Afternoon all
Been down town two days running (ooh the excitement!) and haven't got as much done as I should.
I've just mopped the kitchen floor and am going to have a look at the washing machine filter when the floor's dry - haven't done this since I bought WM in Sept.
I'm not going to get much done in the main bedroom - I'm saving my energy for the kids rooms which are going to be grim - need to empty out more stuff from under the beds:eek:

Afternoon, folks
Happy Birthday Hex and Sarah.
I'm thinking of starting a training class for all our BDs. They clearly need to learn how to Lie Down And Be Quiet!:cool:
I'm another advocate of using the phone alarm as a tablet reminder; I'm on sustained release morphine, which is best taken at the same time each day, and 12 hours apart, so my phone squeaks at me at 07:30 and 19:30 each day.
On to flying..... I had a mad fit today, and rushed around to get it all finished.:D
