:hello: Master Mudbath - We are glad you had a good birthday and that you enjoyed Alvin and the Chipmunks. We thought it was very funny when Toby farted and poor Theodore was stuck under the duvet :rotfl::rotfl:

Mudbath

That was the best bit of the movie Hex!!!

We've been in about an hour and I really need to s/s a bit but with a bike in the living room it's hard - that's my excuse!!! I've decluttered the photo's onto my computer and now I'm going to put another wash on and do a 60 in 60.

My sister and I also have a little challenge going on. I know I've told you all about my mum's hoarding problems. Well, every time we visit we're going to decutter one thing even if it's only a biro. We're only taking broken stuff so we're not being mean or anything. Today I took a broken soap dispenser. My sister is only here for 6 weeks a year but she's with them every day so she's going to do it and so it her daughter so that's 84 things a year plus what I do. Daft I know but it makes us feel we're doing something!!!!

I only use my car every couple of months and it has always started so far!!

Surely it would be cheaper to hire a car as and when you need one rather than pay all the fixed costs (Tax, Insurance, Servicing, MOT) regardless of when you use it.

Good evening everyone :beer:

Happy Birthday to Rach



.........and Master Mud




We decluttered snow into a big heap today:

Dear Mudbath's Son

"Mrs Jelly - my mum says your husband might have what I had. It really hurts and I hope he is better soon and able to enjoy his birthday cake like I can. "

Mr Jelly says to tell you that he heard about how brave you were and also of how much pain you were in and after having had that pain he thinks that you were a very brave young man and he hopes that you have had a lovely birthday [and it sounds like you have]. He will have a small slice of birthday cake in March but only if he earns it by doing the Wii Fit when it comes!! Enjoy the rest of your birthday and we hope the snow goes soon so you can practise some stunts on your new bike, from Mr Jelly.

Mudders - you have a lovely DS

Helen x
