    I hope you've got some sunshine today :) We've got another clear blue morning, it's strange! lol

    Annoying when workmen never turn up, I hope they have a very good reason as to why the didn't come and that they will come today instead :)

    (telling self off):(bad me haven't posted for a few days, have been fairly busy getting decluttering done and onto ebay, :D seems to be going rather well put an item on today and well 20mins later sold and within the hour in the post and on the way to buyer( if only they were all like that) :j

    It's going to be a lovely day weather wise tomorrow:j, so I'm going to do complete clean and bedding change and let blow on the line, then stock up the caravan ready for friday to go to wiltshire ( need a break and it's reasonably cheap for the weekend only £33.00 and taking food food with us so that's even cheaper.:)

    took dog walk today that was a challenge for both of us:D but we made it came back totally shattered sat down with cuppa and woke up 3 hours later:eek:
    debts are slowly going so going to carry on plodding on with those.:)

    sounds like you had a really good reason for being away from us, decluttering and ebay are more than enough reason

    :)Thanks 40sm

    yes had fabby day washing all dried on line, grass cut, gardened tidied and caravan ready (so I thought)

    DD had noticed a wet patch on the carpet in the van, went to investigate only to find one of the water pipes had worked lose :eek: causing dripping which had been going on for about a week so much so had to remove carpet luckily still had nice weather so put over line, all I need now is for the floor to dry out so I can put it back tomorrow before we go(annoyed? you bet!) Just for once I wish we could get going with out these tiny hick up's ( oh well could have been worse) to much of a nice day to get to me:)

    Well DH hubby reckons we'll be there by 6.30pm so as you can guess small bet "we wont"

    Any how weather looks fab for the weekend so going to enjoy as much as poss. legs have started to play up so will need to take my stick this weekend.:(

    enjoy yours Ruby XX
