Monday and Tuesday done stars please. Apologies for the poor effort this week, I've been indundated with visitors plus been having to sort out for a trip away to visit relatives (going today & back on Monday) so loads of extra washing/clothes sorting/getting in the loft to search for suitcase plus getting DD2's room ready for visitors to come back with us on Monday so they have room for the inflatable double bed & the cot bed for their DD. I've been a little distracted from the lists this week
Back on the money saving wagon again!0 -

Morning all
Just a quick catch-up with the thread, then I must get moving. I've checked my e-mails and 10 people are already interested in DS2's old playhouse on freegle.
Hope everyone has a good day.
Happy birthday, Lemanie. I'll borrow DS1's laptop this weekend to sort out facebook stuff (not allowed to use my work laptop and PC doesn't have internet at the moment).
Natty - best of luck vibes for your appointment.0 -
can you not persuade her to come to Meadowhall which is, of course, despite being in Yorkshire (shudders) shopping NIRVANA...
Would have loved to have come, but we have specific shops to do in Derby that aren't in Meadowhall.
Good luck with your valance, non-iron sounds good to me!
I'm still off next week & have a visit to Dunelm to do to get the last few bits for DD's room, so shall be in Spiretown/Chezvegas if anyone is free?
Hope you all have a great time this morning,0 -
Happy Birthday Lemanie
Dusty your kitchen is a lovely shape, and as you know I have major Aga envy.
Change of plan re Meadowhall, DH says just to leave SSs to it, and realistically neither will be up much before 1pm by which time I should be back. I just showed the littles that there is a Hotel Chocolat and some pictures of the cakes in Starbucks and they are happy to go :T.'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0 -

2011 Goals declutter the house :eek: decluttered 42 items :j0 -
Whereabouts are you then? I'm nowhere near the South meet but I'm going anyway which is why I'm going today for the weekend instead of tomorrow as froddy has very kindly said she'll put up with me for 2 nights!
I'm a bit southeast of you juliejim, Rugby in Warwickshire (junc 1 of M6)....about 70 miles down the M6
Maybe one day I'll manage a meet. It would be really nice to meet some of you lovely ladies on here. I'm really enjoying my time on here (a bit too much time sometimes :eek:)
Have a good time... and wave at me as you go past our house (are you going that way? where is the meet? can't remember now.....shuffles off looking for memory....I'm sure it's here somewhere......) Actually, thinking about it, you'll probably veer off to M5 territory, mind you, what am I saying, I don't even know where the meet is, so how can I know which way you will go? I'll stop talking now....
NotsoI'm not so tired & not so desperate..... mainly thanks to MSE
so just call me Notso.....
Yes, I'm juggling and I might drop some.... but at least I'm trying
