Have been to Ikea tonight and at the checkout I trusted friend to pack my shopping into a bag while I paid and I think I have left 2 things on the checkout so have lost £9:mad: I know I should have checked but I assumed she had got everything. I just hope they have fallen out of the bag and are in the car boot somewhere where I can't see them:o
I got 2 cheapo Lack sidetables for lounge, a chest of drawers for DD and a bag of misc stuff! But I didnt get any candles or a plant:rotfl:

** note to self - [STRIKE]nag[/STRIKE] encourage AnW'sMum to get those curtains made!

:eek::eek::eek: Argh will I ever learn to keep my big mouth shut!!! ;)

busy day for me - Cornhill untill 3.30 and then home to do some phone calls and then Pancake Party at the church which was good fun with pancake tossing and other competitions for the kids.

Sounds like a lot of fun at church, a great reason for no flying in my book

Wow bows down in homage :T I can't think of anyone who has been there and NOT come out with candles or a plant. Hope the missing stuff is in the boot, if not might be worth calling the store with your receipt to hand as they may be able to credit your account (assuming you used a card).

Been watching One Born Every Minute and thinking I could never be a midwife, not because I am squeamish but because I would want to tell some of them to get a grip and stop shouting/screaming :rotfl::eek:

And on that note I bid you all good night. x

OH's DD has a 2nd son, born at 22.11pm, 6lbs 15oz, all is well, and healthy.

Maybe now I have had the text I will be able to go to sleep, I have emailed OH at work as he is not allowed his phone.

Kazw That is wonderful news

kazw congratulations

Busy busy day. Bathroom I doubt has EVER been cleaner. Oh but the shower screen isn't frosted at all my non scratch scourer had proved that. I've even removed all the seals off the screen for cleaning. My bedroom is nearly finished. Garage is sorted. 5 bags of clothes decluttered to nephew. Shed rearranged so DPs car stuff can go in there in the morning meaning I get under the stairs back!!! Grafted our bums off today, will be another early start in the morning so I can meet an old friend (from where we lived that we had the hassle) for afternoon with our boys. DS2 and her oldest were best buddies at school, from nursery.

Sorry not going to try to catch up or type too much as mu hands are blistered from cleaning (not joking!) night night all x x x

Oven and hob cleaning week... and it is level one so none of you can get out of it.. [/STRIKE] I LOVE my clean, shiny oven!! It took about 2 hours to scrub the shelves from black to silver, but they look so gorgeous, its very sad, but I have to keep looking at it! Just stuck a pizza in for an easy meal tonight, and it looks so different, all light and bright! (Pizza said 'directly on oven shelf', but no way!! It's on a piece of foil!), only problem is I don't really want to cook anything in it now! Any tips on keeping it so nice? Just cleaning more regularly (don't think I've ever done it before, or maybe once, in 4 years )

As well as the liners mentioned by AnW's mum and toots, wipe it down with vinegar after every use, so the inside won't get greasy and horrid.

There is a definite baby boom in here at the moment. I hope it's not catching :eek::rotfl:

I wouldn't mine if it was

Greenbee - your challenge is to have your presentation done by 9pm thursday evening - no last minute rushing allowed

I know... but HOW? I have to be up at 6 to go to the gym, and because friends left so late will be coming home to work here in the morning, then going into the office at lunchtime, then from the office out to meet ex-colleagues. So only Thursday to do any work...

Had a lovely evening - 6 of us for pancakes. Kitchen was lovely and clean, then a tip and is now not too bad, as I've emptied the DW and refilled it. Still probably half a load to go... I can fit 6 comfortably round the kitchen table without the extensions which is good to know. So hopefully it'll just fit 10 with both extra leaves.

hot water bottles are made, so i guess I should clean my teeth and try to get to sleep before it's time to get up!
