    Afternoon all

    Happy Birthday Lady L :)

    Today's list completed.


    One load of washing whizzing round on the line. Dinner cooking, so going to catch up a bit while it's doing. Hope everyone's OK.

    I have decided hat while I am collapsed between flinging/idying/shuffling sessions I will list retro boho on ebay.. I have 17 things done so far.. and have a whole box to do now..

    I have sorted through 4 drawers, moved the suitcase of my stuff off the bed, filled a binbag and had OH put the sheets in the drawer.. so progress is VERY slow but it is progress!

    pigpen thats a ridiculous anount - could you speak to an undertaker over here who might be able to get the body realeased to them? you maybe making slow progress but its proper progress - dealing with stuff rather than just moving it about is far better - WTG you and OH!:T
    zoe nice to see you honey.
    hex awh huge hugs for you - you sound really worn out - get outside and let the sunshine revitalise you - the inside dust will still be there when the rain comes!! and if the boys are outside with you then they wont be making a mess inside!

    I am off to do stars and then I am off outside -having done some emails and other bits.
    catch you all later
    toots xx
    Peace will be mine
    could do better - must try harder

    That is speaking to someone over here.. apprently there is only one place that deals with it and it is the same company over there as over here.. so no option whatsoever.. they won't even let the funeral director here bill them once they have received him they want the money up front or they will not transport or release the body.. We can't get any money from his estate/bank this end so are arranging to see his solicitor over here in the hope that he has a will somewhere and the solicitor can access funds from the accounts.
