    Morning ladies, need to get a wriggle on while i feel motivated!

  • Morning all.

    Serious case of CBA. I'm not even dressed!!!! Nothing done from any sort of list, unless there is a lazy list somewhere. If there isn't I should write one, I know lots about it. Kids are dressed though and fed, so that counts as doing something, doesn't it?

    Right….. shower.

    on another note apparently i am dim, rude and hostile! we really do have some lovely people on this forum! :rotfl:

    Ooooh you do sound horrible :p

    Having experienced an aggressive response to a simple question/comment I made on another thread (I was only just past 'newbie' stage and it quite upset me at the time)... and I am incredibly nosey :) ... I took a quick peek at the your 'accuser' as well as other posters there and I am amazed at how nasty people can get, very quickly, for no reason!! There seem to be many bitter people who can turn a thread into an opportunity for themselves to air a grievance only tenuously related to the original question. I've even seem some overly blunt and downright rude responses to newbies who still have their 'be nice' icons. Unbelievable.

    Now I am guilty of sidetracking the thread myself :rotfl:

    As far as flying is concerned I did nothing but the bare basics yesterday as I had a taxing day out in Brighton with the girlies, oh how I wish I had stayed at home and cleaned:p

    So my list so far is not looking too impressive but I will def get my butt in gear today.
