    Sexymouse yes I boiled the lemons in their skins and then cut them in half so I could take out the pips before blitzing them whole in the food processor, I think that's why its quite a tart tasting cake, good luck!
    Go hopefully into each new day, enjoy something from every day no matter how small, you never know when it will be your last

    Massive hugs out there for Valli's friend and Piggers sister. x

    Kazwookie, I'd send them a letter and a card stating that you wish them all the happiness for the future that you consider them as part of your extended family and that you'll raise a glass to toast them on the hour they get married.

    Push back your hurt and send out a really lovely message and see how that impacts on them.


    Done nothing other than book some travelodge rooms for half term, and considering my future and looking for houses to rent or buy.

    Hubby's appointment done and Rhys is snoozing.

    Dusty, Tooch she's not doing too bad. She had a bit of trouble at dinner time yesterday but someone saw it and put a stop to it. I've been told today that the letter should be with the new school middle of next week. I've asked the boys and they don't want to move so i'll let them be for now. I want to see how DD gets on first.

    Toots i hope you have a better day today.

    Kaz big hugs.

    Valli that's awful, all vibes being sent.

    Right hubby lit the fire so i'll get some sticks in, it's so cold here today.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    Afternoon all

    I've done all the lists this week (I do all the bedrooms on one day). Washing out on the line and the sun has just come out.

    I've read the posts but my brain hasn't retained anything, hope people are OK.
