  • Hello
    Many thanks again to the band of 3 and mystery one.
    I feel a bit of a fraud coming on here every week as I don't do much nor post much but the small amount I do is making a difference and as I'm getting used to the lists I find myself doing stuff as I go. Trying to make a huge effort today to get my first ever star.

    Hello to everyone & thanks to the Motley Crew for getting us all sorted out on the Flying front (and every other 'front', come to think of it) :T

    Have decluttered DH and DS1 out of the door. DS3 is off school recuperating from his op. He woke up needing painkillers but seems fine in himself (the wonders of wii - all day - orders from hospital!!)

    DS2 is also off poorly. Again, OK in himself but has had a bit of a cold which has turned into a terrible cough - really barking - so he's off today and will just have to manage 'helping' his brother recover by accompanying him on the wii!! :rotfl:

    As for me, I'm disgustingly healthy as usual (apart from the usual medical diagnosis) :D

    Right, off to rediscover my kitchen.......it's here somewhere........hidden under a huge pile of everything :eek:.............I only went out for a few hours :huh:

    See you all later



    Notso
    I'm not so tired & not so desperate..... mainly thanks to MSE :D so just call me Notso.....
    Yes, I'm juggling and I might drop some.... but at least I'm trying ;)

    Hi all,

    I've been MIA for a while (I did let you know!) My house has never been in such a mess there are boxes everywhere and I can't remember the last time I cleaned the bathroom :o

    I've popped on to grab the list form the last few weeks as although I am moving soon (this weekend :eek:) I need to clean the house!

    Hope everyone else is well, get well and healing vibes to those who are not and ((hug)) for all that need them

    Hi! I'm in, thanks to the usual three.

    Sorry this is off topic, but I just had to share this. There is a thread on Folksy where a woman is asking for small teddies or stuffed toys for a rescue center for wild animals. If anyone has any, could you let me know?
    I also wanted to show you this post - this is one of the responses to her plea,and it's absolutely lovely
    Can I cuddle a fox cub instead? I accidentally rescued a fox from the hunt once – was walking my dog in the New Forest, opened boot of car and as aged dog climbed in so did running fox. Not sure who was more surprised, me, dog or fox! I drove off at speed with both in the back of the car and dropped him/her off later when the hunt had passed. Both were curled up together in the back of the car when I stopped. it was one of those ‘once in a lifetime’ moments. It was near to where a man was known to befriend foxes so I suspect it was semi tame.

    I'm really tired today after a busy, and emotional, weekend. I'm going to try to do some flying and to go for a walk if I feel up to it later. Will be back to post a list a bit later xx
