Sorry about the black eyes I started my first proper job with two black eyes after a car accident - not a good look
Love the property !!!!!! house number 2 for me very like one I posted some months ago in Devon if only it had a couple of extra bedrooms!
I am hooked on radley bags so I will be visiting my local BHF shop just in case.
Stage 2 of the DT transformation complete to save clogging up Hypno's thread I have posted the full details on my diary if anyone is interested.
Hope the ski trip goes well and look after yourself

Just home......
Some days just go well.....today was one of them......despite the 4am start!
We had to scrape ice off the car before we left, and the whole journey was in thick fog, but once the sun burnt through we had a lovely day, weatherwise, and got a little bit of sunburn, but not enough to be sore! DS has moved up an age group so we weren't expecting great things as he is skiing against the "big boys" now lol, but he exceeded all expectations and got on the podium
Then, we went to IKEA, and bought some stuff to help with storage, but that also looks lovely, plus the usual bits and pieces that we didn't really need but which found their way into our big yellow bags....but didn't spend a fortune so was pleased with all of that too.
And, to top it all off, Norwich City are promoted to the Championship - the boys did good. I've been a lifelong supporter, and going down to league one last year was so painful.....so to bounce straight back up again is just fantastic. And Norwich do have some of the best, and most loyal supporters in the country, (I think most clubs would actually agree!)......22000 season tickets already sold for next season.....not bad for a league one club. So the boys did us proud :T:T:T
So.....today goes down as a good day. My neck is killing me, but hey, who cares!Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0 -

Fingers crossed for them then! City going up has made mine and DS's day. It was already pretty good before 3pm, but that just topped it off for us. DD just rolled her eyes a bit :rotfl:Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes.

Morning Hypno, sounds like a fantastic day all round yesterday! :T
It was glorious here too and really makes a difference to how you feel. Here comes the Summer! :j (though there is a fair bit of Volcanic ash on the cars here)
Hope today is another good one x0
