    I have yes and I was thinking of doing it later but I think I may be snowed under with coin counting and such exciting stuff
    Then again... maybe we should point people towards more conventional abbreviations... I'm not sure whether I want to know what you really mean :p:p

    I'm making supper and doing lots of tidying/decluttering. I need to get lots of steps in, so am doing it all in bits. And I'm pretty sure some baby spiders have hatched out somewhere :( Two on the ceiling last night, one smaller one in the laundry basket earlier, and a tiny weeny one on the airing cupboard door just now... As tomorrow will involve late meetings (10.30pm finish) I may just spend the morning hoovering upstairs...

    I haven't worked out KH yet, although only just got TD today :rotfl:

    Sorry, what is TD? and KH? Pigpen, just has seen your post. Thank you.

    Monday list is done.


    I fell asleep on the train, and thought I would go straight to bed. But a walk from the station really perked me up. So I did my Monday list. And am going to a 8.30 yoga class tonight.

    :hello:

    Have a lovely evening everyone.

    xx

    Edit: thank you xx_Jo_xx.
    I shall try this as soon as I can. Is crapola a real word? I love the sound of it :rotfl:Oh! and thank you for the tips, especially tea tree oil, and bio liquid overnight soaking. I have just saved a couple of spray bottles with a similar thought in mind (but did not have a clue what to fill them with).

    oooh coin counting we have nearly £500 for our holiday fund!!! DH is obesessed with counting it every week or so

    I have one of those pound shop tins, that I add to...that you can only open with a tin opener. I only open it, when its absolutely chocker full
    Last time I had nearly 400 quid in it :D
    It is such a wee boost eh ??

    Anyway... no real flying for me today.
    I was going to do a little in the kitchen, but the crispy catostrophe hampered any of that :o. Sorted now though.
    Tomorrow, I will catch up.

    Rosepink... onion man with mascara on would have been funny :rotfl:
    Poppy.... I would have been furious at your ex KH... it is completely unacceptable for him to behave like that.
    Tomato... I am not sure if this helps you or not, but I did see an advert in the paper, for cleaning products on offer in Asda... Mr muscle, bleach ect were 2 for £1.

    Ok... I can remember anyone else I need to say anything too :o,
    So, I'm off for a shower, then work.
    TTFN

    Evening All,
    Just declutter DDs to bed, and enjoying the peace & quiet with a cuppa
    Just to follow up on some posts
    Rosepink - check if your charity shop has a ragman – then send them everything. If it is not good enough to sell on they bag it with anything else they may have and then ragman pays them to take it away. Its a win- win for everyone – you would not need to stress whether items are good enough, they still receive money. Hope this helps.
    Mudders – congrats on the job
    Juliejim – good luck for Friday
    Hope everyone else is ok, :grouphug: if you need them.
