Not managed to get any flying done this evening.
I got in late from work, stinking from cigarette smoke as person I saw chained smoked. Then had to go back out to get some wood as fire wouldn't get going. I needed a shower.
DD2 is now banned from using the internet after abusing my trust about it.:mad:
DD1's close friend took an overdose and is currently in hospital, hoping she's going to be ok.:(

Yellow avatar in memory of everyone who has lost someone this year, and of course AnWs mum and Miss A and Master W of course.
for your continued thoughts and prayers for Tris and Michelle. Tris is still having memory problems and is in a lot of pain. Michelles condition has not improved.
I had a friend round to visit yesterday and made sure that the lounge, kitchen and bathroom were sparkly and tidy (Thank you home-help!) but the other doors were firmly shut as if they had opened one, a plethora of items would have toppled out and buried them like in a comedy show!
My raw cat food order arrived today from here. My cat is 15 yrs old and she seems to love raw food as much as her sachets, and after reading a lot of research, about taurine and an older cats diet, I thought I would try the sample order. There is plenty of it and will try her tomorrow on the first one.
Off to find a list.

Morning All
Thinking of you AnW's mum, A & W.
Mum and dad's for tea tonight so not sure how much I'll get done although I may have time to pop home for an hour first. I seem to have toothache - not raging at the moment - just niggly so that's not good.
G&B - hope they sort LO out - hugs.
Have a good day all

This worked for me in the downstairs bathroom bu just wouldn't shift the mould in DS1's shower cubicle. However, the same company sell a silicone sealent remover which works well and so made the replacing of the old manky stuff much easier!
