    elfen,

    can we send you our washing to hang out? :D

    and my fences to paint?

    I've showered now so it can do what it likes.

    Afternoon all :)
    Well the sun was out here, but as soon as I realised that neither me nor OH had any clean uniform for tomorrow and chucked a load in the washer in a mad panic, its gone overcast and windy and looks like its gonna rain any second. So I just hope I can get it dried in the spare room by the morning!!
    In other news, I've bought my first two Christmas presents this morning (after being so shocked at you lot mentioning it last week) and a yummy smelling Yankee Candle tart for my oil burner (that is called Christmas Cupcake!!) not doing too well on the NSDs this month, but my living room smells lush :)

    Got another fence panel done but it's chucking it down now.
    Nothing for it but to admit defeat and have a shower I guess. Only had 1 more to do and that would have been 1 side finished.

    Oh no bookie, how frustrating. It is a bit like having to stop ironing with only one item left - v annoying!

    Just been to Tesco because I forgot to do an online delivery - remind me not to do that again. It is a nightmare pushing my daughter in a wheelchair with a trolley attached to the front of the wheelchair as well. People do not get out of the way and I need a bit of room and time to stop with that lot! It also makes my arms ache as well.
