    Good evening - I'm so glad it's Friday :j:j:j:j I have family coming tomorrow, so I'll be baking cakes, quiches, and sourdough bread :D I also need to make up our room for them (they have back trouble, and can't manage the futon in the spare room, so DH and I will move in there ;) ).

    Going to look for alist, and plan my day tomorrow :)

    Hugs all round :A

    me too:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

    been to Mr Ms because I have run out of cat litter so tray 1 is washed and drying and tray 2 is about to be
    bins emptied (as it's black bin day tomorrow)
    pots are washed (so that's a plus)

    not in the same water I hasten to add - actually not even in the same bowl - I have a spare bowl which is used for washing unspeakable things ie gerbil cages and litter trays ;)

    Please banish all thoughts of pegs from your mind, and never mention them again, or Valli will have you within her spell and initiate you into her cult :eek:

    When hanging washing do you insist on matching pegs :oPlease say no :p

    Haha no! When hanging out the washing im usually running late to get somewhere or one child or another is demanding my attention...I dont have time to think about such things!! I pick a peg and an item and hang whatever it is with whatever peg I have...! I do however prefer plastic ones to wooden ones...! :)
