    polkadot hugs for your family and for you

    Re the wall drilling, dh has been drilling above the french doors on an outside wall but he drills in and there's a big gap so he decided to try to drill into the brick of the outside wall, 4 " screws that he bought were not long enough. I have looked at the site and they ones that look like wings may work but DH thinks the weight of the curtains will pull the baton off the wall.
    Have done all my ironing and am sat watching a family of 7 kids under 13 living in a guest house and they are pigs:eek: the 2 parents are minging and are allowing an 8 month old to crawl around on the floor which is just disgusting. Kim is setting the kids on like a little army- now I know how you get it done Pigpen (although I'm very sure your house is absolutely nothing like this one!!)

    sorry I'm addicted to it and my recorder is set to record all of them on more 4! It was on on Friday. How sad am I? I find it's a good motivator for my 5 year old though!

    Got fedup of Jersey boys and now listening to Dolly Parton.

    Yey a Dolly fan - I'm famous for listening to Dolly with a glass of Rose. Thinking of your family and sending vibes to keep them safe. I'm in Hertfordshire. Why don't you have the tea party for a christening for the babe? It is such a fun idea.
    has anyone used the eco friendly Asda Kitchen and Hob Cleaner and is it any good?

    Why not mix some water with a bit of white vinegar and a squirt of washing up liquid in the empty bottle and use that.

    Soappie, I hope you feel better tomorrow - you've overdone it with your 3 bird spectacular.

    Hope all the sick kiddies are back on form tomorrow

    Ironing all done and most of the mending.
    WM on

    Off to bed in a minute but a quick list first.

    Polkadot - vibes for your family and anyone else affected, thank you for the info re monthly stuff [already forgotten the name of it but going back to look in a mo]

    Hi to all the newbies and welcome

    Pigpen - loving the list for tomorrow, I'm hoping for nice weather to do some gardening so that list will be achieved and hopefully some potting of seeds

    Have ironed for an hour and got through half of it so will hopefully crack on with some more tomorrow if it rains

    Sleep well everyone

    Helen x

    PS Rosepink - thinking of you honey and hoping you are feeling better
