Not much!!
I have a blinding headache which usually means a storm is afoot... so the bunnies are out now to take advantage and the washing hung out earlier is almost dry.. which is good as I have just reloaded both machines and have 2 loads waiting to go in.

Thank you Honey Bear0 -
Sunnygirl.. will do.. and thanks... was it not Wythenshawe that recently closed?
No...I think it was Hope in Salford? Can't remember for sure but I can guarantee that Wythenshawe is open as MIL works on SCBU there! I know they did a big move around with the Neonatal ICU beds and they were going to reduce Wythenshawe's but decided not to in the end. They're doing some renovation work there but they are still fully open.
Wythenshawe is where my two were born.0 -
