Hi Guys :wave:
Hope you are all well, I am in this week, was in last week, just never posted I was, I finish work at 5 and have DS parents night at nursery then need to pick DD up from Gran so its prob going to be around 6.30 before I get home to make a start :eek:. I am also busy crafting for a christmast fayre but have been doing wee bits during my lunch hour. I ordered a steam generator iron thingy and 46" wide ironing board over a week ago and its still not here :mad: so I can get the mountain of ironing away. I am also off to Blackpool on Saturday for a Tinsel n Turkey party and do not want to come back to a mess on Sunday as I may be a bit worse for wear.
Take care for now and thanks to the new leaders for taking over the thread from Pigpen it would have been a sad loss if it had gone :T
