    Hello everyone,

    DH is discovering the depths of the living room toybox. He's binned loads which is rather worrying.

    Hand injury is 8 days old and still scarily painful. I've been so ratty not helped by AF arriving yesterday.

    DD1 washed and dried my hair this morning.

    Welcome to the new flyers!

    Vanilla hope Rhys recovers quickly and the germs don't spread. Also hope your water problems get fixed.

    Does anyone know if there is a way of jumping to the last post you read? I end up reading everything again as I don't know where I left off?

    no doubt someone has answered this but if not look next to the title of the thread there is a little box think it might be a tick if you click on that rather than the title of the thread it should take you to the post you want to start reading from. Or you could do what I used to do to find my last post (to repeat your list, etc) make a note of page number and post number.

    edited to add
    also if you answer a post on say page 6 which then appears on page 14 If you click back arrow you should get back to where you were last reading very useful if like me you are trying to catch up on x amount of pages normally due to missing loads of pages (well Google chrome lets me do this)

    My livingroom is basically done. Just needs vacuuming & maybe a damp dust. Ex is on his way with DDs Christmas pressies from his family. He's bringing her home on the bus on Thursday so since he has a hire car today which he's had over christmas so he's bringing the gifts here to save on the messing around ;)

    Freegal peeps coming about 3.30 hopefully. :D

    (hugs) for those feeling the winter grumps, I'm trying to keep myself relaxed as I suffered with those last year. A walk in sunshine I find helps but we don't seem to have much of that.
    Hex oh no :( do you not have an Independant land rover specialist near you? Someone on https://www.landyzone.co.uk ***caution some users are a little funny/abrupt/rude lol thick skin required***
    Kezlou happy birthday

    I've had the laziest day ever, most I've done is read a little of a book I'm doing a review for and have a shower. The boys have been playing nicely but mainly separate, it's about now they get bored of each others company. No fighting so that's a plus.

    Today/tomorrow little plan

    Piggers list
    Bathroom overhaul - drag everything out, clean, sort everything, put all away nicely (not been done like that since we moved in)
    My bedroom floor - find it, could take a while
    Sort airing cupboard - find sheets for Mum while I am in there
    Sort the *rubbish box* into types of recyclables and put outside
    Sort laundry and put it all away
    Reorganise toys a bit better & decide what can be moved where in play room as the air hockey table is bigger than first thought
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
    GC: £200
    Slinkies target 2018 - another 70lb off (half way to what the NHS says) so far 25lb
