Evening all

Thanks to FCC for the thread. I'm in this week. Thank you for the idea, dorastar - I'll try something similar.

Have made tea for DS1 and me (DS2 was invited by NN) since coming back from the hospital and talked to a couple of friends. OH is still the same and no wiser as to what the problem is, so we're hoping that the tests tomorrow will shed light on the whole thing.

I might have a go at weeding out some clothes (cupboards are in a mess) and changing my bed in a bit, while I use youtube for music clips.

I am just prevaricating on here. It's what i do best

Seriously, I want to eat a frog before bed, then i can cross that off the list.

House is looking better, but there is still so much carpola here. Meant to ebay today but ran out of energy. Frog is more important ....
