My 'ill' cat has been wildly chasing a spider around the front room... the spider won.. we think it climbed on his tummy and hid!

My fat stoopid cat is rolling about purring like a drill

another one tried icking in the middle room.

if I didn't have gammon for tomorrow I'd make cat pie!

Evening all

Hope all goes well tomorrow, greenbee.

I didn't manage to post again yesterday - internet has been driving me mad since Friday, as it's working only intermittently.

Since coming home I have made tea for DS2 and me, folded and put away 2 loads of towels, spend hours looking at car insurance quotes (big frog, but should be able to half the monthly bill :money:) and checked my bank account. I still need to check my work e-mails, write invites for DS2's party and write a shopping list for the costco trip tomorrow.

RANT ALERT
Also, I'm hopping mad. DH hardly ever uses the car and I have a budget for fuel, as I use it just about every day. However, during the bowling season the usage goes up quite a bit and I just found out today that he gets a contribution for fuel whenever he gives a team member a lift (£2 per person - it's an agreement within the whole team). Guess who doesn't get any of the money! :mad: I don't want to make a profit from it, but a bit extra to make up for the additional miles would be nice. In my opinion I shouldn't have to ask! Rant over.

Plan for the rest of the week:
Mon write birthday invites and shopping list
Tue phone dentist
phone MIL
ask DH to return item in town
costco shop
return item at Game in M'hall
buy eggs
see NN about selling a Gameboy DS to replace DS1's broken one
Wed wrap presents and write card for DS2
make cake
Jack Fulton shop
Thu DS2's birthday :j
former boss' leaving do after work (will show my face to be
supportive)
birthday tea at MIL's
packing list for holiday
Fri swimming lesson with DS2
pack
explain to NN's son about feeding the cat

I've not included any dailies in this - need to make sure all laundry is dry by tomorrow for DH to iron. Lots of non-iron stuff needs sorting and putting away, too. One last load to go in on Thursday, I think. No idea what the weather will be like next week.
Finally, I have another observation on Friday and lots of other stuff for work. Invitations first, though.
Night, all.
