Morning all.

Penelope penguin Not sure where you have been but welcome back:D The cakes look gorgeous, I've put 3 stone on looking at them.

Greenbee I feel like I've done a days work just reading your post.

I had 13 hours sleep last night:o So feel quite energetic today which hopefully means I can catch up on the lists. DD is off school today because it's a polling station so she wants to bake. Not sure what we will do though, my skills only stretch to fairy cakes:o

I might even clean the oven but don't hold me to it :rotfl:

Craftyscholar

Someone sandpapered my throat (which probably means I will get a cold next)
Anyway at least I can 'talk' here.
Quiet day I think - apart from voting

Welcome back pen-pen
AnW'sMum posi vibes for a successful day
Jojo and greenbee - love the description of you both hard at work :rotfl:
Carlsberggal - great news :T
toots - hope you feel better after a night's sleep - slow down young lady!

OK let's see if a shower will wake me up
