Dan Carter is "legendary"

Claire - I passed him in the street yesterday - have to say he's much better looking in real life, too LOL

I had another viewing on our house this morning so everything spotless and shining. :A We are still sold but accepting viewings in case this one falls through.

It wont last till bedtime but it makes me feel good. I was thinking yesterday rather than have a cleaner :eek: I should pay someone to come and have a look round once a week so I would have to tidy up.

We saw a truely beautiful mellow old house yesterday - twice the size of ours and with a mortgage to match so fingers crossed they accept the cheeky offer. We are supposed to be moving before christmas and I did pack most of the none essential stuff as I de-cluttered. The major :eek: is the garage which is stacked to the rafters. None of it is mine, and I wouldnt have a clue what to throw away and what to keep so I shall join you Lynzpower in educating OH in FLYing this week.

Im reserving the discussion on the boogie till later

Although some more items have been sorted for the C shop today- and OH is now doing the ironing

Morning!

Denise, the barbie was fab - just the job after a hard week's flying!

Anyone seen TNG?

There seem to be a lot of Flyboys being moulded! DH had a project to clear the understair [STRIKE]dumping area [/STRIKE]store cupboard! He took everything out, fitted shelves, found boxes and repacked everything to keep, meanwhile recycling, freecycling, chucking a load. We can now get to everything, and see what we've got.

See you at the challenge!
