Just had to brave the outdoors (very cold here) to clean DS1s footy boots (he's 11) and before anyone says he should be doing them himself - I've tried,

believe me I have felt your pain.
I make DS keep his in the shed because the concepot of taking them OUT of the boot bag to allow them to dry seems alien - and they grow stuff Aggie would freak at if left - and a microscope would NOT be needed;)
So sometimes I do DS's occasionally he does.
He's 16 now
you're in for a long haul (and I do hope you haven't read anything else I have posted about the joys of parenting a DS...)
Ink has NOT come out of the duvet but the mark is reduced...:huh:

who's culling the smileys? Where are shrug and rolleyes?

Ha well onwards and upwards
DS cannot HOLD a biro and then put it down in the same state he picked it up in - they commit harikiri in his hands it appears...

I got so carried away with the bathroom clean that I decided to carry straight on with the bedroom as well!

So I've got a fourth star, and if only, if only, if only [whispers] lovely Piggers will set the bathroom tomorrow, which I have also done then I might get 5 stars for the very first time ever on the list...Ssssshh! now... don't give her any ideas about cellars or garage clearances.....:D)

Afternoon all

Hugs AnW's. I have dug out a yellow top for tomorrow xx

Nopot2pin - sometimes less is more with the rice crispie cake - just melt some milk chocolate, stir in enough rice crispies so they are just covered in choc rather than swimming in it, divide into paper cases and pop them in the fridge until the choc's gone hard again

Happy birthday's to Nicki and all

Hugs on your fall Jo

Off to do NN's in a moment and then Tesco - I didn't go at the weekend so we're getting low on loorolls and stuff like that.

Then I'll do some flying I think
