    Squeak has 2 inhalers, more AB's and an appointment in 2 week! And is happily chewing her big toe at the moment.. she is gross!!

    Gutter dude text and said he's coming tomorrow.. I am not holding my breath.. and it WOULD be tomorrow wouldn't it as I have a scan at 10am.. typical! But never mind.. so long as it get done!

    Food scoffed...

    Does anyone know of anywhere it is possible to buy Tiddles a summer jacket (7-8 yrs ish) nowhere seems to have them in now!

    Pest to be banished to her nest I think.

    Afternoon' all,

    I'm in again - thank you for the thread.

    Hoping the 'toothy' ones find some respite from their pains.

    It's our Silver wedding tomorrow, so we're going out for the afternoon after I finish work, then having more of a family & friends tea thing on Saturday. So not much flying tomorrow, but lots needs doing before Sat!

    Magnificent Monday ~ kitchen!

    Empty and wash out the bin.. make it smell sweet!
    Level Two

    Wipe over units and kickboards
    Sweep and mop the floor
    Level Three
    Sort and organise all the drawers in these rooms!..

    Thoroughly clean the fridge
    Wipe the table.. does it need a clean cloth

    love to all.....

    Am back from my errand run (called in at my sister's as it is her Pearl (30yrs) Wedding anniversary today )

    I have bought all my cards for the next month at a discount place so no fortune to be spent as I usually end up doing.

    Dry washing brought in. Must grab some lunch then do another HHC about 14.45
