    But can't seem to remember which day off the week it was on, thinking it must have been kitchen/living room :)

    hi all

    been to hen do and back again now. It was carrying on until tomorrow but i'd decided one night was enough both time and expense! Was fun though and good to see old friends.

    just won some bargain baby clothes on ebay :)

    As it's the weekend -
    If you are invited to a party (birthday/anniversary) and you decline are you expected to still send a present, bearing in mind you don't normally exchange b'day/xmas presents with them?

    Greenbee anything is better than revising :p I think you should tell us your colleague's problems, then you can tell her 'Well the flyladies say you should...' I bet she'd never offload on you again :D

    I have started finding sources for my chapter of a group project. Due in 5th May so plenty of time... or not :o

    crafty - I wouldn't, but I don't often do presents anyway to be honest unless its close friends. I'd just send a card

    I wouldn't personally, I would send a card to celebrate the occasion but no present (hope that helps)

    Crafty - I agree with the others on this. Unless you really want to send a present, I wouldn't.

    I've cleared and hoovered the loft stairs and the tiny landing at the bottom - hope NN won't be too cross with me, as it was quite late. I really don't want to do more, but I've promised myself a bath after three more jobs:
    Put clean towels away
    Tidy said landing
    Tidy bottom of DS1's wardrobe

    If DH isn't back yet when I'm out of the bath I may just sort through the small amount of clean washing in the basket.

    :o I was joking... I forget some things get lost in translation on t'internet, sorry.

    Crafty - I think I'd send a card and not a present, especially as you said you don't usually exchange presents with the person, but I only really do presents for family and very close friends so don't have much experience sorry.

    I've decluttered some more words of my chapter onto the laptop, so I'm off to bed. Really tired at the moment, don't know what is going on.
