    Ooh - I fancy a new one of those. Mine is not quite as old (big, white plastic rectangle from Betterware), but I'd like something prettier. It would need to be big, though. Where did you get yours?

    Greenbee, I must be a real slob as never iron my bedding - too much faffing for me, but I have to say it does like nice when it's done. Of course Mrs Perfect (MIL) always does it - 'nuff said :mad: Any news from Sandy?

    Bear in mind that I don't have children, so ironing my bedding is a luxury I (theoretically) have time for.

    No news from Sandy. I'm hoping this means that she's at home with family. I will ask her tomorrow just to get in touch and let us know how she is, because otherwise we'll all worry.

    Have a wonderful day tomorrow Toots. Hope your guests are keeping you in order ;)

    Had a lovely bath... read a book (Lloyd Alexander - The High King. I had it as a child, and have hung on to the rest of them an re-read them, but this was lent to a friend who didn't return it :mad: so I indulged myself last week and ordered a replacement). Off to make a hot water bottle and get some sleep now that I'm clean enough to make use of my nice clean bedroom and bedding!

    I haven't moved since my last post. Why is it no one talks to you on facebook all night then when you're just about to log out someone starts talking? I'm moving now.

    DS3 has given me a stick to rub on my specs so I can read (Prima) in the bath! He bought some to stop the visor of his bike helmet misting up.


    L-l hugs for you today. Sorry I am a bit late, it must be a very difficult day for you.

    toots I will be thinking of you and praying for you tomorrow

    I have painted and painted and painted. Living rrom is still upside down but I'm loving the colours, just hope the red doesnt need another coat! Really pleased to get 2 coats of both colours in 1 day as the last time it was decorated I didnt manage a 2nd coat in 7 years :o, Just glossing to do now.

    Love and big hugs to Sandy, LadyLib, Toots, rosepink, and anyone else suffering.

    Miss A and W - hope you are having a wonderful time

    Just realised that I hadnt got round to posting for a few days - have done really well and earnt another star. Need to hoover round and knock a few things off tomorrow, and hopefully DH is giving me a hand to start a big sort out. Did b****r all today (oooh I mean yesterday) as it was my birthday. Had a nice relaxing day.
    Was hoping to hear more news of Sandy, I hope the chemo has a good effect and that she is okay. Such a nice thing to do LL to support her as you are. Cant be easy, but you are obviously a really caring person. Sorry to hear about the sad loss of animals, they are part of the family, and it is so sad when they pass. Huge hugs being sent from kent xxxx
    I really hope the confirmation later today goes really well for toots and AnWmum and A and W have a brilliant time. The cathedral sounds beautiful, and you obviously will be being supported by an awful lot of very caring and lovely people. enjoy your cake!
    Sorry to have missed anyone else, am propping my eyelids up with matchsticks at the mo! Really should go to bed, but just caught up with Dr Who (not bad - def wouldnt kick David Tennant out of bed though:D)
    Currently have BD chained at the end of the bad, so not too bad! Thanks for all your support peeps, nighty night - lilo
