Happy Birthday Hex and Sarah!:bdaycake:

Glamazon you have my sympathy, I have a similar problem here. They need a good kick!

ETA I can't do the master bedroom today as DH is still ill in bed. And I haven't managed to do the living room as I still have two men sitting in there too! I lived in the kitchen yesterday to keep out of their way or I might have done something I regretted.

Me thinks that bathrooms might be a good idea for today.

It's a heavy cast iron one and when I read up on how to do it, it said I don't have to fill it. And to be honest, even if it did move, I am sure it will be better than the mess it was in before. I mean can you imagine having an inch worth of sealant in the gap???!!!!

Re Castle Hill...nightmare, I tend to pass it regularly morn, noon and night and its always chocker, unless you can walk from the localish streets which is a bit of a walk, I'd suggest getting there earlier if poss, bring plenty of change for the ticket machines.

Thanks for that - friend was really worried because it is a 1 1/2 journey from us, 9am appt and her DD takes ages to get ready, every hair on her head must be straight :rotfl:but they were on their way at just after 7 so I'm hoping they managed ok.

He owes a LOT to the flyladies that the bedroom is so tidy there are no sharp implements lying around, cos I swear I might have maimed him this morning.:rotfl:

Sympathy to you Mrs B and Glamazon, I could cheerfully have stabbed OH yesterday morning (and everyone else who dared to come near me and the day didn't get any better ), you both made me laugh though :rotfl:and my OH has gone away for a couple of days so the house will stay tidy and I will like him again by time he comes home , they really should pay attention, be mind-readers, very tidy, see and do things without being asked and never, ever, ever question your parenting skills:rotfl:maybe Pigpen could start a school?

Soappie, you sound a bit flat this morning, hope the day improves and it stops raining.
Diva; hope all goes well with SW and she comes up trumps.
Have put bedding in WM and now TD and will do rest of flying later, also done meal plan and shopping list and will go do that later too. Should be working now but need tea and am putting off getting head round some complicated calculations/certificates/standards
