  • thanks Toots :)

    Not done much flying today, but have been working for nearly 10 hours, so don't feel too guilty. DH was home today, and he didn't do much either, so I don't know what his excuse was! :p

    I have emptied the DW, reloaded, cooked roast chicken (DH did prep the veg earlier), washed up & vac'd the bedroom. I have also been trying to sort out my photos on the laptop, for work. I need to print photos for an a leaving album for the boy that is leaving (this week, or in 4 weeks - I am not sure which :mad:)

    Ok - I am off to search for tomorrow's list & see if there is anything I can cross off. Catch ya laters :)

    Being helpful? It'll take you a while to catch up with Valli though :cool:
  • Happy Birthday Valli :beer::bdaycake: Steak pudding sounds wonderful! My lot don't eat that sort of thing, but I love it!!

    I have sorted out my photos & printed off enough to fill a small album. They need to be put in tomorrow, and maybe little notes put in with details (names, dates, places). That shouldn't take long :)

    I have arranged for an electrician to come round tomorrow & give us a quote on putting electrics into the summerhouse. Once that is done, we can get it insulated and then start using it properly :j i can then sort out the cupboard under the stairs (we are getting there - slowly :))

    Hugs & spoons to those that need them.
    Night night all :D

    had a bit of drama this evening and had to call out an emergency glazier. basically bathroom window handle/lock came off in my hand leaving it open and unsecure :eek: so thankfully have home emergency cover thorugh the bank account and they paid for someone to come out and fix it :j:j:j well the handle isnt fixed as thats classed as wear and tear, but he has secured the window so no one can open it from inside or out which is the main thing.
