    Afternoon all,

    Since my last post i have

    Wrapped & posted book
    Took Ds2 to the park
    Had lunch
    Put washing out
    Cleaned rabbits out
    Staked tomatoes, pulled all the dead leaves off and put more compost in there
    Put more compost on potatoes & onions
    Watered outdoor plants
    Loaded Dw
    S & S Kitchen

    I may brave a HHI. The clean washing is taking up almost an entire worktop in the utility room and it's piled high too.:eek: I might seperate the ironing from the non ironing first to make it look a bit better.:cool:

    Hello

    Skimming thru quickly ....
    Will a blu-ray dvd play on a normal DVD player??

    Nope, sorry ..... it will play on a PS3 tho, if you have one available :D
    that made me laugh - anyone remember the dubbed drivel that was kids holiday viewing in the 1970's? white horses, robinson crusoe, belle and sbastian?

    eyes glaze over in wave of nostalgia....

    Oh my goodness .... yes, I am of a certain age ;) don't forget Champion the Wonderhorse :rotfl:

    Happy Anniversary to Mr & Mrs. Mumto 5 I can vouch for the fact you don't need any spanx honey ... you have a lovely figure :D xx

    Love to all xx
