    evening everyone :hello:

    went to collect my chandelier today.. only to find that there were a couple of droplets missing.. so I got it for £20 :j:j which is a super-top bargain :D:D So DH and I have been making plans to decorate our bedroom. Very exciting!! We've been here nearly 3 years, and it hasn't been done for about 20 years I think, so it's well overdue.

    I've just made a load of twinks hobnobs; I'm providing the biscuits for after church tomorrow, and the house smells fab ;)

    Not too much else, am making the most of DH being here and in a great mood :rotfl::cool:;)

    Nice to see you back 1stepcloser

    Hope everyone is cosy in this cold weather

    Two timing the LSB...after waiting SIX YEARS for a 'bite'? Hardly Kaz!:p:rotfl:;););)

    Had a l-o-o-n-g telephone call with him which will have to suffice for our date this weekend; was expecting to have to see less of him over the winter *sigh*

    An Amazon parcel came so have wrapped MY bit of what was in it - the other item was for the LSB to give to his dad for xmas, after I told him that the book he was looking at in smiths would be cheaper on Amazon...
    am quite surprised that I am having to educate a Yorkshireman in the ways of MSE but there you go...
    While I was at it I wrapped about 15 other items, with the intention of thwarting the Vallikids when they go a-hunting, though I fear it may be too late...
    was it REALLY only a few years ago that I could have a HEAP of gifts in the bedroom and cover them with a sheet safe in the knowledge that the kids wouldn't even NOTICE them?
    *sighs deeply*

    Nice pic Mummyoffive...

  • Evening all. I've left it all to do tomorrow as usual, though I did clean the bathroom on Monday.

    Have managed not to vandalise any cars today...hugs spoons and sticks as approriate.

    Lil me - My Defender (with BFG offroads on) skidded a couple of times today and we have less than an inch :eek:. The Mazda will be staying at home :cool:.

    We have stripped the boys bedroom today, two new bunk beds installed. It looks like something out of Bad Girls. Several bags of junk removed form under old beds. Humph.

    lil me - hope things pick up for you soon my dear

    I'm off to Keswick in a pod in June.

    In a pod like a pea in a pod in the field in the countryside in the fresh air listening to Wimbledon and climbing the hills - can't wait!
