    Nice and warm here...Thanks all xx

    We're above freezing for the frist time in 2 weeks, and everythign is beginning to thaw :)
    I completely understand that satisfaction being a woman with somewhat of a drainage history ;)

    We have a video of our drains - our only Dirty Video :rotfl:

    Pie's in the oven, with a cake :T DD should be on her way home, so can;t wait to get her in and then light the fire and lock the doors :) Sadly, our first choir concert of the evening, which was supposed to be tonight, has been cancelled :( Good thing really, as I should have left by now, and I wouldn't have been near ready :o

    Happy Birthday Mudders
