Yeah, it seems i haven't achieved much today. I did do a DW load and the WM is on. I also S&S the kitchen after tea but that's about it. I have a pile of clothes waiting to be ironed, but i'm trying to decide whether to bother doing those or read my book. :rotfl:
Well, tomorrow is another day, but i will be out most of the day at baby & toddlers and lunch with friends.Sarah.

No flying so far for me this week as lounging around after work and running.
Really will catch up a bit tomorrow as I refuse to spend all weekend cleaning as per usual - I want to go out for a day instead and relax before my master's starts - feel mega excited about it but also a little apprehensive too!

Looks as if I will be decluttering a lump of money in the near future.
My neighbour's damp seems to be being caused by the state of my dormer roof - the BAD state apparently.
Will need to get a roofer as soon as possible - then work out where to find the money :eek:0 -

I'm very confused, I posted in the thread about the Great British Waste Menu on TV later earlier on today and my post seems to have vanished, does anyone have any idea as to why it might have been deleted? I know I definitely posted as I checked back a while later. Sorry to be a complete n00bSo, there are these boys,
