    Afternoon

    Weather here is a bit funny rained this moring, then got brighter, then rained again and is now sunny but there is a chill in the air.

    Didn't bother hanging any washing out as i didn't know if it would rain again.

    I've S&W the kitchen and bathroom
    Hoovered around
    Taken food out the freezer for dinner.

    Kids are watching the new HP movie and I am planning on watching tonight with OH when kids are in bed.

    I'm back in work tomorrow night so wont be posting much over the next few days.

    Have a good day everyone.

    Hello everyone :wave:

    Back home again, good journey with no hold ups. Chaos now reigns until Thursday :o

    :bdaycake: Mr Bitsy and Miss Moneysaver

    Caravan unpacked of food, and lunch of pork pie and scotch eggs from while we were away eaten, have some pork loin thawed, trying to decide how to do it for tonight. Weekend towels/tea towels in the WM, will switch it on later, and get another load on so I can get them out in the morning. Think I need a few warmer things in the 'van for the next fortnight, providing it stays mainly dry we will be happy, visiting Lincolnshire and North Norfolk.

    Tired, though I do not know why as not really done much today :cool:

    TF - Don't know about attracting bidders, I was nodding half way through. :rotfl::rotfl:

    Bbird does Mr Grumpy expect to be fed while carrying on like a kid? Doubt if he would at DG towers, and if he did it would the least favourite meal ;)

    Take care all. DG

    evening!

    been a busy few days and not had time to post or read the thread but thought I'd just pop on while tea is cooking.

    Tea is a quickie of fish, chips and peas as been at work since 7am and CBA to cook:D
    Washing is dry - will iron it tomorrow morning before work.
    house tidy(ish)

    DS1 and his partner have moved into another flat together but this time everything is in the partners name - as DS got left with all the bills last time and we dont want that again!

    Not had any time to do any painting - might manage an hour tomorrow if I'm lucky - hall, stairs and landing need 3 coats, done abou half that so far and still got all the woodwork and doors to do!:eek: might be done by Christmas:D

    Hope eveyone's ok, will try and catch up x

    Had a lovely day in Stratford although £2 "donation" (what a nerve using that term since there is man sitting by the entrance who won't let you past unless you pay grrrrr) is a bit steep to see basically flagstone of Shakespeare and a few of his family <rollseyes>
    Still had a lovely few hours with the kids in the park, new equipment to play on, sandpit etc. Weather was kind to us so all has been good. Kids are shattered though, good luck to my mum and dad who are babysitting tonight ;)

    Happy birthday to Miss Mummysaver, clearly a good day to be born on :)

    Candy - glad you get to see Boo, as for SOTD, kill her with kindness. In your best teenager voice just go "whatever" making the VV with your hands LOL Sorry to hear about your family friend, thinking of her poor daughter and all that knew her xxx

    Evening all

    Donny-gal - where are you going in North Norfolk? We're away in Norfolk this weekend too!

    Hope everyone with grumpy DH's/partners kick them into touch.

    DH not home from work yet, he's just phoned to say he's on his way, so have put the dinner on, no kids, was hoping for a nice evening together etc!!! my luck might still be in, been a long day, nice glass of chilled white going down nicely, I'm really hungry too, decided to wait and eat with DH.

    Weather went horrible earlier, but now has settled down again, but much more blowy and chilly, did attempt to rain but didn't really amount to much.

    Have a great evening everyone, hugs to those that need/want them.

    Kind regards
