    Whoops!!!! - time went by. :eek:

    But I've made bread and pastry; updated my shopping list; done some paperwork; and done a little tidying round the kitchen. So an hour well spent....

    Am now going to open the greenhouse, do some picking of veg and salad, plant a tray of leeks, and aim to be back in for 12:30pm. First, though, some coffee.....

    (and have you noticed that the bathroom hasn't made it on the list yet?)

    Thanks I have seen it but it is for the online one and I really need the meetings, I've tried online - once paid for a whole year up front:mad: - and I just fell by the wayside. This way I have to show my face and get weighed:D

    Walk finished, ended up getting 10 pizza bases from the bakery whoopsies and some cocktail saus as I decided to make a pasta bake for tea, can make it in advance and leave DS with instructions to put in the oven at 6.30.

    Headache, and turning into a migraine, need drugs.:(
  • Morning all :)
    Must get off backside :) no really, I will :)
    Horse riding got canceled tonight, one horsey been lame since the weekend the other came up lame this morning .. boooooo! but get well soon Merlin and Harry :)

    Weightloss FINALLY moving, made and expensive couple of purchases (well DH did, I'd never have bought the kifit, but now he's got it for me, it's amazing :) really showed my exercise was lacking)

    Did yesterdays list :) :j
    Might have to revisit the kitchen though. :o
    Lounge looks like a laundry (tis raining) and is covered in dog biscuits as one of them pounced into a full bowl of food - Thanks poopies.
    will post an update in a bit.

    Yikes sooo many poorlies, Feel better folks!

    Posie vibes for CY's DD exam :)

    Piggers, could you tell them you have a food intolerance? And you need your own personal food? (I used to take my own food everywhere - mind you I have several intolerances) It's a great excuse to bring your own :)

    And Kaz - Decide what sort of skates you want first, I had 'normal' inlines and couldnt get on with them. I have a pair of Anarchy aggressive inlines. Which I prefer, but it's soooo personal choice. aggressive ones dont have heel stoppers, so you need to stop like on ice skates. I totally agree with the wristguards, Although I found that knee guards got in the way and elbow gaurds were bulky and awkward. Any time I've fallen it's been strait on to my hands and I've caught the rest of me. I only wear the wristies, totally personal choice though :)
    I used to skate early in the morning when I lived in newport, local park had a nice level path that was fairly flat and you could avoid the dog walkers :) And at lunch with a bunch of the lads when I worked in Cardiff. Here I dont skate as the council has put stones on all the paths :(
    In Swindon they have a skate night at the local leisure center, they seem to be on traditional inlines though. Might be worth checking there, they might also do lessons?
    Few of the blokes round here go.
    Age limit? :P never :) I'm in me thirties and I'm no way the youngest - besides who cares??? Do what you wanna do.

    Work today and meal out tonight, so very little flying to be done here. Why on the one day in ages I get to spend outside on site - does it rain?! What's all that about then!

    Will try and do some bits after meal, should be home by 9, but that's apprentice time! Am an addict for another year already!

    How did you get on Jinky67?

    In my HHC I swept & mopped the kitchen (it's a 21ft kitchen), de-gunked fluffy stuff in the bathroom & cleaned the floor in there aswell :D The kitchen used to take ages (I would do it in 2 halves :o) but it really is easier when you it regularly :j The bathroom really doesn't get done as often as it should :o I also took a phone call from DSs clarinet teacher to let me know the time of his Grade 1 exam next week, and I tried the charms on DD2s pandora bracelet that arrived this morning (they fit! :j) so they can be wrapped up for her birthday :) (I was told the cheap ones don't fit) After my HHC I then carried on and washed the filters on my hoover :j(after checking on the instructions that they are washable)

    I haven't even looked at the list today :eek:
    I have to go & post a letter (forms that I should have sent a month or 2 ago - one of my frogs!) and collect some Pampered Chef goodies from friend :D

    I will be back later :)

    kazwookie I loved my in-line skates but when i moved into my flat I had to get rid of them cause there is nowhere nearby to skate. They are great exercise. I had the ones that have inner and inner boot and kinda ski-boot looking with the big clip things - does that make sense :o and totally agree with JoJo - DON'T forget the wrist guards

    Valli Buy both :)

    Pixie You can do it - the trick is to just keep on top of everything and don't let it fall behind or you'll spend all your weekend cleaning

    Goodintentions Have you tried google-ing for an online manual
