Thanks toots, I've lurked for ages, and there's such a great atmosphere on here I couldn't put off joining any longer! TBH it's the kitchen that has been bothering me the most, so I'd rather try and play catch up on it! I know this will get much easier after the first pass or two over the whole place! And OH is deffo getting roped in when he gets home, after he's made me a cuppa! :rotfl:

Tuesday's list completed and a big hello and hugs tootles xx

Also, thank you for all the others who welcomed me back. Boddy - DS keeps mentioning you whenever he plays with his 'little lego' as he calls it....he also asked if Boddy was the real name of the tooth fairy!!!! :rotfl:

List completed and quite a few extras done including taking all DS's badges off his cub top and sewing them on properly - they look much better now. Also nipped out to buy a new lunch box for DD as hers finally gave up today (she has had it since year 2 and is now in year 6 so I can't complain!!!). I also bought a biscuit tin in John Lewis because it was lovely and I've always wanted one (don't know why)....feel guilty for buying it now so think I'll give it to my sister for her birthday as she'll love it. Mmmm decisions decisions!

Hope you're all having a good day xx
