    Mmmmm!!! Well, after that HHC I managed to cross a big fat nothing off of my list:cool:

    But what I did do is -
    Unload and reload the dishwasher.
    Scrub some of the clothes that are soaking in the bath.
    Hang a load of washing out.
    Put another load of washing in. (Where does it all come from?)
    Picked up the beads the kitten managed to knock all over the landing.
    Swish and swipe the kitchen
    Cleaned the mirror in the living room

    That's it I think. How did you do FFP?

    Anyone fancy another 10.15 - 10.45?

    Rach I would reoffer the item, if someone can't be bothered to keep in contact to arrange collection how likely are they to turn up at an agreed time? Just my view.

    Oops zero flying so far, been chewing the fat with Dad. :coffee: now and then off to Mr M's if anyone needs anything fetching.

  • Well done on your HHC Tag:T

    Nothing off my list either !
    But I did hoover down stairs, clear the worktops, tidy the livingroom, brush up some spilt stuff at top of the stairs, get delivery from Mr Postman, get washed, tie my hair up and shovel some slap on while talking to OH on speaker phone ;)

    wilf -
    I did a scrapbook for my Mum and Dad for their Ruby Wedding anniversary. It was a real labour of love, I totally underestimated how much effort it would be, but it was soooooooooo worth it. I did a family tree in it, and had photos of them as babies right up to present day, and pic sof our graduations, weddings, cildren etc. My Mum never says anything positive about anything but she raved on about the scrapbook for ages, left it out on her coffee table and showed it to anyone who came in their house. A great gift (if I do say so mself!)

    am going to go for it

    dont know where i will find the time though

    i could do with 24 hours in each hour!

    Just going to update my list in a mo

    Rach - I would re-offer aswell
    PenPen - hope you are feeling less tender and bruised today
    HollyH - ouch, ouch and ouch, have you strapped up your ankle - I constantly trip over fresh air - DH thinks I'm a walking disaster so hugs for you and your knees and ankle

    Reading Records - I had the same probs with my DS and his reading record, in the end I had to speak to the Deputy Head [not by choice but because everyone else was off ill!!] My DS had a new teacher who was focusing on something else a little bit too much so reading was going by the by but after the DH got involved she restructured the class timetable and reading was added into the daily schedule and now the reading record is completed at least once a week which I am happy with, he did do the group thing but I was concerned that he had been on the same level for sometime and should of moved up and lo and behold within 2 weeks of being heard on a one to one basis he was upped 2 reading levels. I do appreciate how stretched some schools are for time and resources and realise how diificult it can be to fit everything in but maybe the teacher just needs a little nudge as she has got bogged down with all the other stuff to be done [don't want to offend any of the teachers on here] HTH
