Boddy - great to hear your cat has returned, they're such a worry!
Maxonian - I might have left one or two little things at the TC for you...not much though! Had a lovely time with my friend. One of those days that just makes you smile. Hope you have fun when you go.
Lil_me - sounds like we masters of avoidance at the moment! I will complete a list today. I will!!!!

Working all day to day but will fly this evening. See, I've managed to avoid flying already!

Quick non-flying questions - does anyone have a htc Desire phone? I'm starting to think I need a phone I can email with as I'm away a lot and I've missed a couple of potential new clients by not replying asap. I'm don't want to spend a fortune and I'm not bothered about having an I-phone so any recommendations. Thank you.

Have a good day. Hugs to all those in need and fairy dust for LL and toots even though it's probably clogging up your vacuum cleaners and creating more flying!

Yes I do, I use giffgaff pay as you go, great phone, loads of great features. I especially like my email function.

:hello:Evening ladies! Yay, it's my weekend! Pity about the weather...

Busy week at school,aren't they all... and next week set to be even more frantic.

The teens have been reasonably good at doing a bit of flying, but we are hampered by the contents of DD's bedroom, which is still in the main bedroom, and the living room. Sigh. OH should be doing the wardrobe over the weekend, so fingers crossed that she'll be able to put things away next week.

I have speed-read the thread, but have not retained as much info as I would wish - so huge hugs to all those who need one this week!

Mollina_Girl

Good evening everyone,

We've just had dinner, dw loaded, worktops tidy and clean. :T

DH & I are going away for the weekend - well going tomorrow lunch time - so I'm just going to pack. (I'm so pleased that everything is washed and ironed!).:j

I'll catch up a bit later, might even get some of Fridays list done, but there again..................

Holds out a honey sandwich to poohbear for the terrible time you're having, plus here is a cup of steaming hot tea too to help you feel better.

I've degrotted and demoulded the side of the bath and it looks much better

not much else as need to study study study now

Mudbath

Thanks for everyone's comments about phones - all very much appreciated.

I've decluttered the dogs dinner, decluttered some bubblebath and done a quick five minute tidy upstairs. Think it's time for an early night!
