    Morning All

    Congratulations to you all Kazw

    Good Luck for today loubitinigirl

    Not sure what's happening today yet but I need to start by washing up - I touched the wok last night with my finger - only lightly - but it meant I didn't wash up because of it. I also need to do a HHI to try and get back on top of it. Bedding I did yesterday so that's a start on today's list.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    Top news Kaz - congratulations to you and yours

    Diva - "great time in London" is an oxymoron as far as I'm concerned. I hate the place.

    Fortunately, the weather forecast has changed and it looks like where I'm going will miss the heavy snow they were forecasting at the beginning of the week so I won't need to pack walking boots just in case.

    Hey ho - onwards and upwards

    Didn't make it to the gym this morning, as I've been awake with a sore throat most of the night :mad: and no one wants my germs :D

    DW emptied and all the stuff put away. Kitchen furniture moved back to normal places. It needs a hoover/mop and the hob needs wiping down (pancakes appear to be messy :o) but otherwise isn't too bad.

    Trying to decide how to play things today. I need to be in the office for 5pm, and am going out after work with ex-colleagues. I won't stay late as I'm not feeling well, but I don't want to let them down after everyone has arranged to get together (some of them are coming quite a long way). I'm not sure how well my brain is working either...
