    Morning all

    Seafarers - I'm glad you got a good reply xxx

    Had a restless night. One minute I was boiling hot and kicking off the covers, next I was quite cold. Hope I'm not going down with DD's flu. I've just checked on her and she's feeling a bit better this morning so that's good. She's still taking the day off though which is wise.

    Wonder what the traffic will be like this morning....
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

    DW loaded and on. Need to get dressed and walk to the shop for eggs & broccoli. Also empty the bins... All freezers are now overflowing, so mealplanning is becoming vital!
