    Well, I had a lovely evening with Frodders, Greenbee and JJ (strict alphabetical order!) and I think I've managed not to poison them... I hope they enjoyed themselves.

    BB loved the company but was v. vocal on occasions for some reason - not like her at all.

    soappie - it was lovely! Thank you soooo much for inviting us all :A
    And BB was entertaining us :p

    And thank you for your profound 6000 post :T

    Morning all,
    Not being pedantic but from your user stats it is actually 6.12 posts per day:p

    Just goes to show there are lies, damned lies and statistics as well as pedants :p

    Actually slept in late for once - must have worn myself out with all that deep thought so late at night.

    It's another fine day - must see'f I can find something left to wash to make the most of it!

    Builders have left so much junk in the shed (which my dad had organised very carefully) that I can't find the oil. So I'm going to have to risk driving to halfords to get some more... because the garage always give me a spare I don't even know what I need :o and have had to find the bill to look it up.

    So this morning's plans have been adjusted. Off into town to fill up with oil, buy a fleece some eggs and soured cream, then back to make SIL's cake and sort out her birthday present (which is around somewhere!). But first, the washing needs to go on the line...
