    Morning all

    Miss A and W decluttered to school, I need to get the caravan emptied and ready to go back into storage. When we got back yesterday it started raining so I couldn't sort it then otherwise it would have been done. Shouldn't take too long (she says hopefully!) Need to get downstairs looking presentable for our 'committee meeting' tomorrow night, although after this weekend I won't be drinking much :o

    :coffee: anyone before I start with my first HHC st 10.30

    If only you'd said... I need shelves and can't face the trip...


    I might be going back next weekend :D
    I'll send you a list ;)
    You are so well organised, greenbee, and such interesting recipes.
    Actually meal planning and eating better is one area I really need to work on.
    Can I ask, are these your own recipes or do you have favourite cookbooks?
    based on stuff I've found/made in the past. Basically I go shopping, buy all the stuff that looks nice and then work out how to use it. I know I need lots of soups and vegetable stews, and they're all quick to make and can go in the oven together, or the SC one after another.
    Morning all. Busy busy.

    Managed to clear the kitchen table this morning, but that's all.
    That's more than I've done... hasn't been done for WEEKS. but the DW is empty...

    Resists temptation to type in caps.

    "Him Indoors" just called: they're coming to replace the windows tomorrow. Yes, tomorrow. They'll turn up at 8am:eek::eek::eek::eek:

    As 3 of the windows are on one side of the block and the kitchen on the other, the fitters concentrate on the side that has most windows... so that's 2 bedrooms and the living room to sort out at the very least. Curtains down, furniture away from windows, shelves "wrapped" and, the worst of all... showered and ready for work by 8! :rotfl:

    Oh what the heck... they're replacing the metal framed, draughty, 1960's windows!:j:beer::j:beer::j:beer:
