Hi all
Plumber is here fitting new boiler. He removed the old one yesterday from lounge (new one going upstairs) dust sheets everywhere! My flylady wings have been clipped for the time being (still no hot water).
I have sanded and washed 90% of the woodwork in the kitchen and painted undercoat. Was intending to sand, wash and undercoat the other 10% but have woke up feeling light headed, even after 2 crumpets and 2 cups of tea the feeling hasn't abated.
Pigpen - Dot's name is beautiful. Hope DS3 is feeling much better
Seafarers - aren't you due soon? take it easy and try not to over do it.
euronorris - hope you feel 100% soon and happy knitting
Everyone else hope you are well xx0
