Hello all.
has visions of Kaz leaving a large freezer in the style of Quentin Crisp or John Inman or that Louie from Pineapple!
I use Quorn mince; I think I shall henceforth call it Quentin mince.:rotfl:
xxJoxx I've no doubt you're well on your way by now, but I hope you have a safe journey and a good time.:j
Newlywed take it steady with the list til you get properly settled into your new job. No-one's gonna die cos the windows aren't washed.

Humphh! All I ever find under mine is dust bunnies and the occasional escaped earring back.:p
From what I remember, the date for the nisi knocks flowers into a cocked hat!:D Sorry to hear you're still hurting though.:(PMSL... Happy 16th wedding anniversary to me.. I didn't get flowers.. BUT I did get a date for the nisi through from solicitors.. PMSL!!!
My ear and mouth still hurt..
I'm struggling to concentrate on anything today – I guess it's the “fallout” from coping with an evening out last night, specially as the pub was very busy.:eek: The lads (Mr LW and pal) enjoyed themselves though, so that's the most important thing. Just need to get my equilibrium back now.:oIf your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -

on the decree nisi piggers...
s'pretty straightforward from here on in ....
I once knew someone who'd been married more times than me and had her decrees pasted up in the pub!
Oh shoot

[STRIKE]Morning[/STRIKE] Afternoon all
Have done loads, honestly, but it's all been in the garden. Have re-labelled everything I did yesterday :cool:, sown seeds, dead-headed, filled another compost bin and covered it over, wheelbarrowed things around to the correct places, hand-pollinated squash plants...
Now it's w-a-a-a-y too hot out there, so I've come in to do some flying.
DH is working at home, and needs lunch for 1:15, so I'm going to try to:
* Empty the dishwasher
* Hang up the washing
* Clear up the kitchen counters
and
* Make lunch
before then... Proper cleaning follows, this afternoon!
Off I go....
MissH
