    toots that's beautiful!!
    Sparkle come and do mine please!! :D I used c1f oven cleaner, and then resorted to a br*llo pad.. and the burnt on bit is still there :mad:

    I'm getting through the kitchen list slowly.. today's list has gone better, mainly because it was still shiny from last week :j - so much so that I might even get to the extras!!

    Got my hospital appt tomorrow morning, so am hoping for a discharge from the fracture clinic and a referral to physio. We'll see. They'll need to do an xray, and there's a slim slim slim minute teeny tiny chance that I might be pregnant (given my advanced age :eek: and the time we've been trying very unlikely really :o) plus it's far too early to test. Am getting a bit worked up about whether to have the xray or not. Thoughts?

    On a more positive note, I'm thinking of buying a shed. And it'll be ALL mine for gardening bits n bobs, rather than for general storage, like the other 2 :eek: sheds seem to be (DH is a big time hoarder). And I'm not putting anything in it til it has shelving :D I'm going to have a flylady perfect shed!! :j:j

    hugs & spoons where necessary

    OK - you do your powerpoints and I'll get on with writing the website blurb - which I'm also putting off my doing anything & everything else....

    Moam
    Not doing well so far... I've got from too many slides (recycled from other presentations ;)) to not enough. And OH is in Brazil presenting at a conference so isn't here to talk sense into me :(
    this is the necklace I made last week of you are interested!

    That's stunning toots... so your Christmas presents are all sorted then??

    Pooh - sorry to hear things are tough. Fingers crossed something works out.

    Suppose I should find something other than wine and crisps for supper...

    If there is even an outside chance, don't risk the xray. You can always do it later if it turns out you're wrong...

    If it needs to be done have it done.. you would need 10,000 xrays to make a remote possibility of a proble for a feotus. Peeling potatoes is more likely to cause damage (toxoplasmosis is caught from peeling spuds.. more often than cleaning the litter tray in fact)
