    I'm roasting a chicken and some onions and some potatoes and some parsnips - smells yummy.

    Cleaned out 6 cupboards in the kitchen and all the drawers, just 8 cupboards left now - why do I start these jobs?

    DD's haven't been having their fruit quota over the past few days so I just juiced the entire bowl and make them drink it.....I feel like a better mother now :D

    I am jealous.
    I'm having a fish finger butty with tomato ketchup. Its nice, but not a patch on a roast dinner.

    Been for a run on Saltburn beach. Ran into (not literally!) the HR person for the council I used to work for who has given me two contact names for housing. Good result (although my running was a bit pants today!)

    I've got a grilled fillet steak, but put too much water in the couscous. So fillet steak and couscous soup it is!

    Elfen, I want to see Clash of the Titans, glad you enjoyed it.

    Have finally moved the bookcase I got last summer into the living room where it's supposed to be, so I can put all my notebooks/writing/spare stationery/OU books there instead of just dumping them wherever they'll stay put. So that's the living room done, I think the kithcen'll be next.

    Pooky, yes I bought one on ebay. I need to phone the guy tonight to arrange collection, god knows where I'll put it though - I've got a perfect spot for it but that's taken up by a huge pile of carp that I've got together to ebay and not got round to. It can go in the living room very temporarily though, and from tomorrow I'm going to list at least 10 things each day to sell. And Linda's put me in touch with a teacher, so that's great.
