    That's it for me tonight, I've completed level one and all my daily's which is a triumph for me, and we spent well over 4 hours doing the garden - hopefully will get it finished tomorrow.

    Many thanks for keeping this thread going, I have a feeling it's going to help me a lot!

    Morning all!

    Has anyone heard from vanilla or Lady L? Hope they are both ok. Also thinking of toots.
    Welcome to any new flyers!

    Today I need to:
    fly and
    put recycling bins out
    deal with laundry downstairs (sort, put away)
    research home insurance
    go to library with DS2
    buy eggs
    phone job centre to ask about OH's sickness benefit claim
    DVLA form
    phone shopping centre to ask if my mobile has turned up and collect a new SIM card from t-mobile shop if not
    organised mum order

    It's sunny here today, so I'll finish breakfast and make a start. Will try to find something constructive for OH to do, too. Anyone for a HHC 9.30-10?

    No work today so hope to make some progress with the house. As I've out some washing on I guess I'll have to get the airing cupboard cleaned. It needs washing down from top to bottom to get rid of the plaster dust.

    Morning all,

    Ds1 has gone to Cardiff on the train with his friend. :eek: I'm still wondering if that was a good idea seeing as he can't get home from the next village without drama. His friend is very sensible and i've spoken to his Mum who thinks they'll be fine so i'm hoping they won't end up on the wrong train or something. :cool:

    I'm going to chuck some clothes on, do my dailies and then get stuck into the packing. I want the whole of downstairs packed (apart from the stuff we will need over the next few days) and the 2 understairs cupboards empty by the end of today.

    Holly - the day I stopped worrying (overmuch) about my kids was the day DD and her friends left HERE to go to Meadowhall via Sheffield and ended up in Stockport...
    they 'thought' the journey was 'taking a long time'... and the BR staff gave them no grief - they never got to Meadowhall that day. They wer 14 at the time. HTH

    Have posted my ebay - and have bids on 8 items - all at starting price but still...*fling*

    Going to Northampton today!
