eating the crab apples in the tree

      Washing up done.
      Sorting of playdoh and ebay photos next

      Fantastic! We had a heron land on our shed roof yesterday. I thought it was a mistake - crash landing or something - but it's on the roof again now. We don't have a pond. Weird!!! I don't have any fish and I'm guessing a tin of tuna or a fish finger would't be suitable :rotfl:. I love the birds so much!

      I'm off to have an s/s in the children's rooms and they can finish their rooms off when they get in. I've also:

      - wrapped DS's presents for Saturday (I got quite emotional doing it as I kept thinking about how ill he was last year)
      - washing machine on
      - clinic cleaned
      - client done
      - hot stones disinfected
      - kitchen s/s

      The house looks so, so much better. Remind me not to take school holidays off from flying again. In future i'll just do a HHC in the morning and one in the evening to keep on top of it.

      Hugs to all xx
