Had enough of ebay listing as I am starting to make mistakes, so I'll have another go tomorrow, at the moment not going car booting tomorrow as it is forcast for very heavy rains in the MK area, but that may chance of keeping an eye on the online forcasts

mamie~ that looks lovely well done.

Sammiel~ I hope it gets sorted soon. x

Goodintentions

Happy Birthday to Triker :beer:
Sammiel - I hope you get it sorted. Girls can be very nasty :mad: We have had issues with my DD and some of her friends (and ex-friends!)

Well, I have been to art and have drawn the flowers. I have started masking them and should be ready to slap some paint on next week Since getting home I have made lunch, washed the bathroom windows, cleaned the mirror & nearly finished cleaning the shower screen. DH has sorted DS's clothes & dismantled DD1's bed for a friend to take away (not sure where she is going to sleep when she gets home in June!) He is now trying to sort the mess that is the girls' room :eek: DS and I have been on safari in the garden to catch greenfly to feed to the newly-hatched ladybirds :T
Well, must get back to the shower screen

Afternoon/Evening

Minion has luurverly hair now. All funky and punky - well, lots of layers, a long fringe and quite rock n roll. Had to be whisked away to have my eyebrows threaded by the boss when 18 inches of hair was being lopped off the back :eek: Was tempted to get mine done, but not only does Minion hate waiting around for other people, I couldn't justify the expense when I have scissors at home.

No bus arrived and I could feel my already sunburned head start to throb, so had to stagger back home on foot. Blergh. Less than a s*dding mile and I feel like I'm at death's door.

Left her downstairs preening herself in the mirror and came up here to my still immaculate room for half an hour before I crash n' burn.

Hope everyone else's day is being kind to them - and, sammiell, make sure you take screen shots of the comments as 'I saw x on there' doesn't wash in the same way that an image showing a status update as 'Everyone wait for her after school and watch us give her a kicking' does.

kitchen now spotless - having a :coffee: while I wait for the floor to dry. I also discovered what the problem was with the shoe rack - loose bit, so have superglued it back. Have also fed (not by choice) somebody's tortoiseshell moggy...
Not seen Lamewolf or AnWs so hope you're both ok

had a good sale on e bay - slightly reworded product title did the job - cos last time it was listed (with a 99p start price) got nothing...now sold for £7.50!

Valli~~well done on the ebay sales, you will run out of items to sell soon!

Just potted on my 'grabbit' begonias from Sutton seeds, 3 trays x 48 per tray, happy to say I have 3 extra as well, so well worth just under £3 I paid for them inc postage.

But run out of potting compost and soil, so when (if) Focus DIY, have their closing down sale, I'll be one of the 1st in the Q to buy gardening stuff!

It has got very hot here, or else I am about to have a funny hot flush....
