    Happy St George's Day all :)

    silvermaid - Enjoy your bar b q :)
    Dorastar - Hope your back feels better soon hunny x


    Well I've given DS2 paracetamol, put washing on and had breakfast :) I hope the washing is going be ok - didn't realise my furniture covers are removable until now, (haven't had it long and it's second hand so no instructions) I've taken a chance and chucked them in the machine on 30 degrees delicate wash so hopefully they will come out beautiful and clean :j and not fibre-less :eek: I shall report my findings back later :)

    Anyone for a HHC at about twenty five past?

    Jen :)

    Mumto5 have you tried asking Coast to ring around their stores? I used to do this all the time for customers when I worked for them as a student, and we offered a Coast by Post system if we managed to track one down.
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    Hmm lots of brown stuff coming away from furniture covers - hope it's dirt and not colour! If it's dirt they are going to be so lovely and clean when they are finished :j
    I'm ready for HHC to start at half past - anyone want to join me?

    Small world Dorastar and Cycling Yorkie.
    Many a happy day spent in Huyton, and in May 1986, I was 8 months married in a church just literally down the road from Sefton park. In fact the wedding reception was near there too.
    He turned out to be a complete KH. Marriage lasted 13 years. In fact KH doesn't do him justice.
    Ironing done.
    Anyway, off to the hairdressers.......back later x

    Well I didn't get a huge amount done in my HHC - just a big pile of dishes washed and some bottle of sauces,etc put away in cupboard but it's still a step closer to completing my list :) My furniture covers look like they're washing very nicely and I'm quite excited about it! Is that a good thing or am I just really sad,lol?!
    I've gotta go check on my little one now and make 2 phone calls before I carry on - might have another HHC in about 20 mins or so :)
