    Oooh Woody has turned up to have his breakfast. Didn't think he would be awake so early, just goes to show what I know..lol.

    Ok back from HHC, am now showered and semi dressed..lol. The grey top I wanted I thought I had washed I hadn't. But then I couldn't see it in the laundry basket so was hunting everywhere for it, till it dawned on me it was washed last night.. Doh my memory is terrible. Now I'll have to hunt out another top.. Also means I have to change undies too as they won't look too good under a white top..:p:rotfl:

    Made the bed and generally picked the crud up while I was upstairs.

    Going to make a cuppa, wash up and then hunt a top out of the wardrobe. Although I suppose I could always do the ironing in my bra and skirt..who will know..well apart from people walking down my road, but I think the net curtains shield a lot..hmmmm!! See you all in about a couple of hours when Chris Evans is finished and hopefully I should have made a considerable dent in the ironing pile :D :rotfl:

    I was up and out on my run... Which hurt. My bruised abs (from massage) didn't like it, and neither did my right hip.

    I'm going to put some washing on, have breakfast and then alternate work and flying until 10 when my calls start. And ignore the silly sales person in Taiwan who has been calling and emailing and messaging and testing constantly to get me to talk to her client (having done the same to two of my colleagues who are now refusing to talk to her).

    Gunsnbanjos, we've got an iPad too; great aren't they! The kids love using it too and S happily plays on the Toy Story and Green Eggs & Ham games! Check out the night sky app - it's brilliant :)!

    Will have a look at that thanks. I love it, i have an iphone so knew it would be good but even still i'm very impressed with it. Just downloaded the Kindle app for it which kills 2 birds with one stone as he was going to buy me a kindle instead but thought i'd prefer an ipad:D Erm, yes, yes i do.

    Hope all goes well today JoJo:A Will keep my fingers crossed for good results. The good thing about things like that is the results are immediate, no waiting around for bloods to come back etc.

    Hope everyone is ok, will endeavour to get more flying done today. Need to pick my newly fixed car up today, hope it looks ok:o

    only got a couple of bits from yeterday which i will do in a bit and then get cracking with todays list

    In addition, I also need to:

    chase a payment (they have said Friday but we would prefer it sooner..)

    phone council to pick up the sofa (it stinks of cat pee and neither dh nor I can stand being on it so right now, its a bit of a white elephant in the room)
    bit gutted over this because the last sofa we had was thrown out after the cat ruined it but it was a cheapy. (still £400 for the suite but about four years old) We were without a sofa throughout my last preg. I had a camping chair which absolutely killed my spd. the new sofa arrived the same day as my dd (who was a home birth)

    now, I am going to be without a sofa again at the end of my preg but in my cross state, I have told dh i don't want to spend any more on a sofa until we are rid of the cat but he is only eight years old so we could have another eight years before he is gone. however, we might have enough room for a dining table.. lol
