oooo I meant to say earlier...
I've found myself another little challenge time, don't know if this has ever come up before...

I was making a cuppa this morning and thought I'd see what I could get done while the kettle boiled. Managed to get all the breakfast stuff washed up. It really is amazing what you can get done in a couple of minutes against the clock (kettle!)

Might be worth a try for all us tea/coffee drinkers!

Huge hugs for you Lady L - I think it is well documented that I prefer cats to humans . 16 is a good age though.
Dusty - sounds like it wasnt the most relaxing break then? Will they be able to go back to school tomorrow. I think the dog thing comes down to the fundamental - don't get one because they are dogs
Greenbee - I think you will be a great aunt, and hope your DB/SIL apreciate how lucky they are to have you as back up.

Nothing useful done beyond hoovering dog hairs from the gorund floor. need to get off my bum and sort school bags for next week, empty and fill the DW, etc but after a 4 mile walk in the snow with a stop off for pub sunday lunch I really CBA

ETA Mrs B I like the kettle/toaster/coffe machine warm up challenge.

oh yes I have a plan;)

Send DS1 to school for P1 (maths)
Take DS3 to school
Collect DS1 from school P2 (PE) with DS2 who can stay here as he's isn't in a strong plaster yet
Go to Fracture clinic with will of steel to get past Mrs jobsworth and see an ortho
waste kids break time and P3 food tech for DS1 and get them back for lunch and P5.

Buidler not due here until Tuesday so I should have peace in the afternoon.

Right HH activity before the ski cross at 5:00 pm

Nowt wrong with that...its sunday, day of rest.:D


Dusty...awww sounds like a crapsy end to a difficult week, sending huge healing vibes to the brokened armed twosome. xx

LadyL, there is no such thing as 'just a cat', know though that your beloved spent his life being loved and cared for, thats all that matters in the end. xx

Jinky I LOVE Kipling bags...**quickly counts**, I have 9 give or take and bought the girls one each at christmas....naturally what your DDD's crime is unexcusable...no-one should EVER take the monkey off, its practically assault..:rotfl:
