**Describe the shaped colour-coded buttons used by blind or visually-impaired people. (anyone ever heard of this?)

Dorastar...take a look at this and this. Should explain it for you.

Still not finished the online shop. Nearly there though. One of those annoying weeks where you need washing powder, bleach, tea, coffee which bumps up the cost loads. :mad:

DH is driving me mad too....if he asks one more time 'what's for tea?' I might slap him. It wouldn't be too bad but he asks me and I say I don't know, we've got nothing in, then he asks me again 10 minutes later....when I still don't know cos' we've still got nothing in!

Just in a CBA and general bad mood...no reason for it...I just am!

Flying...I did manage to load the DW and put it on and DH vacuumed the lounge. That's it though.

Tell him it's strawberry surprise.
If he probes, tell him it wouldn't be a surprise if you told him anything else.
If what you finally cook doesn't include strawberries and he queries it, tell him that's the surprise - there are no strawberries.
If you do cook something that includes strawberries, then tell him the surprise is that it does have strawberries in it.

Failing that, tell him fresh air pie and windy pudding...

Afternoon all

Been AWOL again yesterday and today. Last night I had a couple of friends over for a drink and a gossip. We gossiped until almost 2am :eek: and then I had to be up for a GP appt for Miss A.

Yesterday FIL rang inviting us for lunch out today so the cinema had to go on the back burner (might do this tomorrow instead), after lunch we tried to get Miss A some new cheap trainers to no avail but both of them got a game (read lego for W!) after getting a small windfall c/o Nanan and Grandad so they are happy.

We are gallivanting off out again tonight and need to be leaving here in the next 20 mins.

I have only had time to skim the thread (you lot can gab!) but want to add my condolences pigpen and give generalised hugs to one and all.


ETA in this house soappie it would be 'three runs at the pantry door' for tea :rotfl:

He'll be waiting a bl!!dy long time!!!!

Feel like polishing off the left over HM cherry pie and making do with that! DH'll still be hungry though.

Suppose I might forgive him....he has bathed both girls and is currently going over 2 & 5 times tables with DD1.

Plan for tonight...pack the girls off to bed then study and knit. I've started making a little bag.

Dinner cooked, and kitchen cleaned up

Green house seedlings watered, tey have really got a move on, I can see me potting on for some time.

OH's taken Ds2 with him to see his friend quickly so i'm going to do a HHC now. I just accidently shut OH's hand in the car door :eek: he asked me something so i opened the door to listen then shut it again as he was reaching round to put his seatbelt on.:o Thankfully he's ok as i was laughing too much to ask.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::cool:

Marru

Ok - I had fantastic multi quote and I messed it up :mad:

I have 5 guninea pigs so they pretty much fully occupy my spare room. They are lovely thou.

Thank you for messages lovely ladies. I am feeling rather virtous today. Said to DD (5yrs) that she can only keep cuddly toys that can fit into the toy basket and when I packed the rest to go to the charity shop she didn't seem to mind (I actually found it harder than her) so better get those bags into the car promptly before she changes her mind. Lots of stuff decluttered from DD's wardrobe to go to: charity shop, friend's girls, bin.

I am not that far from two stars. Only need to mop the kitchen floor for Monday and vacuum DD's room for Friday. Tuesday is in progress and Wednesday not started, Thursday not even thought about.

Off to dish out very late tea we were too busy tidying to realise the time .
