** Week-end Chat 9th/10th Jan 2010 ~ It's a chilly one! **

Morning all, hope no-one minds me starting the chat :o:o

DD went to bed at 6 last night with a temp and she woke a couple of times in the night, she's fine this morning but as it's freezing outside I won't be taking her for her swimming lesson at 9am this morning!! :p

Has anyone got anything nice planned for the week-end?

I have no idea what to cook for dinner tonight, any suggestions?

xx

    I'm up early today... :eek:

    Was woken by a van tearing up the snow outside my drive. That's going to make getting out "fun and interesting".

    Was going to go shopping and visit parents. May be flattening stuff with a shovel instead...

    "Food" would probably go well for your meal tonight Tigzem. ;)

    Why pull away in the snow with 2,000 revs, when you can go for 5,000+? That spinning and grinding tyre sound just means you need "MORE POWER!"
