    Hi :j
    I'm in this week please - well, up until Thursday as we'll be off on hols :Tfor 2 weeks then. Thanks to Pigpen, Toots, Soappie and Toots III for your hard work.

    Toots - I still have the knitted chickens from when my 2 were kids and use them with creme eggs as place settings every Easter Sunday - there would be riots if I didn't! (kids are now 31 & 29 :rotfl:). Managed to find a spare one for grandson.

    Penpen - the transport suggested is perfect - sandy hugs for you.

    Hugs to those not feeling very well and welcome to the newbies and returners.

    Jx

    Hope it`s ok for me to join in. I`m a long time lurker of this thread but have never got around to taking part.
    I`ve been feeling a bit low about the state of my kitchen/diner/office (I work from home) during the last few days and really have to do something about getting it sorted.
    House has been a bit neglected during the past few months or is that years and I`m always so busy doing other things and not having time to do the housework.
    Look forward to getting to know you all.

    Morning all,

    Just wanted to pop in & wish sandy good luck for this morning. I'm at work, but if I see an elephant wander past I might just hitch a ride! I'll be thinking of you xxx

    Sweep and mop floor
    Clear and wipe worksurfaces
    Level Two
    Wipe units and appliances..
    Empty and wash out bins

    ETA - did anyone succumb to the Yankee spring megapack? I was v tempted - then had that problem with my credit card so I missed it. I didn't really NEED it though - so perhaps a blessing in disguise!

    Also are there any details for the Meadowhell meet-up? I might be able to make it depending on how DDs room decorating is going!
