:hello: Morning all, looking like some are flying high today.
Done all the usual morning bits and now the moment I have been dreading getting on top of my desk, piles around it and family room in general - hoping chimney sweep knocks on the door any minute so I can put it off again - 15 minutes at a time I know - here goes with the first one ads for DS3 junior bed and pushchair.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -

Thanks Lynz and ((((hugs))))) to you. Hope things sort themselves out for you.
It didn't seem like a lot as it was spread over the weekend - maybe I've just had my "Flybulb" moment.....:dance:There's a real buzz about the neighbourhood :dance:0
