hi everyone :wave:
not too much flying here again today - kitchen S&S, bathroom S&S, WMx1, dried & ironed. And that's it for todaya definite case of CBA!! Had work this morning, so that's my excuse & I'm sticking to it!
I appear to have created a gardening fiend for a DD - she's been helping me pot on some teeny busy lizzie seedlings, and doing a brilliant job.. she does have a tendency to over water tho.. (she's 6!)
A house up on the lane was burgled on Saturday :eek: .. shockwaves round the village. So since then the dogs have had the run of the house when I'm out - usually they get shut in the snug. My old girl wouldn't hear burglars if they stood in front of her, but my young one would chew them to pieces:D:D:D
hugs to everyone (whether you like it or not)

They do all sorts but tracking down potential heirs is one of their services - like "Heirhunters" on the TV. If someone dies without a will their money passes to the Crown - who publish lists of these things. Companies like this one try to track down the heirs and reunite them with the money - for a fee of course. Call them and see what they have to say - nothing to loose and maybe something to gain? Good luck!

OH saw Adopted grandson (6) today, it seems he has a bump on his head, he was asked how it happened, and it seems that he and his aunt aged 4 (his natural granddad was a little bit naughty with a 20year old!!) were using a bed as a trampoline, and he bounced off on to the floor, hitting his head on a side table!! anyway, he then went to my bedroom out there, and insited on searching it, including the wardrobe and chest of draws looking for me as he cannot understand why OH is there and I am not, and kept asking for Christmas lego!!!!Breast Cancer Now 100 miles October 2022 100 / 100miles
