My internet's gone down and my tv so that's fun - engineer coming out on Thursday. So I'm now on my laptop rather than my PC. However, the LR is presentable - will just need another hoover on Friday if not before. Just need to sort the rest of the house now.

Hex - never been wrapped this early before and the fact that I have brought significantly less this year has helped to
It was my only window of time without DS3 about so I seized the moment.
Feeling really tired so I'm going to make a cuppa and do as the list says and sit and do nothing for a while then an early night, lots to try to acheive tomorrow.
