Well, thats not looking too bad at all :j, and I know what I need to do by the end of the week to claim some stars! So, off to make a start - I'm quite lucky just now as I've decluttered so much recently with moving house that there isn't too much else to declutter - until I get the last few boxes from my friend in a couple of weeks....!

Hope everyone's had a good day, just caught up with the post after a rather busy day at work, again, .

Off to clean the fridge for starters, last night I managed to clear the ironing, and am just about to empty the WM into the TD...

In my HHC I folded up dry bedding and blankets and took them upstairs to be put away later. I also packaged the cuddlies and accessories for collection tomorrow.
Tea is almost ready now and I'll hopefully be back for another HHC later.

Evening all,

Hope your DB and SiL are on the mend Boddy.

Hugs for you and yours mumof5.

Nice to see you back Diva:A

Good advice there Soappie with regards to personal information and such like, you can never be too careful.

Not got much flying done, have done a lot of studying though. Doing my much hated Numerical Analysis:( Its so tedious, much prefer calculus, geometry and number theory! Anyhoo, was very lazy and ordered pizza for dinner, its 2 for tuesday at dominos so not breaking the budget:D

lemanie

Evening all,

Good to see you back in the purple Diva, hope you feel in the pink soon, take care.

:wave:to all other flypeeps.

Have done very little flying because I have been working and supressing children all day.

My washing machine broke on Thursday last week and DH, who can normally fix everything, condemned it when we got home on Sunday. I ordered a new one and it will arrive on Friday.

Fortunately I had washed all the bedding on Thursday and was completely up to date. So today when I sorted it out into loads, I only had 10! I have handwashed all the smalls:eek:. Nothing like scrubbing the skid marks out of mountains of pants and that strange orange floor grime (I think it's the sand) from endless socks to make you appreciate the wonders of modern household labour saving devices.

I know I could have gone to launderette but I had to go for 4 weeks while I waited for H**ver to rebuild the blooming machine when it last failed (in warranty), that I really begrudge the cost.

Soappie - you have a PM.
