    Thanks, Sandy, I'm (fingers crossed) not too bad today; hope it lasts.:)
    Can you just iron for half an hour then stop?
    Can you sit down to it? On the rare occasions I iron (Mr LW has to set the board up for me as I can't lift it) I have it set low, and sit on my computer chair.
    Just having a spot of lunch right now, then back to Flying.:o

    Glad to hear you are having a better day. Long may it last.

    Actually I have just finished sorting it and I have started being really ruthless. I used to iron everything but now all I do is DH's shirts and the odd thing that looks very crumpled. I don't even do school uniforms anymore.;) All I have today is 5 shirts and DD party dress so it shouldn't take to long.

    Good idea about sitting down, it's never occured to me before:o

    Am having a rest now, maybe done a bit to much:o

    I'm in for HHC at 2.

    Went shopping this morning and got stuck in traffic on the way back. DD2 fell asleep in the car and is nonplussed about nursery this afternoon. She's eating a dippy egg and soldiers and watching cbeebies, she can hardly keep her eyes open. I must get a blackout blind for her bedroom as she's getting up with the sun - things will only get earlier on that front.
