Cold but sunny here - may need the wood burner on later.

I am just back from BnQ , the Loughborough one had cushions, and duvet covers reduced to £3 and some very reduced curtains if anyone needs any.

Off to get as much as I can done outside - WM is on for the second time, DW is on and sorting the paperwork mountain just isnt appealing to me .

Morning...just.

clean cooker,
hoover front room,
buy wrapping paper,

I've spent the last hour and a half in DD's bedroom. The room is now tidy just need to hoover and clean the window but i'll do that once the boys room is tidy. That may take some time. :rotfl:

Coffee break first and then i'll get started.

Valli

hello all

I have a stinking cold

I am less than inpressed with the Vallikids. washing in the basket AFTER I have finished washing. DS will run out of clothes this week unless he does a load of washing himself. DD's sandwich box is still in her school bag - so she'll be sorting that one out, too.

Washing on line, anyway, as it is bright and breezy here.

Now just going to see if any watchers have taken the plunge and put bids in.

Ho hum

10 watchers and no bids...

they must all have had one to sell themselves then...

Might I enquire which boots you have from this range?

I'm looking for a new pair and nearly caved in to some uggs. Now having a rethink and I wiuld like a pair that are good for my arkward fitting right foot and a pair that last well too with heavy wear

Yes I was wondering too Dusty ?

I was looking at them last week but they are a lot of money.

I've been into town - library, M&S and got birthday cards that I needed. Just having a coffee then it's full steam ahead until lunch....

Right, started to feel a little bit better and was about to put some washing on the line as the clouds have turned grey - not too sure now if its worth putting it out now.

Think I might take some off the lighter jobs off the list - off to find it now

I have these boots and have been delighted with them.

I wore them all winter last year and they still look like new (I did not wear them in the snow). You can wear them with the furry bit turned up.

Trying to sort out DS1's laptop problem at the moment and then an hour on the hedge.
