    they'll start a compulsory euthanasia programme next for 'getting rid' of everyone over the age of retirement so they are not taking money from the country when they are non-productive... it'll be like Logans Run!!

    Morning everyone.

    Thanks for thinking of GGD. Ive had no news yet which Im thinking is a good sign. DD had not heard anything by the time I went to bed. Off to do dailies then going to see mum. Then at the doctors later this afternoon. Ive stopped looking at the news before I chuck something at the tv. DD amazed me last night by saying she voted and was asking questions. I must have got through to her at last.

    Hugs for everyone specially Toots, Lady L and Diva.

    Holly you did fab. *stamps foot* I'm not even in the cabinet. Can pen pen and me be Science Ministers??


    In my HHC, I...

    stripped children's beds, cleaned sink and loo, put away some clothes, put dw on, did a binbag dance, sterilised toothbrushes (attempt not to spread the bug), made my bed, collected dirty clothes.

    Drinking lemonade now and feeling wobbly.

    eta just looked at the photo of our leaders, and Cameron must be wearing lifts in his shoes or standing on a box, as he's significantly taller in the photo than Clegg.

    Second coat of gloss done in the bathroom, so thats that finished.:D
    Need to get myself and Rhys ready for half 11 as DD has the dentist and i need to get her glasses fixed and lift DS2's glasses. Then back to school for her and i'll get on with painting the bathroom ceiling.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    Grateful that did make me laugh! I can just see the two of them skipping...

    I love the idea of a flylady govt, we'd have them sorted out in no time! First on the budget - stardrops for all! Did anyone see the tory last night blaming the media for the protestors outside No 10? He was adamant that it wasn't because Cameron is chief KH.

    Have decluttered another speaking exam - no more for two years! Although next year is like one loooooong speaking exam :eek:

    Time to find me a list (does anyone else always sing the song from Pirates of Penzance about having a little list? Just me? ... okay then :o)
