I know someone who would appreciate some 'lika tikkin bum-eggs.. .. she was well impressed with the nothing-like-hogwarts cake when I told her there were some in there!

I'll bring some round for you all.

Freja has been an absolute horror today..she hasn't slept all day.. won't go to bed.. has awful wind and thinks it is amusing to do huge smiles when I am telling her off for being a demanding little madam! I am hoping she will be better tomorrow when we are home.

Aww, love her...good girl, trumping like there's no tomorrow, best looking trumper in these parts.

And my house up north smells of rabbit pi$$, girl pi$$ or stinky boys depending on which room you are in!

I hate dogs inc. whippets though I'd LOVE a ferret.. however much they honk.. Chickens is always the way forward.:cool:

any'oo .. g'night 'hope tha day tomorrer is arl-reet ....

Aye up there our lass, 'ow's you and yours.

On a serious note, bring us back some Hollands pies...missing 'em a treat, 'specially cheese and onion and meat and potato.:)

Off for a list :j

I know it's not flylady... but I have to tell someone, as DH is still asleep after last night's wedding..... I've just paid off (decluttered?) the last of our credit card debts, and we now owe nothing on credit cards, and I'm really really chuffed. Had to tell someone! Hope you don't mind x

Sockdrawer thats great!!! I bet you feel brilliant!!
I'm aiming to do an hour or so's flying this morning whilst DD is at Grandmas. She won't be there long as she has a party at 12. I'm going to have a shower then get the WM on before we go out.
I was pleased with myself yesterday as usually after work at a weekend I will have a nap, waste time generally on the lappy etc. Instead I did a few items that needed ironing, cleaned the toilet and sink and tidied the front room ready for a quick vac round this morning. Not an awful lot but so much more than I'd have done before joining this thread!

Got back late last night from a hectic 24 hours in London - saw Martin Shaw in the country Girl (again!) - this time with a group of other fans and it was fantastic! Got to meet Jenny Seagrove afterwards and she was lovely...really lovely!

Got to visit my father-in-law - he's very frail - he's got lung cancer and has been told that it's terminal - but i'm not certain he admits it yet.... he's back to see the consultant on Wednesday to discuss the X ray results....

Otherwise spent a lot of time running around London - I was very proud of myself for jumping on and off the right tube trains - I'm not particularly confident about it but I managed with no mistakes!

Got the 6.30 train back last night but due to engineering works it didn't reach York until past 10 o'clock! And I spent the entire journey in the carriage with the faulty door which kept opening and shutting...and squeaking. Having paid £80(!) for my ticket I therefore declined the tempting offer of Weekend First on the grounds they wanted an extra £25 for the privelidge! So I shoved my headphones into my ears and came back with the dulcet tones of one delectable Martin Shaw reading Oscar Wilde drowning out the squeaking!

Today I shall get in the washing i hung out on Friday before I left...do some general tidying up and take DD1 to collect her new glasses. Unfortunately DD2 has not done any homework this weekend so far....so I will be encouraging her to get a blooming move on!

Right.......breakfast....
