    Good morning everyone :beer: We had a lovely day in Liverpool yesterday - DD loved the university (keen to do fine art or fashion degree there) and DH thought Liverpool and its poeple really impressive :)



    Glad to hear that Penpen - we went to Liverpool University and loved the uni and the people! It's changed a bit since (I went just after the toxteth riots) but the people have a great warmth.

    Just listening to desert island discs - Tony Adams - it's a very moving listen...sniff!!

    Off to do HHI
    :jFlylady and proud of it:j

    Morning all not a lot done here still yesterday went wrong from start to finish got to meeting for 10 only to find out it had been changed to 11.30 and no one had bothered to tell me :mad:
    after meeting got home sorted ebay parcels and documents to tax car went and did that and got some shopping got home put kettle on went to tidy bathroom came downstairs and royal mail had put a card through the door saying they tried to deliver a parcel well it would have helped if they had actually knocked on the door:mad:

    chocolate-cake-ck-221991-l.jpg

    Ooh penpen, that cake looks gorgeous! Thank you! Yes I'm 27 today (don't like that number though - I have a thing about odd numbers).

    So far, MIL2B has given me a garden tool set and some gardening gloves (I borrowed her's the other day to do the weeding), and Moon has given me 2 Jack Johnson CDs. :T

    Have just had my breakfast, so I'm going to go and get dressed, and then start on the flying before it gets too hot today.

    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
