    HC is the washing maching KC. It stands for the Hokey Cokey (the dance/song) eg

    You put the one load in
    One load out
    In, out, in, out,
    Shake it all about etc

    There is a song for the washing which I'm sure someone else can remember but it's gone out of my head at the mo.

    Good luck for your fairs Keiss.

    Glad the wind has died down a bit Pippi

  • Sticks head over fence and waves:wave:

    Anyone for a cuppa, it has a nip of whiskey in it;)

    My excuse is I have a cough and I have just come back from walking the doggies.

    Well we haven't had snow, sleet or sideways rain, but it is bl***dy cold. Never mind the washing hc, nothing was drying out there.

    I lost the plot with my lists this week, friend is having chemo is much better so we have been out a couple of times which has meant a couple of days I was working have been shelved, and today I got nothing done today coz I had such a carpy night sleep.

    I will reorganise myself later look at my lists and put the clean washing away.

    No wonder my school reports used to say "Louise must try harder":rotfl:

    Thank you. mine has alway been "I should have been a bear" I could hibernate from november to april - job done:D

    Glad you had a good day wombling pippi - and I now have to thank you because of the festive spirit all I can hear in my head is "Wishing you a Wombling Merry Christmas" :cool:

    Woolly jumper day for me. Off to garden centre to get Christmas tree with friend and a coffee and watch the ducks - we both like doing this. It is good to have friends with common interests...... I think........:rotfl:

    I'm frightening the life out of myself by watching the first part of the Robert Peston documentary about the financial crisis :eek: between that and the prospect of a 2 degree centigrade rise in temperature as the absolute minimum, all I can think of is Private Jones in Dad's Army: we're all doomed :eek::eek::eek:

    In the meantime, I shall declutter and save and feed myself - if my back's to the wall when the revolution comes, ah well, it weren't a bad old life! Its truly apocalyptic stuff ... oh dear, that does rather tie in to my love of disaster movies ... :rotfl: I think I'd better have another cup of coffee...:o:o:o
