:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:How did you get on sockdrawer?
I got distracted by a lovely guy with a gorgeous Irish accent canvassing for the Red Cross
Completely understandable Hellyboo
I got the bathroom and downstairs toilet cleaned,
The pc, phones and printer cleaned
dusting done in hall along with various declutterings of cardboard etc
Decluttered desk and put stuff away.
I kind of ran over a bit, but stopping for a cuppa then off to do hoovering etc.
Thanks for the HHC

Good evening all :beer: I got a puncture when I was almost at work
and no time during the day to fix it
So I got the bus home :j and am now home early so going to tackle the dining ROD (where we've been dumping toooooooooooooo much stuff recently
). I've left my bike in an interview room at work, so need to go early in the car tomorrow to liberate it, as I don;t think my colleagues will appreciate having to interview around it
DS has agreed that we can have a Mother and Son bonding at the weekend to mend the puncture :T (I love having a son and a daughter :T ).Thursday.. I have mediation with KH
Every time I see that I read MEDITATION :rotfl:That is Eid ul fitr.Today is Eid ul adha,which is to mark the pilgrimage to mecca. Hope you dont mind me saying that
Interesting - I need to read up on this

Hex - doubled up £40 to get £80 of wine vouchers but I chose all the wines on offer which took me from £150 to £80.94. So, only 94p to pay. 18 bottles should last over christmas (and some!).
Dusty - think the glass is nearly out...just need to soak it again tonight and then have a rummage!!! Thanks for asking.
Right, decluttering dogs round the block, then decluttering children to mum's house and then decluttering dad to hospital appointment. Also need to pick up some toys i've ordered at tesco (with the double up vouchers of course!!).
Right....off I go xx0
