    Morning all

    Glad you all had a good time at the meet yesterday. DS2's playhouse was picked up yesterday, but otherwise I managed to waste a lot of time, somehow. Just sorting a late breakfast, then I'll start. Must get a star and reduce list to one side of A4 - with those extras, that will be a miracle. I may back out of going out tonight.
    See you all later.

    Well I haven't managed to add to my word count yet this morning, I will have to be a bit more stirct later.

    Off out in half an hour to do a start-up climbing course with OH. It is the 2nd part of my birthday present and after this we can go to the climbing centre without needing any of the staff. 3 hours, think I may be aching a lot afterwards!!

    Morning all

    Still nice out but more hazy sunshine and a cool wind. But a good drying day, one load of washing out and it's nearly dry already.

    Dusted downstairs and vacuumed right through. Did a roast dinner yesterday because DH and DDs 1 & 2 have gone walking today, so I don't have to worry about that. I'm looking after the old dog :) She's asleep on the settee....

    While DD2 is gone I've tidied out her car. It's like a skip and has been annoying me for months! Only took about 10 minutes. I've chucked a carrier bag of rubbish, folded up the car cover and put it back into the bag it belongs in and put a cardboard box in the boot with everything else in one place. There was a horrible stained wet tea towel in the boot so I've given that a wash and hung it out to drip dry. It's still stained but it's much less revolting now. I'm assuming it's been used as a rag.

    Going to catch up on postings now, hope everyone's OK.

    Just to say juliejim is now on her way back home so safe travel vibes for her. It has been lovely having her to stay and getting to meet up with so many of you this weekend :D :j

    I now have to rush as I'm off to Wembley and my train leaves in just over 20 minutes!!

    I am then heading to Belfast earlyish in the morning so I may not get back on here until Thursday evening / Friday morning.

    Have a lovely week everyone xx
