Frogs eaten this morning... CRB form completed (should have been done ages ago) so if I have time I'll drop it off at the school today. If not, I can do it on Wednesday. Pest control called and they're coming at lunchtime. One bathroom place called and booked for a visit on Thursday afternoon. Suppose I should call a few more!
Might try to get ahead on some work first though...0 -

Morning all,
Thanks to FCC.

I'm in but i don't know how much i'll get done today. I've taken Dss to the Dr's to get his dressing changed and to have a tetanus. I've got to work now and at 1.00 am going to Ds2's school to do some parents learning with your child thingy. Then i'm helping out with gardening club until 4.00. So i'll try and fit some flying around that.

Calculate cost for underfloor heating and new floor in back room Compare heating added to CH system vs electric (currently concrete floor with underlay and carpet and it is freezing)
I'd be interested to know the results of this. All my floors are concrete but with very cheap or no underlay. I find the LR is the worst.toottifrootti wrote: »SSL yes tobermory was the scottish one but he is the craftsman and thats not me I think I will be Cousin Cairngorm MacWomble the Terrible:rotfl: that sounds about right for me!!! probably wont be able to get an avvi though as he is only from the film and 2nd tv series:(
I think I was about 5 and my aunt, 14 at the time, took me to the park. I picked up some litter and shouted at some kids 'dont litter, be a womble!!!!!' :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Aunt was mortifiedgunsandbanjos wrote: »I got married on a wednesday:)

Where has this morning gone? :eek:
Majorly overslept, did a HHI while DD had brekkie as I forgot to iron her uniform yesterday, checked bank, email and eaten myself when I got home from school. Now I have to try and find all the various bits of paperwork I need to do today. Usually I am so organised I can put my hands on anything, don't know whats got into me.
Off to put a wash load on, and then find the forms. Will come back around lunch time when I might start on the housework! :wave:Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0
