    Well, I emptied the bins upstairs and showed DD some of the tidy room pics and her room is looking a lot better..just the far coner now but I said she can leave that bit for now(you can't see it the other side of the bed!!!). Sat down to watch the film....dozed off for HH and then ate far too many crisps and dip watching the rest of the film!!
    The kitchen needs another quick wipeover as a result of my junk food cooking!!!
    I also need to put covers on DD's bed..............xx

    ETA I have remade DD's bed.next ad's I will dust the higher shelves in her room....xx

    Front room tideied and hoovered. I even put my piles and piles of cookery books away.:cool:

    Binbag filled with various paperwork that breeds in there.

    Tent from a couple of weekends ago finally folded up and put in its bag.

    Kitchen tidied courtesy of DD2 who is very happy as she found a tenner earlier.

    Just thinking I'm going to ditch the three binbags full of car boot clothes as I cba'd and they take up so much room. Wouldn't mind but last car boot we sold things, BNWT's for 10p...can't give the stuff away.:o

    Right, off to do some baking, cakes I reckon, in the mood for a bit of cake.

    Hoppy Birdday Carlsberg:bdaycake::beer:
    Sitting in hotel room in Brugge; will be going to the bar in a bit. Chap on reception recognised us from when we were here a few years back (not sure if that's a good thing or not:D) and has given us a voucher for a free drink each, based on our previous bar bill being "legendary":rotfl::beer::beer::beer:

    Ferry crossing was awful - NO disabled facilities, not even an Evac-chair, and there was no way I could get up two very steep staircases to the passenger deck, so had to spend the entire 4 hours sat in the car! Ferry company are going to be getting a VERY stiff letter!:mad: We told them when we made the booking in February that I'm a wheelchair user! *rolleyes*

    Not to worry - we're here now, that's what counts!;)

    Dailies done.
    Hoovered right through.
    S&Sed kitchen and bathroom.
    Washed coat and walking trousers.

    Walked to the coast and back. It was 6 miles there and back. The church there overlooks the sea. It was interesting to learn that Roman remains had been found when they did some work there.

    Resting my poor feet now.

    Carlsberggran Happy Birthday!

    Lady L Good weather vibes at Glasto for you.

    More clutter binned, rehomed or relocated. Some to the van, some the bin, some next door, some its rightful place.

    Changed the table round in the dining room, looks okish...not sure if its going to stay this way.

    Have located some curtains for dining room too to replace the one Fatty Arbuckle (hamster) ate.

    Tea on the way, doing fajita's and nachos.

    Oh and swept kitchen floor, another binbag filled in kitchen, gawd, where will it end!

    Hope your having a great time Lamewolf and happy birthday to Carlsberggran.

    Thank you all so much, bit worse for wear (oops alcohol related already!) but needed to come on here as I knew you lovely people would remember. Been a busy time with Chloe being one yesterday and Dan coming out of the army early - long story but I'm so proud that the army thought he deserved to come out early after last year or it would of been next April. I PROMISE to read and retain info better next week. Much love, hugs and spoons to those that need them xx

    Oh I do sympathise, shame the bill doesn't match in my case. I am trying to console myself with how much more expensive a mercedes main dealer would have been with a decent courtsey car.

    Nope, doesn't help :(

    Happ Birthday Carlsberg
