Morning all.

TMD so sorry to hear about your cousin's friend. I know what it is to lose a friend suddenly (old friend's DH killed in industrial accident, 6 yrs ago) so I can empathise. Please don't apologise for posting about it. (((HUG)))

PenPen Thankyou! I've been wondering for ages, and tbh, had some pretty gross images wandering around in my head!:rotfl:

Westies have been fed and watered, as has Mr LW; one load of washing done and out on the line; HHYoga decluttered courtesy of the Wii.

Not sure if anything else is going to get done today, as I'm mega-jittery about the hossy this afternoon and can't settle to anything, or concentrate.:( Worst of it is, the whole visit is one gigantic waste of time, as I know they're not going to do anything for me, and probably won't even take any notice of the list of stuff we compiled last night to mention.:( And if the make me see the horrible male doc again I shall FREAK:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

*Composes self* Sorry - needed to get that off me chest.:o

When i was putting Ds2 to bed last night at 7pm i noticed the M & S bag with Ds1's school trousers in and realised he hadn't tried them on.:cool: They didn't fit, nor did the ones he wore last term.:eek: We had a mad dash to Tesco which didn't have any in his size so we had to go to the Big Big Tesco which thankfully did.:A We didn't get home until gone 10pm.

Good morning everyone!

Well as expected, I didn't have a call for supply this morning, and judging by the time, I won't be doing any this afternoon either. I guess it'll take a couple more weeks yet before people start taking time off. Still, it gives me more time to fly.

So far today, I've sorted through all of my emails, including one from friend who I've been helping with her planning, who said how grateful she is for all of my help. I've also been on the TES forums for a nosey - haven't been on there since the beginning of the summer. Have packed a back of gym stuff and put it in the boot so that I've got it ready in there in case I get asked to do PE somewhere or need a change of clothes (have learnt from experience last term when I was soaked to the skin on the way back from a sports day, so have packed underwear too). Satnav has also been returned to the car so that it's ready for if I get a call for supply.

Flying wise, I've put vinegar in the sink in the bathroom, as it had a ring of limescale around the plug hole (now removed), and I've put some toilet roll soaked in vinegar around the taps to do its magic. Kitchen is looking fairly tidy still, but will go and give it a swish and swipe in a minute. I know that Moon put the DW on this morning so that'll need emptying too.

Anyone fancy a HHC at 11.30? ETA Just read you're doing one already Holly so I'll join yours. lol

Medison (sp) cupboard all cleaned our and sorted, it's now been halved so i'll get a few things this week when i'm in the town. All dishes done by hand and now cleaning Rhys's bottles.

I need to sort my leather jacket out as it ended up with blood on it, so i think i'll soak it as it can't go in the WM.

Right i'll get his bottles finished and then have a cuppa.
