Going for a HHC at 9.45 if there are any takers? Didnt manage to score a lot off but also emptied DW, did dishes and emptied WM and put on TD.The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.Bertrand Russell0 -
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?

Thank you Honey Bear0 -
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
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.
