    Bless them Mum is pottering away in the garden. Dad is watching some football on the telly. We were supposed to go to Gunwharf but I had a rubbish blood sugar and am shattered. I am going to do ironing to music!! If anyone is around and bored, do post!!!!!

    Hi SW,

    Just to say hello!

    Am in the middle of a house tidy - have a friend arriving on Wednesday and I need to do a massive sort out - I know I should be throwing things away but am stuffing them into drawers and cupboards, which are on the verge of collapsing!

    I just cannot part with ANYTHING! Thing it may be an age thing!

    Hope your blood sugar returns to normal soon.

    Enjoy the ironing. ;)

    I do that as well, SW.

    Cram everything into cupboard and drawers and then find that everything is creased, so need to get out the iron!

    Oh dear,

    We are not very good at this housekeeping thing, are we?

    And I thought I was the only one who did things like that!

    Let's add it to our Manifesto.
    1.We must not iron. Ironing is banned.
    2.Wardrobes and cupboards must be much larger.

    And then we would need larger houses for them all to fit in?

    :jI am fine. Mum and dad are entertaining my nieces (aged 9&10). They are picking flowers from the garden. I have just been given a vase of purple flowers of all kinds. We have talked them out of making mud pie!

    I am going to carry on with my ironing. So far 3/38 blouses ironed!!!!:mad:
